Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 9,858 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 474 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Horten Ho229 aircraft departed from runway 15 at Kurumoch International Airport, UWWW, with a takeoff distance of 194 feet, which accounted for 2% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 73 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 46 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 5 knots from a direction of 159 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 0 knots and a headwind of 5 knots.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, reaching an altitude of 540 feet above sea level from an initial altitude of 1,003 feet. This climb was achieved in just 1 minute, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft's climb performance was impressive, with a vertical gain of 464 feet in a short period of time.
The final approach to runway 15 was made from the north, with the aircraft heading in a direction of 160.0 degrees at an altitude of 110 feet above ground level and a distance of 0 nautical miles from the runway threshold. The landing was executed smoothly, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 73 knots and a touchdown rate of -144 feet per minute. The touchdown distance was 470 feet, which was well within the acceptable limits, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The landing distance, including the rollout, was 1,057 feet, which accounted for 11% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking 3 minutes to cover a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 3 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 5 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 32 pounds of fuel during the flight. Overall, the flight was executed smoothly and efficiently, with the aircraft performing well in the given weather conditions.
The Horten Ho 229, a German experimental tailless aircraft, has successfully landed at Kurumoch International Airport, UWWW, with an impressive score of 99.2%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north, heading 160.0° at an altitude of 110 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway threshold.
As the aircraft began its final approach, it maintained a steady heading and altitude, aligning perfectly with the runway. The landing was executed on runway 15, which has a length of 9,858 feet, providing ample space for the aircraft to touch down safely. The threshold height was good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct altitude as it approached the runway.
The threshold speed, however, was slightly above the target speed of 83 kt, but this did not seem to affect the overall performance of the landing. The touchdown distance of 470 feet was good, and the touchdown speed of 73 kt was also within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate of -144 fpm was smooth, indicating a gentle and controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 46°F and a gentle headwind of 5 kt from 159°. The crosswind was negligible, with a speed of 0 kt. These conditions likely contributed to the smooth and controlled nature of the landing.
The total landing distance of 1,057 feet was only 11% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft touched down and came to a stop quickly and efficiently. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, with the aircraft maintaining a straight and steady course as it taxied to a stop.
Overall, the landing of the Horten Ho 229 at Kurumoch International Airport was a success, with the aircraft performing well in a variety of conditions. The high score of 99.2% reflects the skill and precision of the pilot, as well as the capabilities of the aircraft itself.
