Landing on runway 06 at PMDY Henderson Field in the Vision Jet

Landing Score 80.59 %

Landing Summary

The Vision Jet has successfully landed at PMDY Henderson Field, but there are some areas for improvement. The aircraft began its final approach to runway 06 from the west, heading 83.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,079 feet above ground level (agl). The landing was completed on a runway with a length of 7,785 feet.

However, the threshold height at 136 feet agl was excessively over the target, indicating that the aircraft may have been too high during the approach. Additionally, the threshold speed was too high at 87 knots, suggesting that the pilot may have been pushing the aircraft too hard during the final stages of the approach. The touchdown point was 321 feet beyond the touchdown zone, which is a significant deviation from the intended landing spot.

The touchdown speed of 70 knots was a little fast, but the touchdown rate was smooth at -125 feet per minute (fpm). This indicates that the pilot was able to control the aircraft's descent and touchdown, but may have been able to touch down more gently. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, which is a positive aspect of the landing.

The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 81°F and a wind of 5 knots at 100°. The crosswind was minimal at 3 knots, and the headwind was 5 knots, which helped to stabilize the aircraft during the approach. The total landing distance was 2,865 feet, which is 37% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, but it could have been improved with a more precise approach.

The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase of the landing. Overall, while the Vision Jet's landing at PMDY Henderson Field was successful, there are some areas for improvement, particularly in terms of approach speed and touchdown point accuracy.
