Landing on runway 08L at PHNL Daniel K Inouye International Airport in the Cessna 172

Landing Score 59.48 %

Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 08L at PHNL Daniel K Inouye International Airport was conducted from the west on a heading of 96.0 ° at a distance of 1 nm and an altitude of 827 ft agl.

During the threshold and flare phase the aircraft crossed the threshold at a height of 124 ft agl, which was excessively over target, and the speed at that point was 74 kt, noted as too high.

The overall landing received a score of 59.5 %. Reducing the approach speed to meet the target value will help bring the threshold speed within limits, and adjusting the descent profile to achieve the correct threshold height will correct the excessive altitude at crossing.
