What went well

Touched down at -55 fpm — a soft arrival
Threshold crossed at 13 ft and 83 kt — both inside band
Straight touchdown — 2.08 m off the centreline, no bounce

What held you back

Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown distance was 789 m at 64 %, −0.91 points
Arrival Landing — bank angle up to 5.6 ° at 91 %, −0.16 points

Arrival Touchdown

Next time

Reduce power on approach to bring speed back to 73 kt; correcting it early stops it carrying to the threshold and beyond.

What happened: The approach ran fast on speed, and that excess was still present at the threshold, crossing at 84 kt against a target of 73 kt; carrying that much extra speed usually carries the touchdown long.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator against 73 kt on approach, and threshold speed against 73 kt at the threshold.

Ground effect becomes significant below about one wingspan of height. A Cessna 172, with a 36 ft span, enters ground effect at flare height - the float it feels in the hold-off is ground effect arriving on cue. An A320, with a span around 117 ft, has been in ground effect since before the threshold and there is no sudden cushion to feel, only a gradual reduction in induced drag that lengthens any float you allow.

Landing Summary

The Beechcraft Sierra C24R conducted its final approach to runway 05 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde from the south, maintaining a heading of 25.0° at 0 nm and 406 ft agl. Local weather was 20 °C with a wind of 3 kt from 227°, a cross-wind component of 0 kt and a tail-wind component of 3 kt.

At threshold the aircraft displayed a good threshold height, but the threshold speed was well above target at 84 kt.

Touchdown occurred 159 m beyond the touchdown zone; the touchdown speed of 59 kt was good, the touchdown rate was excellent at -55 fpm and runway touchdown alignment was very good.

With a final score of 96.0 % the landing was strong overall; reducing the threshold speed to the intended target and aiming for a touchdown point within the designated zone will tighten performance and keep the aircraft well within the optimal landing envelope.
