Landing Summary

The aircraft in question, a M500, successfully landed at KVIS Visalia Municipal Airport, achieving a score of 95.2%. The final approach was initiated from the north-west, heading 135.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,265 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft successfully touched down on runway 12, which has a length of 5,644 feet.

The threshold height was reported as good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 90 knots. The touchdown point was located 172 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone, but the touchdown speed of 79 knots was within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate was described as smooth, with a rate of -122 feet per minute (fpm).

However, there were some minor issues with the landing. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 38 feet from the centreline, indicating that the aircraft did not perfectly align with the runway during touchdown. Additionally, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 39 feet from the centreline, suggesting that the aircraft may have drifted off course during the rollout phase.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 66°F and a wind speed of 2 knots from 210°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, while the headwind component was 1 knot. The total landing distance was 2,903 feet, which is 51% of the runway length. Overall, the landing was considered successful, but there is room for improvement in terms of alignment and rollout.
