Arrival Final 2

Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 14 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Cessna Longitude, then departed from runway 02 at VNKT Tribhuvan International Airport in Kathmandu, Nepal. The takeoff distance was 712 meters, which accounted for 24% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 128 knots.

As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 26 degrees Celsius and winds of 15 knots at 339 degrees. The crosswind was 10 knots, and the headwind was 11 knots. After departing from Kathmandu, the aircraft began its enroute climb, which started overhead the airport and took the aircraft up to an altitude of 37,832 feet above sea level. This climb covered a distance of 59 nautical miles and took 8 minutes.

The enroute climb was followed by a level cruise, which started 7 miles southwest of VNPL Phaplu Airport in Phaplu, Nepal. This cruise phase lasted for 11 minutes and covered a distance of 99 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 5 miles north of Naksalbari in West Bengal, India. The descent took the aircraft down from an altitude of 37,999 feet to 8,219 feet above sea level, covering a distance of 77 nautical miles in 17 minutes.

The final approach to runway 15 at VQPR Paro International Airport in Bhutan was made from the north, with the aircraft heading at 164.0 degrees at an altitude of 848 feet above ground level and 1 nautical mile from the runway. The landing was made on runway 15, which had a length of 1,991 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 106 knots.

The touchdown point was 196 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 96 knots, which was good. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -226 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius and winds of 25 knots at 170 degrees. The crosswind was 8 knots, and the headwind was 24 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,519 meters, which accounted for 76% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, and the aircraft then began its taxiing period from the runway to the parking, which took 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile.

Landing on runway 15 at VQPR Paro International Airport in the Cessna Citation Longitude
Landing Score 91.62 %
Landing Summary

The Cessna Longitude successfully landed at VQPR Paro International Airport, achieving a score of 91.6%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north, heading 164.0° at 1 nautical mile and 848 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with good control, and the aircraft touched down on runway 15, which has a length of 1,991 meters.

The threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed was maintained at 106 knots, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown point was 196 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The touchdown speed of 96 knots was also within acceptable limits, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed during the landing.

However, the touchdown rate of -226 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, suggesting that the pilot could have managed the descent more efficiently. Nevertheless, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway during the landing.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 20°C and a wind speed of 25 knots from 170°. The crosswind component was 8 knots, while the headwind component was 24 knots. These conditions presented a moderate challenge for the pilot, but the aircraft's performance was satisfactory.

The total landing distance of 1,519 meters was 76% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This indicates that the pilot was able to bring the aircraft to a stop quickly and efficiently, with the runway rollout alignment being perfect. Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated good control and management of the aircraft during the approach and landing phases.
