The DA40-XLS aircraft successfully landed on runway 05 at EGPE Inverness Airport, achieving a score of 77.5%. The landing was carried out under favorable local weather conditions, with a temperature of 16 °C and a gentle wind of 2 kt at 269°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 kt, while the tailwind component was 2 kt, which did not significantly impact the landing.
The threshold height at 80 ft agl was well above the target, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain a safe altitude during the approach. The threshold speed of 74 kt was slightly above the target, but still within a safe margin. The touchdown point was 176 m beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively safe distance, considering the runway length of 1,814 m.
The touchdown speed of 58 kt was good, indicating that the pilot was able to control the aircraft's descent and maintain a stable approach. The touchdown rate of -66 fpm was excellent, demonstrating the pilot's skill in managing the aircraft's descent and minimizing the impact on landing. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain a stable and aligned approach.
Overall, the landing was successful, with the pilot demonstrating good control and management of the aircraft during the approach and landing. However, the slightly above-target threshold speed and touchdown point beyond the touchdown zone may indicate some room for improvement in the pilot's technique.
