What went well

Straight touchdown — 0.04 m off the centreline, no bounce
Flare on profile — 98 %
1.17 G at touchdown — inside band

What held you back

Arrival Landing — Threshold speed was well above target at 89 kt at 0 %, Touched down 5 m short of the threshold, so it was never crossed in the air at 0 %, −4.36 points
Arrival Taxi — peak taxi speed 67 kt at 0 %, g force 0.07 to 0.98 g at 33 %, −3.89 points
Departure Roll — Landing Lights at 0 %, Strobe Lights at 0 %, −1.34 points

Next time

Departure

Hold the nose down until the speed reaches 78 kt, then rotate.

What happened: You started the rotation at 66 kt, 12 kt before the 78 kt rotation speed.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 78 kt at rotation

See Departure Roll

Arrival

Reduce power earlier on final to bleed speed back to 81 kt before crossing the threshold.

What happened: You crossed the threshold at 89 kt, 8 kt above the 81 kt target.

Watch for: Airspeed, targeting 81 kt at the threshold.

See Arrival Landing

Every knot above Vref is stored kinetic energy, and energy stored at the threshold must be dissipated in ground effect before the aeroplane will stop flying. Because kinetic energy scales with the square of speed, the excess you must dissipate grows fast. At a 45-knot approach, five knots hot is over a tenth more speed and roughly a quarter more energy to get rid of in ground effect. This is why the fix is never in the flare. It was decided three miles earlier, on final, at the airspeed indicator.

Everything the flare is measured against - the profile, the crossing height, the aim point - is referenced to a threshold this landing never reached, so read the numbers below as what happened short of the runway, not on it. Landing short is the fault to fix before anything about the hold-off is worth judging.

Flight narrative

Departing from Tocumen International Airport's runway 21L, the aircraft began its takeoff roll, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 85 kt in a distance of 563 meters, which accounted for 18% of the runway. The local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 15 °C and a wind speed of 1 kt from 270°, resulting in a negligible crosswind component. Following a smooth takeoff, the aircraft entered a left-hand pattern, navigating the circuit with ease. The pattern entry from runway 21L was completed in less than 1 nm in 25 seconds, demonstrating the pilot's proficiency in handling the aircraft.

As the aircraft progressed through the pattern, it executed a series of turns and legs, including a downwind turn with an angle to the runway of 95.1°, a base leg turn with an angle of 39.0°, and a final turn. The aircraft's performance during these maneuvers was notable, with distances and times recorded as follows: downwind turn (2 nm), downwind leg (2 nm in 70 seconds), base leg (1 nm in 47 seconds), and final turn (less than 1 nm in 24 seconds). The aircraft then aligned with runway 21R, approaching from the north-east at a heading of 213.0° and an altitude of 70 ft above ground level.

The final approach and landing were executed with precision, with the aircraft touching down before the threshold at a speed of 68 kt and a smooth touchdown rate of -130 fpm. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the total landing distance was 284 meters, accounting for 13% of the runway. Following a brief taxiing period of less than 1 minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nm, the aircraft came to a stop at the parking area. The flight's total distance was 9 nm, and it consumed 8 kg of fuel, with a total flight time of 7 minutes.

Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 21R at MPTO Tocumen International Airport was executed from the north east, aligning with the heading of 213.0°. The aircraft descended from an altitude of 70 feet above ground level (agl) at a distance of 0 nautical miles from the runway threshold. The approach quality was excellent, with a stable and controlled descent throughout.

As the aircraft touched down before the threshold, the touchdown speed of 68 knots was well within the acceptable range, indicating a smooth and controlled touchdown. The touchdown rate of -130 feet per minute (fpm) further emphasized the precision of the landing, with a gentle and controlled deceleration. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, with the aircraft centered on the runway centerline.

Following touchdown, the aircraft maintained perfect centerline alignment during the rollout phase, demonstrating exceptional control and precision. The total landing distance of 284 meters, accounting for only 13% of the runway, was a testament to the pilot's skill and the aircraft's performance. Overall, the landing was a near-perfect execution, with a score of 99.9% reflecting the exceptional quality of the approach, touchdown, and rollout phases.
