The flight began with a departure roll from runway 26L at KLAS Harry Reid International Airport. The aircraft, MH60 Tango, took off with a takeoff distance of 125 meters, which accounted for 4% of the runway. The liftoff speed was a relatively low 6 knots. At the time of departure, the local weather conditions were hot, with a temperature of 38 degrees Celsius, and a moderate wind blowing at 5 knots from a direction of 187 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 1 knot.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead KLAS Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas, Nevada. The aircraft climbed from an altitude of 2,116 feet above sea level to 2,170 feet above sea level, an increase of 54 feet in just 1 minute, while covering a distance of 2 nautical miles.
The flight then proceeded to KLSV Nellis Air Force Base, where it performed a go-around on runway 03R at an altitude of 307 feet above ground level. Following the go-around, the aircraft began its final approach to runway 03R, which was located to the southwest, at a heading of 41.0 degrees and an altitude of 1,464 feet above ground level. The aircraft was 4 nautical miles from the runway threshold at this point.
The landing on runway 03R was notable for several reasons. The threshold height was significantly above the target, and the threshold speed was 62 knots. The touchdown distance was good, at 116 meters, and the touchdown speed was 32 knots. However, the touchdown rate was very heavy, at -1,251 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was excessively misaligned from the centerline by 55.5 meters.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were similar to those at departure, with a temperature of 38 degrees Celsius and a wind blowing at 5 knots from a direction of 187 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a tailwind of 4 knots. The total flight distance was 11 nautical miles, and the flight used 50 kilograms of fuel.

Aircraft MH60 Tango experienced a challenging landing at KLSV Nellis Air Force Base, with a final approach score of 64.8%. The aircraft was approaching runway 03R from the southwest, heading 41.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,464 feet above ground level (agl). Unfortunately, the pilot failed to maintain control during the final approach, resulting in a touchdown before the threshold.
The touchdown speed was significantly lower than expected, at 13 knots, which may have contributed to the heavy touchdown rate of -2,055 feet per minute (fpm). Furthermore, the runway touchdown position was excessively misaligned by 312.1 meters from the centerline, indicating a loss of directional control during the landing. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 38°C and a wind speed of 5 knots at 187°, may have also played a role in the pilot's difficulty in maintaining control.
The second landing attempt also resulted in a heavy touchdown rate of -1,251 fpm, with a touchdown speed of 32 knots. Although the touchdown distance was good at 116 meters, the runway touchdown position was again excessively misaligned by 55.5 meters from the centerline. The threshold height at 85 feet agl was significantly above the target, and the threshold speed was 62 knots. The local weather conditions remained the same, with a temperature of 38°C and a wind speed of 5 knots at 187°.
The combination of factors, including the pilot's loss of control, the challenging weather conditions, and the runway's threshold height and speed, contributed to the difficulties experienced during the landing. The pilot's inability to maintain control and directional stability resulted in two heavy landings, with significant deviations from the centerline.
