See Arrival Touchdown

Ground effect becomes significant below about one wingspan of height. A Cessna 172, with a 36 ft span, enters ground effect at flare height - the float it feels in the hold-off is ground effect arriving on cue. An A320, with a span around 117 ft, has been in ground effect since before the threshold and there is no sudden cushion to feel, only a gradual reduction in induced drag that lengthens any float you allow.

Landing report
Landing on runway 15 at YBCS Cairns International Airport in the Avro RJ100
Landing Score 98.04 %
Landing Summary

The RJ100 aircraft successfully landed at YBCS Cairns International Airport, achieving a high score of 98.0%. The final approach was conducted from the north-west, heading 156.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,252 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 15, which has a length of 3,169 meters.

The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 110 knots, which may have been due to the aircraft's descent rate or the pilot's decision to flare earlier than expected. Despite this, the touchdown distance of 344 meters was considered good, and the touchdown speed of 101 knots was also within acceptable limits.

The touchdown rate of -185 feet per minute (fpm) was also reported as good, indicating that the aircraft touched down smoothly and without excessive deceleration. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.3 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to the crosswind or the pilot's alignment during the approach.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 21°C and a wind speed of 14 knots from a direction of 160°. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 14 knots, which may have affected the aircraft's approach and landing. Despite these conditions, the pilot was able to maintain good control of the aircraft and execute a smooth landing.

The total landing distance of 717 meters was 23% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was reported as very good, indicating that the aircraft was aligned with the runway centerline during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was considered successful, and the pilot's skills and decision-making were praised.
