Landing on runway XX at overhead Montauk (New York, United States) in the Pilatus PC-24 N971LY

Landing Score 62.58 %

Landing Summary

The Pilatus PC-24 N971LY conducted the final approach to Montauk from 1 nm to 1 nm at 450 ft agl, with local temperature 26 °C, wind 10 kt from 309°, a 9 kt crosswind component and a 5 kt headwind component.

During the threshold and flare the aircraft descended from 54 ft agl to 0 ft agl, a decrease of 54 ft in 8 seconds.

Touchdown occurred at a speed of 114 kt and a vertical rate of minus 170 fpm; the touchdown point was 125 m beyond the touchdown zone.

The rollout continued at 0 ft asl and covered a distance of 862 m.

To improve the score of 62.6 %, focus on achieving the designated touchdown zone by refining the flare timing and aiming point, which will reduce the 125 m overshoot observed. Adjusting the approach path to place the aircraft closer to the zone will also help align the rollout distance with expectations.
