The Douglas DC-3 approached runway 11 at PAKT Ketchikan International Airport from the north-west on a heading of 136.0° at 4 nm and 904 ft agl, with a local temperature of 22 °C, wind 6 kt from 109°, a 3 kt crosswind component and a 6 kt headwind component, achieving a final-approach score of 94.1 %.
At threshold the height was good, but the threshold speed was too high at 80 kt.
Touchdown occurred 437 m down the runway, a distance rated as good, while the touchdown speed of 77 kt was too fast; the vertical rate was excellent at minus 54 fpm and the touchdown point was slightly misaligned by 3.1 m from the centreline.
The aircraft used a total landing distance of 1,289 m, representing 56 % of the 2,293 m runway, and the rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 11.8 m from the centreline.
Reduce the approach and touchdown speeds to bring the threshold and touchdown speeds within target values, and refine lateral control to lessen the small centreline deviations observed.
