Top opportunity

Maintain the centreline

Departure Roll

A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

Landing Summary

The aircraft approached runway 23 in a temperature of 16 °C with a light wind of 2 kt from 270°, a cross-wind component of 1 kt and a head-wind component of 2 kt.

At the threshold the height was good and the speed was well above target at 77 kt.

Touchdown occurred 169 m down the runway, a distance described as good, with a touchdown speed of 67 kt that was a little fast, a vertical rate of -72 fpm rated excellent, and runway touchdown alignment very good.

The rollout covered a total landing distance of 641 m, representing 34 % of the 1,866 m runway, and runway rollout alignment was perfect.

Reduce the approach speed to meet the target threshold speed and manage the flare to lower the touchdown speed, which will bring the already high score even closer to optimal performance.
