The Cessna Longitude aircraft successfully landed on runway 21L at KLSV Nellis Air Force Base, but there were some areas for improvement in the landing performance. The final approach was initiated from the north-east, heading 219.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,420 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on the runway, which has a length of 10,048 feet, with a good threshold height.
However, there were some issues with the landing speed. The threshold speed was too high at 139 knots, which is above the recommended speed for a safe landing. Additionally, the touchdown speed was also too fast at 137 knots, indicating that the pilot may have been unable to slow down the aircraft sufficiently before touchdown. The touchdown rate was firm at -318 feet per minute (fpm), which is within the acceptable range.
The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 32 feet from the centreline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's alignment during the final approach. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 64°F and a light wind of 2 knots at 270°. The crosswind was minimal at 2 knots, and the headwind was 1 knot, which did not significantly affect the landing performance.
The total landing distance was 1,818 feet, which is 18% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the pilot was able to control the aircraft's descent and touchdown effectively. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 32 feet from the centreline, which may have been due to the same deviation in alignment during the final approach.
Overall, the Cessna Longitude aircraft performed a safe landing on runway 21L at KLSV Nellis Air Force Base, but there were some areas for improvement in terms of landing speed and alignment. The pilot's ability to control the aircraft's descent and touchdown was good, but there is room for improvement in terms of precision and control during the final approach and rollout phases.
