What went well

Touched down at -167 fpm — a soft arrival
Threshold crossed at 40 ft and 118 kt — both inside band
Straight touchdown — 1.10 m off the centreline, no bounce

What held you back

Arrival Rollout — Landing distance 1,091 m at 0 %, −3.77 points
Arrival Landing — Flare profile at 48 %, −1.13 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown distance was 778 m at 65 %, −0.44 points

Top opportunity

Work on the flare

Arrival Landing

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

Flight narrative

The flight began with the King Air C90 GTX Air Ambulance taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Princess Juliana International Airport, taking approximately 8 minutes to cover a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 10, with a takeoff distance of 646 meters, which accounted for 28% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 101 knots.

As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 31 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 16 knots at 120 degrees. The crosswind was 10 knots, while the headwind was 13 knots. After departing from the airport, the aircraft began its enroute climb, which started overhead the airport and involved ascending from 149 feet above sea level to 1,149 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,000 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles.

The enroute level cruise phase began 4 miles southeast of Marigot, lasting for 3 minutes and covering a distance of 8 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its enroute descent, which began 2 miles north of Grand-Case and involved descending from 1,220 feet above sea level to 220 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,000 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 12 at Grand Case-Espérance Airport was made from the west, with the aircraft heading at 108 degrees and at an altitude of 197 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 12, which had a length of 983 meters. The threshold speed was 118 knots, and the touchdown point was excessively long, using more than 75% of the available runway. The touchdown speed was 106 knots, and the touchdown rate was excellent at -59 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 30 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 7 knots at 128 degrees. The crosswind was 2 knots, while the headwind was 6 knots. The total landing distance was 1,091 meters, which was 111% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The total flight distance was 18 nautical miles, taking 10 minutes, and the aircraft used -2 kilograms of fuel.

Landing report
Landing on runway 12 at TFFG Grand Case-Espérance Airport in the King Air C90 GTX Passengers
Landing Score 83.65 %
Landing Summary

The King Air C90 GTX Air Ambulance successfully landed at TFFG Grand Case-Espérance Airport, achieving a score of 83.7%. The aircraft approached the runway from the west, heading 108.0° at an altitude of 197 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway. The pilot maintained a steady course, adhering to the standard final approach procedure.

Upon reaching the runway threshold, the aircraft touched down at a speed of 106 knots, which was slightly below the recommended threshold speed of 118 knots. However, the touchdown point was excessively long, utilizing more than 75% of the available runway. This indicates that the pilot may have been slightly late in initiating the flare, or the aircraft may have been experiencing a slight tailwind component.

Despite the long touchdown point, the touchdown rate was excellent at -59 feet per minute (fpm), demonstrating the pilot's skill in controlling the aircraft's descent. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot maintained a steady course and aligned the aircraft with the runway centerline.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 30°C and a gentle headwind of 6 knots. The wind direction was from 128°, resulting in a crosswind component of 2 knots. The pilot effectively managed the wind conditions, ensuring a smooth and controlled landing.

The total landing distance was 1,091 meters, which was 111% of the available runway length. This indicates that the pilot may have been able to shorten the landing distance with a more precise flare and touchdown point. However, the runway rollout alignment was very good, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.

Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated good skills and judgment in managing the aircraft's approach and landing. However, there is room for improvement in terms of touchdown point and landing distance.
