Hold the approach speed

Arrival Final 1

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.

Flight narrative

The flight began with the departure roll from runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport, where the C408 SkyCourier Cargo aircraft took off with a takeoff distance of 463 meters, which accounted for 26% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 94 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 269 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 2 knots.

As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb 1 mile northwest of Croy, a location in the Highland region of Scotland. The climb took place from an initial altitude of 1,027 feet above sea level to a final altitude of 455 feet above sea level, representing an increase of 572 feet in just 3 minutes. The aircraft covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile during this climb phase.

The final approach to runway 05 at EGPE Inverness Airport was initiated from a heading of 47.0 degrees, which was approximately from the southwest. The aircraft was at an altitude of 417 feet above ground level and was 1 nautical mile away from the runway threshold. The landing on runway 05 was successful, with the aircraft touching down 185 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 75 knots, which was within the target range, and the touchdown rate was smooth at -128 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was also very good.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 270 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 1 knot and a tailwind of 2 knots. The total flight distance was 2 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 4 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 24 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing Summary

The aircraft in question, a Cessna 408 SkyCourier Cargo, successfully landed at EGPE Inverness Airport, Scotland. The final approach to runway 05 was initiated from the southwest, with the aircraft heading at 47.0° and at an altitude of 417 feet above ground level (agl) and 1 nautical mile from the runway.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 185 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is slightly outside the ideal landing spot. However, the touchdown speed of 75 knots was within the acceptable range, indicating a controlled descent. The touchdown rate of -128 feet per minute (fpm) was also smooth, suggesting a well-executed landing.

The runway threshold height at 73 feet agl was above the target, which may have contributed to the slightly longer touchdown distance. Additionally, the threshold speed of 96 knots was slightly above the target, but still within the safe operating range. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway during the landing.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 16°C and a gentle wind of 2 knots from 270°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, and the tailwind component was 2 knots, which may have contributed to the slightly longer touchdown distance. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with a score of 75.1%.
