The DC Designs F4J VF-84 aircraft successfully landed at KVNY Van Nuys Airport, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its flight operations. The final approach to runway 34L was initiated from the south, heading 355.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,216 feet above ground level (agl). This approach was executed with precision, taking into account the local weather conditions, which included a temperature of 70°F and a wind speed of 23 knots from 350°.
The aircraft's performance during the landing was impressive, with a threshold speed of 176 knots being achieved, which is considered good. The touchdown point was located 1,347 feet beyond the touchdown zone, but this was still within a reasonable distance, given the runway length of 6,586 feet. The touchdown speed of 157 knots was also good, and the touchdown rate of -152 feet per minute (fpm) was within the acceptable range. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway during the landing.
The local weather conditions, including a 2-knot crosswind and a 23-knot headwind, presented a challenge to the pilot, but the aircraft's performance was not significantly affected. The total landing distance of 4,420 feet was 67% of the runway length, which is a reasonable distance, given the wind conditions. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway during the rollout phase.
Overall, the DC Designs F4J VF-84 aircraft demonstrated a high level of proficiency in its flight operations during the landing at KVNY Van Nuys Airport. The pilot's skills and the aircraft's performance were well-coordinated, resulting in a safe and successful landing. The score of 94.7% reflects the high level of proficiency achieved during this landing.
