What went well

Touched down at -178 fpm — a soft arrival
Straight touchdown — 2.08 m off the centreline, no bounce
Flare on profile — 100 %

What held you back

Arrival Taxi — Landing Lights at 1 %, −0.33 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown distance was 531 m at 92 %, −0.15 points
Arrival Landing — Threshold height at 58 ft agl was slightly above target at 94 %, −0.09 points

Next time

Arrival

Fly a steeper descent on final so you cross the threshold at 50 ft agl instead of 58 ft agl.

What happened: The aircraft crossed the threshold at 58 ft agl against a 50 ft agl target, well above the normal profile. The touchdown point was also long at 531 m against a 457 m target, a pattern often seen after high threshold crossings.

Watch for: Radio altimeter against the 50 ft threshold crossing target on short final.

Twenty knots on a monitor produces the visual sensation of about ten. The advice to "taxi at a walking pace" cannot fix this, because your sense of walking pace is exactly the thing that's broken. Put the groundspeed readout in your scan and obey it for the next fifty flights, the way a student pilot leans on the airspeed indicator before learning to read attitude.

Flight narrative

The Douglas DC-6B taxied from the parking area to runway 04 at MMPR Puerto Vallarta International Airport in 16 minutes, covering a ground distance of 3 nm.

During the departure roll on runway 04, the aircraft accelerated through a takeoff distance of 1,412 m, representing 45 % of the runway, and lifted off at 114 kt. Ambient conditions were a temperature of 31 °C with a wind from 020° at 5 kt, including a 2 kt cross-wind component and a 5 kt head-wind component.

Climb commenced 1 mile south-west of Ixtapa, where the aircraft rose from 1,046 ft asl to 12,013 ft asl, an increase of 10,967 ft achieved in 11 minutes while covering 28 nm.

The first cruise segment began 7 miles south-east of MMMC San Sebastián Airport Mascota and lasted 14 minutes, during which 53 nm were flown.

Descent phase one started 1 mile north-east of Trapiche de Abra, with altitude decreasing from 12,002 ft asl to 11,036 ft asl, a loss of 966 ft over 2 minutes and a ground track of 6 nm.

A short cruise followed, originating 5 miles south of Tala, lasting 2 minutes and spanning 6 nm.

The second descent began 5 miles north-west of Santa Cruz de las Flores, descending from 10,996 ft asl to 6,784 ft asl, a reduction of 4,212 ft in 5 minutes while covering 17 nm.

Subsequent cruise activity started 2 miles south-east of MMGL Guadalajara International Airport, continued for 4 minutes, and encompassed 11 nm.

For the final approach, the aircraft aligned with runway 29 at MMGL Guadalajara International Airport from the south-east, tracking a heading of 296.0° at 4 nm and 1,248 ft agl.

Landing on runway 29 was executed on a runway 4,004 m long; the threshold height of 57 ft agl and threshold speed of 103 kt were slightly above target. Touchdown occurred 101 m beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 95 kt, with a vertical speed of minus 177 fpm and a lateral deviation of 3.8 m from the centreline. Local temperature was 22 °C, and the total landing distance measured 1,572 m, representing 39 % of the runway.

Runway rollout alignment was reported as very good.

Landing Summary

The Douglas DC-6B entered the final approach to runway 29 at MMGL Guadalajara International Airport from the south-east on a heading of 296.0° while 4 nm out and at 1,248 ft agl.

At the threshold the aircraft was at 57 ft agl, which was slightly above target, and the threshold speed was slightly above target at 103 kt.

Touchdown occurred 101 m beyond the designated touchdown zone with a speed of 95 kt judged good and a vertical rate of -177 fpm also good; the touchdown point was slightly misaligned by 3.8 m from the centreline.

The rollout covered a total landing distance of 1,572 m, representing 39 % of the 4,004 m runway, and runway rollout alignment was very good.

Reduce the approach height and fine-tune the speed to eliminate the slight excess observed at the threshold. Tighten centreline tracking to remove the 3.8 m offset observed at touchdown.
