Next time

Arrival

Track the centreline through touchdown using small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway.

What happened: The aircraft touched down off the centreline at 8.5 m, and drifting off centreline at touchdown usually carries through into the rollout, as it did here with alignment reaching 6.5 m.

Watch for: Watch runway centreline position, keeping deviation inside the limit through touchdown and rollout.

See Arrival LandingArrival Rollout

Ground control varies with speed, full authority at walking pace, progressively reducing as groundspeed rises. The aircraft becomes twitchy at any speed, every small pedal input swings the nose, which can encourage large-amplitude leg inputs that no real aircraft would accept.

During the departure roll the aircraft used 2,200 m of runway, representing 49 % of the available length, and rotated at 96 kt. Ambient conditions were 22 °C with a wind of 9 kt from 090°, providing a 7 kt headwind and a 6 kt crosswind component.

Climb commenced 3 miles south of Tizayuca (Estado de Hidalgo, Mexico). The airplane ascended from 8,685 ft asl to 15,966 ft asl, a gain of 7,282 ft achieved in 8 minutes while covering 25 nm.

The first level cruise began 1 mile north east of San Bernardino (Estado de Mexico, Mexico) and continued for 55 minutes, during which 215 nm were flown.

Descent started 41 miles south west of MMAA Aeropuerto Internacional Juan N. Álvarez Ciudad de Acapulco (Estado de Guerrero, Mexico). The flight descended from 15,947 ft asl to 7,922 ft asl, a loss of 8,025 ft in 8 minutes over 37 nm.

A brief cruise segment followed 4 miles south west of the same airport, lasting 2 minutes and covering 5 nm.

The second descent began overhead MMAA Aeropuerto Internacional Juan N. Álvarez Ciudad de Acapulco, dropping from 8,056 ft asl to 1,692 ft asl, a decrease of 6,364 ft in 7 minutes while traveling 17 nm.

Final approach to runway 28 at MMAA Aeropuerto Internacional Juan N. Álvarez reduced altitude from 1,728 ft agl to 478 ft agl in 134 seconds, and the aircraft scored on the stabilisation gates.

Landing on runway 28 was executed on a runway 3,298 m long. The threshold speed was 106 kt, touchdown occurred at 399 m down the runway with a speed of 103 kt, and the vertical speed at touchdown was minus 198 fpm. The touchdown point was laterally offset by 8.3 m from the centreline. Local weather at the time was 30 °C with a wind of 11 kt from 100°, a 1 kt crosswind and a 10 kt tailwind component.

The total landing distance recorded was 1,530 m, representing 46 % of the runway, and the rollout remained slightly misaligned by 8.3 m from the centreline.

After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 2 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.

Landing report
Landing on runway 28 at MMAA Aeropuerto Internacional Juan N. Álvarez in the Douglas DC-6
Landing Score 96.56 %
Landing Summary

The PC-12 aircraft successfully landed on runway 03R at MPTO Tocumen International Airport, achieving an overall score of 85.7%. The final approach was initiated from the southwest, heading 29.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,074 feet above ground level (agl).

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 550 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a significant deviation from the target. The touchdown speed of 89 knots was also faster than the target, indicating that the pilot may have been unable to fully arrest the aircraft's descent before touchdown. However, the touchdown rate was smooth, with a rate of -129 feet per minute (fpm), which suggests that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the landing.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 4.8 meters, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's approach path or a minor issue with the aircraft's directional control. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 24°C and a wind speed of 0 knots at 360°, resulting in no crosswind or headwind components.

The total landing distance of 1,821 meters was 60% of the runway length, which is a relatively long distance considering the aircraft's size and the runway's length. However, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and bring it to a stop in a safe and controlled manner.

Overall, while the landing was not perfect, the pilot was able to bring the aircraft to a safe stop and maintain control throughout the landing process. However, there are areas for improvement, such as reducing the touchdown speed and improving the approach path to ensure a more accurate touchdown within the designated zone.
