The Fokker F27-500 NAC 1961 First Livery touched down on runway 09 at EGVA RAF Fairford with a satisfactory approach quality, demonstrating good control and precision throughout the descent. The aircraft descended from 1,834 feet above ground level (agl) at a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway, aligning itself with the runway heading of 97.0 degrees. The threshold height was well-managed, allowing for a smooth transition into the landing phase.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed of 106 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown point was located 150 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone. The touchdown rate of -274 feet per minute was slightly higher than ideal, but still considered fair. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.2 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to minor deviations in the approach or landing technique. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 4 degrees Celsius, did not appear to have any significant impact on the landing.
The total landing distance of 873 meters, accounting for 29% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, demonstrating excellent control and precision during the post-landing phase. Overall, the landing was considered satisfactory, with a score of 92.6%. While there were some minor deviations, the pilot's performance was generally good, and the aircraft was brought to a safe stop within a reasonable distance.
