Next time

Departure

Rotate the moment the speed tape reaches 122 kt, not after it.

What happened: Rotation was held until 141 kt, 19 kt past the 122 kt rotation target. Carrying that much extra speed into rotation usually adds unwanted energy right at liftoff.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator against the 122 kt rotation target.

See Departure Roll

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.

During the departure roll on runway 10, the Pilatus PC-24 accelerated through a takeoff distance of 1,071 m, representing 47 % of the runway length, and lifted off at 142 kt. Ambient conditions were 30 °C with a wind of 18 kt from 150°, including a 17 kt cross-wind component and a 7 kt head-wind component.

The first en-route climb commenced 1 mile south of Marigot, climbing from 955 ft asl to 23,928 ft asl, an altitude gain of 22,973 ft achieved in 9 minutes while covering 39 nm.

A brief level cruise followed, beginning 30 nm north-west of The Bottom and lasting 2 minutes for a distance of 9 nm.

The second climb segment started 39 nm north-west of The Bottom, raising the aircraft from 24,026 ft asl to 40,009 ft asl, an increase of 15,983 ft over 11 minutes and a ground track of 64 nm.

Subsequently, a prolonged cruise was flown from a point 9 nm south of Cyril E. King Airport, lasting 295 minutes and covering 1,447 nm.

Descent began 4 nm south-east of Huite, with the aircraft descending from 40,008 ft asl to 11,011 ft asl, a loss of 28,997 ft in 16 minutes while traversing 102 nm.

A short cruise interval followed, originating 2 nm west of Patzite, lasting 2 minutes and spanning 7 nm.

The next descent segment started 1 nm west of Totonicapan, dropping from 10,806 ft asl to 8,672 ft asl, a decrease of 2,134 ft in 4 minutes and covering 14 nm.

On final approach to runway 05 at Quezaltenango Airport, the aircraft approached from the south-west on a heading of 40.0° at 3 nm and 868 ft agl.

Landing on runway 05, which is 1,902 m long, the threshold speed was recorded slightly above target at 127 kt. Touchdown occurred 247 m down the runway at 120 kt with a vertical speed of minus 241 fpm; the touchdown point was offset 7.1 m from the centreline. Weather at the time was 24 °C with a wind of 14 kt from 360°, including an 11 kt cross-wind and a 9 kt head-wind component.

The total landing roll measured 835 m, representing 44 % of the runway, and the rollout alignment was noted as 18.4 m off the centreline.

After exiting the runway, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in less than 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm.

In summary, the flight covered a total of 1,689 nm, required 336 minutes of elapsed time, and consumed 753 kg of fuel.

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.
