The flight began with a departure roll from runway 26 at LSGK Saanen Airfield, a small airfield located in the Canton de Berne, Switzerland. The aircraft, a PC-24 Air Ambulance, accelerated down the runway and lifted off at a speed of 104 kt, covering a distance of 479 m, which was 62% of the runway's length. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 13 °C and a gentle headwind of 8 kt from the northwest.

As the aircraft climbed away from the airfield, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead LSGK Saanen Airfield. The climb was steep, with the aircraft ascending from 4,006 ft above sea level to 12,020 ft in just 4 minutes, covering a distance of 6 nm. This impressive climb rate allowed the aircraft to quickly gain altitude and establish a safe cruising altitude.

The enroute level cruise phase of the flight began 3 miles west of Lenk, another town in the Canton de Berne. During this phase, the aircraft maintained a steady altitude of 12,020 ft and flew for 7 minutes, covering a distance of 33 nm. This cruise phase was likely used to allow the crew to rest and prepare for the next phase of the flight.

As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent, which started 3 miles northwest of Brienz. The descent was steep, with the aircraft descending from 12,011 ft to 2,054 ft in just 6 minutes, covering a distance of 21 nm. This rapid descent allowed the aircraft to quickly lose altitude and prepare for landing.

The final approach to runway 24 at LSZC Buochs Airport was made from the northeast, with the aircraft flying at a heading of 247.0 ° and an altitude of 573 ft above ground level. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 17 °C and a gentle tailwind of 9 kt from the east.

The landing was smooth and controlled, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 100 kt. The touchdown point was 195 m beyond the touchdown zone, which was a relatively short distance. The touchdown rate was perfect, at -33 fpm, and the runway touchdown alignment was also perfect. The total landing distance was 1,103 m, which was 59% of the runway's length.

After landing, the aircraft rolled out of the runway, maintaining a very good alignment. The total flight distance was 63 nm, and the flight took 21 minutes to complete. The aircraft used 269 kg of fuel during the flight, which was a relatively efficient use of resources.

Landing on runway 24 at LSZC Buochs Airport in the PC-24 Air Ambulance

Landing Score 96.92 %

Landing Summary

The PC-24 Air Ambulance successfully landed at LSZC Buochs Airport, achieving a high score of 96.9%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north east, heading 247.0° at 1 nautical mile and 573 feet above ground level (agl). This indicates a precise and controlled approach, setting the stage for a smooth landing.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 24, which has a length of 1,875 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 112 knots. The touchdown point was 195 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation but still within acceptable limits. The touchdown speed of 100 knots was also good, indicating that the aircraft was able to slow down effectively before touching down.

The touchdown rate of -33 feet per minute (fpm) was perfect, demonstrating excellent control and precision during the landing. The runway touchdown alignment was also perfect, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 17°C and a wind speed of 9 knots at 67°. This resulted in a crosswind of 0 knots and a tailwind of 9 knots, which did not significantly impact the landing.

The total landing distance of 1,103 meters was 59% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. This indicates that the pilot was able to slow down the aircraft effectively and maintain control throughout the landing. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, demonstrating excellent control and precision during the rollout phase.

Overall, the landing of the PC-24 Air Ambulance at LSZC Buochs Airport was a success, with the aircraft achieving a high score of 96.9%. The precise and controlled approach, smooth touchdown, and excellent control during the rollout phase all contributed to this excellent result.
