The aircraft touched down on runway 26 at EGBP Cotswold Airport, a 1,618-meter-long runway, after a final approach from the east. The approach quality was good, with a threshold height that was well within acceptable limits. However, the threshold speed was above the target, coming in at 56 knots, which may have been due to the aircraft's high approach speed. The touchdown point was 150 meters beyond the touchdown zone, indicating a slightly long touchdown.
The touchdown speed of 33 knots was within acceptable limits, and the touchdown rate of -11 feet per minute was perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled touchdown. However, the runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 15.7 meters from the centreline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach path. The local weather conditions were calm, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a light headwind of 1 knot from 269 degrees.
The overall score for the landing was 94.4%, indicating a good but not perfect performance. The approach and touchdown phases were well-executed, but the misaligned touchdown and slightly long touchdown point detracted from the score. Despite this, the pilot demonstrated good control and precision, and the landing was safe and controlled.
