The Beechcraft A36 Bonanza successfully landed at KBDU Boulder Municipal Airport, achieving a near-perfect score of 99.9%. The aircraft approached the runway from the west, heading 89.0° at a distance of 1 nautical mile and an altitude of 460 feet above ground level (agl). This indicates a precise and controlled approach, with the pilot maintaining a steady heading and altitude.
Upon reaching the runway, the aircraft touched down smoothly, with a touchdown speed of 65 knots being well within the acceptable range. The threshold speed of 72 knots was also met, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed during the final stages of the approach. The touchdown distance of 719 feet was also satisfactory, given the runway length of 3,875 feet.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 44°F, which is relatively cool. However, this did not appear to affect the aircraft's performance or the pilot's ability to execute a smooth landing. The touchdown rate of -118 feet per minute (fpm) was also smooth, indicating that the aircraft was brought to a stop quickly and safely.
One of the most impressive aspects of this landing was the perfect runway touchdown alignment. This suggests that the pilot was able to maintain a steady heading and altitude throughout the approach, and that the aircraft was aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown. This level of precision is a testament to the pilot's skill and experience, and is a key factor in ensuring a safe and successful landing. Overall, this landing was a textbook example of a well-executed approach and landing, with the pilot demonstrating a high level of proficiency and control.
