Landing on runway 34 at KOQU Quonset State in the B-2 Spirit

Landing Score 90.43 %

Landing Summary

Overall, the aircraft landing score of 90.4% is a commendable achievement, showcasing strong skills and proficiency in various phases of the landing process. While there were areas that could be improved upon, such as the approach phase with poor descent path above glideslope limit and heading alignment, the landing phase demonstrated excellent threshold height and perfect landing flare technique.

In the touchdown phase, it is encouraging to see a fair touchdown rate, even though the speed was slightly above the target. The touchdown distance being inside the touchdown zone is a positive sign of good control during the landing. The small deviation of 12 ft from the runway's centreline is a minor issue that can be easily corrected with practice and focus.

Moving on to the rollout phase, the runway alignment being 11 ft from the centreline shows a need for improvement in maintaining a straight path after touchdown. However, this can be rectified through practice and improved technique.

Overall, this landing score of 90.4% is a strong result that showcases a high level of proficiency and skill. With continued practice and focus on areas that need improvement, there is great potential to further enhance and refine the landing technique for even better scores in the future. Keep up the good work and continue striving for excellence in every aspect of aircraft operation.
