Landing on runway 34 at KADS Addison Airport in the Diamond DA42 Twin Star
Landing Score 98.65 %
Landing Summary

The Diamond DA42 Twin Star approached runway 34 at KADS Addison Airport from the south-east on a heading of 338.0° at 4 nm and 1,278 ft agl; the final approach was assessed as unstable at the 1,000 ft gate because the sink rate was too high, and the local weather was 15 °C with wind 12 kt from 270°, including an 11 kt crosswind and a 4 kt headwind.

At threshold the height was good and the threshold speed was well above target at 82 kt.

Touchdown occurred 345 m down the runway at a speed of 64 kt, with a vertical rate of minus 152 fpm; the aircraft was perfectly aligned on touchdown, the total landing distance was 526 m representing 27 % of the 1,961 m runway, and the touchdown point was considered good.

Rollout alignment remained perfect throughout the remaining distance.

To convert the high sink rate into a stable approach, the pilot should refine power and pitch control to achieve the required descent profile before the 1,000 ft gate, and reduce the threshold speed toward the target value to improve energy management on landing.
