The aircraft, a PA28 Arrow III, then departed from runway 25 at KEGE Eagle County Regional Airport. The takeoff distance was 607 feet, which accounted for 8% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 69 knots.

During the takeoff, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 56°F and a wind speed of 15 knots from 300°. This resulted in a crosswind of 9 knots and a headwind of 12 knots. After taking off, the aircraft began its enroute climb, which started overhead Gypsum, Colorado. The climb involved an increase in altitude from 7,465 feet above sea level to 9,154 feet above sea level, a rise of 1,689 feet in 2 minutes and covering a distance of 3 nautical miles.

As the aircraft continued its journey, it began its enroute descent, which started 2 miles south of KEGE Eagle County Regional Airport. The descent involved a decrease in altitude from 9,152 feet above sea level to 7,562 feet above sea level, a drop of 1,590 feet in 4 minutes and covering a distance of 4 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 25 at KEGE Eagle County Regional Airport was made from the east, with a heading of 263.0° at 3 nautical miles and 1,090 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown speed of 66 knots and a touchdown rate of -80 feet per minute, which was excellent. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 43 feet from the centreline.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 55°F and a wind speed of 15 knots from 299°, resulting in a crosswind of 9 knots and a headwind of 12 knots.

Landing on runway 25 at KEGE Eagle County Regional Airport in the PA28 Arrow III

Landing Score 92.75 %

Landing Summary

The PA28 Arrow III aircraft successfully landed at KEGE Eagle County Regional Airport, achieving a score of 92.8%. The final approach was conducted from the east, heading 263.0° at 3 nautical miles and 1,090 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 25, which has a length of 7,970 feet.

The threshold height was good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed was above the target speed, coming in at 78 knots. This may have been due to the aircraft's approach configuration or the pilot's decision to prioritize a safe landing over a precise speed.

The touchdown distance was good, measuring 1,450 feet, and the touchdown speed was also within acceptable limits at 66 knots. The most notable aspect of the landing was the excellent touchdown rate of -80 feet per minute (fpm), which indicates a smooth and controlled descent.

However, there were some minor issues with the landing. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 43 feet from the centreline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the aircraft's approach path or a miscalculation of the runway alignment. Additionally, the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 43 feet from the centreline, which may have been due to the same factors.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 55°F and winds of 15 knots at 299°. The crosswind component was 9 knots, while the headwind component was 12 knots. These conditions were likely taken into account by the pilot during the approach and landing.

Overall, the PA28 Arrow III aircraft performed well during the landing, achieving a good score despite some minor issues with alignment. The pilot's decision to prioritize a safe landing over a precise speed and alignment was likely a key factor in the successful outcome.
