The flight began with the Vision Jet taxiing from the parking area to the runway at KTEX Telluride Regional Airport, a process that took 6 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 27, with a takeoff distance of 2,750 feet, which accounted for 41% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 100 knots.

As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions of 49°F temperature and winds of 16 knots at 249 degrees. The crosswind was 9 knots, while the headwind was 13 knots. The enroute climb started overhead KTEX Telluride Regional Airport, where the aircraft ascended from 9,644 feet above sea level to 23,718 feet above sea level, an increase of 14,074 feet in just 10 minutes, covering a distance of 15 nautical miles.

The enroute level cruise began 5 miles east of Norwood, Colorado, and lasted for 18 minutes, covering a distance of 75 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its enroute descent 15 miles southwest of CO03 Aspen Gliderport, descending from 23,229 feet above sea level to 9,533 feet above sea level, a decrease of 13,696 feet in just 6 minutes, covering a distance of 17 nautical miles.

The enroute level cruise resumed overhead Woody Creek, lasting for 4 minutes and covering a distance of 5 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 33 at KASE Aspen-Pitkin County Airport (Sardy Field) was made from the south, heading 334.0 degrees at 2 nautical miles and 2,137 feet above ground level.

The landing on runway 33 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 1,401 feet, which was good. However, the touchdown speed of 76 knots was fast, and the touchdown rate was very heavy at -734 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, but the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 26 feet from the centerline.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 44°F temperature and winds of 8 knots at 299 degrees, with a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 6 knots. The total landing distance was 2,299 feet, which accounted for 33% of the runway. The taxiing to the parking area from the runway took 4 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile.

Landing on runway 33 at KASE Aspen-Pitkin County Airport (Sardy Field) in the Vision Jet

Landing Score 81.73 %

Landing Summary

The Vision Jet aircraft successfully landed on runway 33 at KASE Aspen-Pitkin County Airport (Sardy Field), but with some notable areas for improvement. The final approach was initiated from the south, heading 334.0° at 2 nautical miles and 2,137 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on the runway, which has a length of 7,006 feet.

However, there were some discrepancies in the landing performance. The threshold height at 80 feet agl was well above the target, indicating that the aircraft may have been too high during the approach. Additionally, the threshold speed was too high at 89 knots, which could have contributed to the subsequent issues. The touchdown distance was good at 1,401 feet, but the touchdown speed of 76 knots was faster than ideal.

The most concerning aspect of the landing was the very heavy touchdown rate of -734 feet per minute (fpm). This is significantly higher than the typical touchdown rate, which can put excessive stress on the aircraft's landing gear and potentially lead to damage. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, which is a positive aspect of the landing.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 44°F and winds of 8 knots at 299°. The crosswind was 5 knots, and the headwind was 6 knots, which may have contributed to the aircraft's high touchdown speed.

After touchdown, the aircraft's rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 26 feet from the centreline. This is a minor issue, but it could be improved upon in future landings. The total landing distance was 2,299 feet, which is 33% of the runway length. Overall, while the Vision Jet aircraft successfully landed on runway 33, there are areas for improvement in terms of approach and touchdown performance.
