Arrival Final 1

Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 08 at LSGK Saanen Airfield, a DHC-2 Beaver aircraft taking to the skies. The takeoff distance covered 523 meters, which was 67% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 80 knots, marking the start of the aircraft's ascent.

As the aircraft climbed, it encountered local weather conditions of 16°C temperature and a wind speed of 10 knots at 26 degrees. The crosswind component was 8 knots, while the headwind component was 6 knots. The enroute climb started overhead Saanen, Canton de Berne, Switzerland, where the aircraft ascended from 4,036 feet above sea level to 4,787 feet, an increase of 751 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles.

The enroute descent began 3 miles northeast of Saanen, where the aircraft descended from 4,788 feet to 3,434 feet, a decrease of 1,354 feet in 4 minutes, covering another 3 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 14 at LSTS Sankt Stephan Airfield was initiated from the northwest, heading 120.0 degrees at 1 nautical mile and 122 feet above ground level.

The landing on runway 14 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 202 meters, which was good considering the runway length of 917 meters. The threshold speed was slightly below the target at 58 knots, while the touchdown speed was 54 knots, which was also good. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -251 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.3 meters from the centerline.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 15°C temperature and a wind speed of 10 knots at 11 degrees. The crosswind component was 8 knots, while the tailwind component was 6 knots. The total landing distance was 495 meters, which was 54% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 24.5 meters from the centerline.

After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area from the runway in less than 1 minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 7 nautical miles, which was completed in 8 minutes, using 11 kilograms of fuel.

Landing on runway 14 at LSTS Sankt Stephan Airfield in the DHC-2 Beaver
Landing Score 81.03 %
Landing Summary

The DHC-2 Beaver aircraft successfully landed at LSTS Sankt Stephan Airfield, achieving an overall score of 81.0%. The final approach to runway 14 was initiated from the north-west, with the aircraft heading 120.0° at 1 nautical mile and 122 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot successfully navigated the aircraft onto the runway, with a good threshold height and a touchdown speed that was slightly below the target at 58 knots.

The touchdown distance of 202 meters was considered good, and the touchdown speed of 54 knots was also within acceptable limits. However, the touchdown rate of -251 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, indicating that the aircraft may have touched down slightly harder than desired. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.3 meters from the centreline, which may have contributed to the slightly higher touchdown rate.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 15°C, with a wind speed of 10 knots at 11°. The crosswind component was 8 knots, while the tailwind component was 6 knots. These conditions may have affected the aircraft's performance and handling during the landing.

The total landing distance of 495 meters was 54% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 24.5 meters from the centreline, which may have been a result of the slightly off-centre touchdown position. Overall, the landing was considered successful, but there were some areas for improvement, particularly in terms of touchdown rate and runway rollout alignment.
