Landing on runway 34 at KHPN Westchester County Airport in the PC-12

Landing Score 95.78 %

Landing Summary

The aircraft in question, a PC-12, successfully landed at KHPN Westchester County Airport, achieving a score of 95.8%. The final approach was conducted from the southeast, heading 330.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,248 feet above ground level (agl).

Upon landing on runway 34, which has a length of 1,996 meters, the pilot achieved a good threshold height. However, the threshold speed was slightly too high at 101 knots, indicating that the pilot may have been able to flare the aircraft more effectively to reduce the touchdown speed.

The touchdown distance of 324 meters was considered good, but the touchdown speed of 90 knots was slightly faster than ideal. The touchdown rate of -163 feet per minute (fpm) was good, indicating that the pilot was able to control the aircraft's descent effectively.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 4.5 meters, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's alignment during the final approach. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 18°C, a wind speed of 6 knots from 305°, resulting in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 5 knots.

The total landing distance of 558 meters was 28% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and align it with the centerline of the runway.

Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the pilot achieving a good score despite a few minor deviations from ideal performance.
