Landing on runway 05 at MGQZ Quezaltenango Airport in the Pilatus PC-24

Landing Score 90.78 %

Landing Summary

On final approach to runway 05 at MGQZ Quezaltenango Airport the Pilatus PC-24 was established from the south-west on a heading of 40.0° at 3 NM and 868 ft AGL. Local conditions were 24 °C with a wind of 14 kt from 360°, giving a 9 kt headwind and an 11 kt crosswind component. The aircraft maintained a good threshold height throughout the approach.

The threshold speed was slightly above target at 127 kt as the aircraft entered the flare. The flare was executed with the aircraft positioned for a stable touchdown.

Touchdown occurred 247 m down the runway at a speed of 120 kt, both described as good. The vertical rate at touchdown was fair at minus 241 fpm. The touchdown point was slightly misaligned by 7.1 m from the centreline.

The total landing distance was 835 m, representing 44 % of the 1 902 m runway, and the rollout ended with a centreline deviation of 18.4 m. All other parameters remained within acceptable limits.

To tighten the already strong performance, focus on reducing the lateral deviation at touchdown and during rollout to keep alignment within a few metres of the centreline, and fine-tune the approach to achieve the exact target threshold speed. Maintaining the current stable approach and speed control will preserve the high overall score.
