Landing on runway 17 at KBFA Boyne Mountain Airport in the Kodiak 100
Landing Score 93.66 %
Landing Summary

The aircraft in question, a Kodiak 100, successfully landed at KBFA Boyne Mountain Airport, achieving a score of 93.7%. The final approach was initiated from the north, heading 169.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 930 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft successfully touched down on runway 17, which has a length of 1,582 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 above the target speed of 75 kt, suggesting that the pilot may have been able to make adjustments to reduce the speed before touchdown. The touchdown distance of 428 meters was considered good, and the touchdown speed of 62 kt was also within acceptable limits.

The touchdown rate was reported as smooth, with a rate of -124 feet per minute (fpm). This indicates that the aircraft touched down without any significant impact or bounce, which can be a safety concern. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.1 meters from the centerline, which may require some adjustments to the pilot's approach technique.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 18°C and a wind speed of 12 kt from 190°. This resulted in a crosswind of 4 kt and a headwind of 11 kt, which may have affected the aircraft's approach and landing. Despite these conditions, the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft and execute a smooth landing.

The total landing distance of 917 meters was 58% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This suggests that the pilot was able to make a precise approach and touchdown, minimizing the amount of runway required to come to a stop. The runway rollout alignment was reported as perfect, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and bring it to a stop without any issues. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score and demonstrating good control and precision.
