What held you back

Arrival Approach — stall warning; 300 ft gate 43 %, −4.76 points
Arrival Landing — Threshold speed at 66 kt was well below target, take care not to stall at 62 %, −0.84 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown rate was -267 fpm at 58 %, −0.70 points

Next time

Departure

Ease the nose up sooner to lift off at 70 kt instead of letting speed build on the ground.

What happened: The aircraft lifted off at 81 kt, 11 kt above the target liftoff speed.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 70 kt at liftoff

See Departure Roll

Arrival

Add power sooner on final to hold 85 kt by the stabilisation gate, not just at the threshold.

What happened: The approach was slow at the stabilisation gate, and the aircraft carried that deficit all the way to the threshold, still 19 kt below VREF; arriving that slow usually leaves little energy to cushion the flare, as it did here with a touchdown rate of 266 fpm.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 85 kt at the threshold

See Arrival ApproachArrival LandingArrival Touchdown

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 Diamond DA42 Twin Star taxied from the parking area to runway 25R at KDAB Daytona Beach International Airport in less than 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm.

During the departure roll on runway 25R, the aircraft used 440 m of runway, representing 14 % of the available length, and lifted off at 81 kt. Ambient conditions were a temperature of 16 °C, wind 13 kt from 270°, with a 5 kt cross-wind component and an 11 kt head-wind component.

Climb commenced overhead KDAB, with the aircraft climbing from 413 ft asl to 354 ft asl, an increase of 58 ft achieved in 2 minutes while covering 4 nm.

The descent phase reduced altitude from 982 ft agl to 35 ft agl in 42 seconds.

Final approach to runway 25R was executed from the north-east on a heading of 243.0°, beginning at 0 nm distance and 312 ft agl.

Landing on runway 25R, whose total length is 3,197 m, was made with a threshold speed slightly below target at 66 kt. Touchdown occurred 86 m down the runway at 58 kt, with a vertical speed of minus 249 fpm and very good alignment. Weather at the time was temperature 16 °C, wind 8 kt from 270°, a 3 kt cross-wind and a 7 kt head-wind.

Runway rollout covered a total landing distance of 239 m, equivalent to 7 % of the runway, and alignment during rollout was perfect.

In total, the flight covered 6 nm, took 3 (units as provided), and consumed 12 kg of fuel.

Landing on runway 25R at KDAB Daytona Beach International Airport in the Diamond DA42 Twin Star
Landing Score 93.83 %
Landing Summary

The Diamond DA42 Twin Star approached runway 25R at KDAB from the north-east on a heading of 243.0° while at 312 ft AGL. At the 1,000 ft gate the approach was assessed as unstable, with a sink rate that was too high and the aircraft off the glideslope.

During the threshold and flare segment the aircraft descended from 982 ft AGL to 35 ft AGL in 42 seconds. The threshold height was good and the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 66 kt.

Touchdown occurred 86 m down the runway, a distance rated as good. The touchdown speed was 58 kt, also good, while the vertical rate was fair at minus 249 fpm. Runway touchdown alignment was very good.

The rollout covered a total landing distance of 239 m, representing 7 % of the 3,197 m runway, and the runway rollout alignment was perfect.

To improve the overall score, focus on achieving a stabilized approach by reducing sink rate and maintaining the glideslope before the 1,000 ft gate, and aim to meet the target threshold speed more closely.
