Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 7,763 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 2,047 ft past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
This flight was conducted in a DA62 aircraft, taking off from runway 04 at PHNG Kaneohe Bay MCAS (Marion E. Carl Field) Airport. The taxiing process from the parking area to the runway was extremely brief, lasting less than a minute and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
Upon departure, the aircraft accelerated down the runway, reaching liftoff speed of 93 kt at a distance of 1,106 ft, which accounted for 14% of the runway length. The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 84 °F, with a wind speed of 16 kt blowing at 63°. This resulted in a 3 kt crosswind and a 16 kt headwind.
Following a brief enroute level cruise that lasted 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile, the aircraft began its final approach to runway 04. The approach was initiated from the southwest, with the aircraft heading at 53.0° and flying at an altitude of 79 ft above ground level (agl) at 0 nm from the runway.
The landing was executed smoothly, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 71 kt and a rate of -19 fpm, which was considered perfect. However, the touchdown point was slightly misaligned with the runway centerline by 14 ft. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were similar to those at takeoff, with a temperature of 83 °F and a wind speed of 17 kt blowing at 71°, resulting in a 6 kt crosswind and a 16 kt headwind.
The total landing distance was 2,545 ft, which accounted for 33% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The total flight distance was 2 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 5 minutes, with no fuel being consumed during the flight.
The DA62 aircraft successfully landed at PHNG Kaneohe Bay MCAS (Marion E. Carl Field) Airport, achieving a high score of 95.1%. The final approach was conducted from the southwest, heading 53.0° at 0 nm and 79 ft above ground level (agl). The aircraft landed on runway 04, which has a length of 7,763 ft.
The pilot demonstrated good control during the landing, with a threshold height that was satisfactory and a threshold speed of 84 kt, which was within the acceptable range. The touchdown point was 602 ft beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed of 71 kt was also good. The touchdown rate of -19 fpm was perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
However, there was a slight deviation in the runway touchdown position, with the aircraft being 14 ft off-centerline. This minor misalignment did not seem to affect the overall performance of the landing. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 83°F and wind speeds of 17 kt at 71°. The crosswind was 6 kt, and the headwind was 16 kt, which may have contributed to the slight deviation in the touchdown position.
The total landing distance was 2,545 ft, which is 33% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the pilot was able to control the aircraft effectively during the final approach and landing. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, suggesting that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated good control and technique throughout the final approach and landing. The minor deviation in the touchdown position was the only area for improvement, but it did not seem to affect the overall performance of the landing.
