Landing Score 98.54 %

Landing Summary

The DA40-XLS aircraft successfully landed at 4N1 Greenwood Lake, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its pilot. The final approach was conducted from the north-east, aligning with the runway 24 threshold at a height of 328 feet above ground level (agl) and a distance of 1 nautical mile from the runway. The aircraft's heading was 227.0°, indicating a precise approach path.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was slightly below the target threshold speed of 60 knots, registering at 54 knots. This minor deviation did not impact the overall performance of the landing. The touchdown distance of 118 meters was within acceptable limits, and the touchdown rate of -110 feet per minute (fpm) was smooth, indicating a controlled descent.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 24°C and a gentle headwind of 1 knot from 216°. The crosswind component was negligible, at 0 knots. These conditions contributed to a stable and predictable approach path.

The total landing distance of 393 meters was 37% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. This suggests that the pilot executed a precise and controlled approach, resulting in a smooth touchdown and a short rollout distance. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft throughout the landing process.

Overall, this landing demonstrates a high level of skill and proficiency in the pilot, as well as a thorough understanding of the aircraft's performance characteristics and the local weather conditions. The DA40-XLS aircraft performed well, and the landing was executed with precision and control.
