Departure Roll — Takeoff Bounce at 20 %, Runway alignment max 18.53 m at 44 %, −3.16 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown distance was 1,737 m at 0 %, Landing Bounce at 20 %, −2.66 points

Top opportunity

Keep the approach speed on target

Arrival Landing

Every knot above Vref is stored kinetic energy, and energy stored at the threshold must be dissipated in ground effect before the aeroplane will stop flying. Because kinetic energy scales with the square of speed, the excess you must dissipate grows fast. At a 45-knot approach, five knots hot is over a tenth more speed and roughly a quarter more energy to get rid of in ground effect. This is why the fix is never in the flare. It was decided three miles earlier, on final, at the airspeed indicator.

Landing on runway 25L at PANC Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport in the Taylorcraft BC-12D
Landing Score 58.67 %
Landing Summary

The Taylorcraft BC-12D approached runway 25L at PANC in 20 °C conditions with a wind from 227° at 3 kt, including a 2 kt headwind and a 2 kt crosswind, and prepared for landing on the 3,762 m runway.

During the threshold and flare phase the threshold height was recorded at 95 ft AGL, which was significantly above the target, and the threshold speed was excessively high at 87 kt.

Touchdown occurred 1,334 m beyond the designated touchdown zone; the aircraft’s speed at touchdown was 44 kt, described as good, and the vertical rate was perfect at minus 14 fpm. The touchdown point was misaligned by 12.1 m from the centreline.

The rollout covered a total landing distance of 2,220 m, representing 59 % of the runway length, and the runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 21.4 m from the centreline.

To improve the 58.8 % score, reduce the threshold speed and height to meet target values and aim to touch down within the touchdown zone while maintaining centreline alignment throughout the rollout.
