Landing on runway 08 at LICC Catania-Fontanarossa Airport in the DA42-TDI

Landing Score 96.01 %

Landing Summary

The DA42-TDI aircraft successfully landed at Catania-Fontanarossa Airport, achieving a score of 96.0%. The final approach was conducted from the west, heading 88.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,240 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft was on a steady course for runway 08, which has a length of 2,253 meters.

Upon touchdown, the threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 68 knots, which may have been due to the aircraft's descent rate or the pilot's decision to flare earlier than expected. The touchdown distance of 276 meters was considered good, and the touchdown speed of 60 knots was also within acceptable limits.

The touchdown rate of -271 feet per minute (fpm) was fair, suggesting that the aircraft may have experienced a slight bounce or oscillation upon touchdown. This could be attributed to the aircraft's weight, the pilot's technique, or the runway's surface conditions. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.2 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to the pilot's alignment or the aircraft's drift during the approach.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 4 knots from 90°. This resulted in a crosswind of 0 knots and a headwind of 4 knots, which may have affected the aircraft's approach and landing. The total landing distance of 497 meters was 22% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft was able to stop within a reasonable distance.

During the rollout, the aircraft's alignment was slightly misaligned by 9.3 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to the pilot's technique or the aircraft's braking performance. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score and demonstrating good control and handling characteristics.
