Top opportunity

Work on the flare

Not the biggest loss in points — the one thing on this flight a check pilot would raise first, and the guide passage for it.

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 31 at Toledo State Airport, where the aircraft, a PC-12, accelerated down the 472-meter runway, using 92% of its length to achieve liftoff. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 89 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 4 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 218 degrees.

As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead Toledo, Oregon. The climb took the aircraft from an altitude of 396 feet above sea level to 16,991 feet, an increase of 16,595 feet in just 7 minutes, covering a distance of 21 nautical miles. This phase of the flight was marked by a steady and efficient climb, allowing the aircraft to reach its cruising altitude quickly.

The enroute level cruise phase of the flight began 4 miles southwest of Philomath, Oregon, and lasted for 161 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 595 nautical miles. This phase of the flight was characterized by a steady and consistent speed, allowing the aircraft to make good progress towards its destination.

As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent, which started 8 miles southwest of Fort Bridger, Wyoming. The descent took the aircraft from an altitude of 17,815 feet above sea level to 7,503 feet, a decrease of 10,312 feet in just 7 minutes, covering a distance of 59 nautical miles. This phase of the flight was marked by a smooth and controlled descent, allowing the aircraft to reach its destination safely.

The final approach to runway 29 at Dutch John Airport was made from the east, heading 264.0 degrees, at an altitude of 2 nautical miles and 953 feet above ground level. The local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 4 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 17 knots from a direction of 210 degrees.

The landing was made on runway 29, which was 1,824 meters long, and the threshold height at 103 feet above ground level was excessively over target. However, the threshold speed was good at 85 knots, and the touchdown point was very long, using more than 50% of the available runway. The touchdown speed was good at 77 knots, and the touchdown rate was good at -196 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating a well-executed landing.

The total landing distance was 1,191 meters, which was 65% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating a smooth and controlled rollout. The taxiing to the parking from the runway took less than 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile.

In summary, the flight was a successful and efficient one, with the aircraft making good progress towards its destination. The enroute climb and cruise phases were marked by a steady and consistent speed, while the enroute descent and final approach were smooth and controlled. The landing was well-executed, with a good touchdown speed and rate, and a perfect runway touchdown alignment. The total flight distance was 678 nautical miles, and the aircraft used 551 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 29 at 33U Dutch John in the PC-12
Landing Score 76.3 %
Landing Summary

The aircraft in question, a PC-12, successfully landed at 33U Dutch John, but with some notable areas for improvement. The final approach was initiated from the east, heading 264.0° at 2 nautical miles and 953 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot's approach speed and alignment were good, with a threshold speed of 85 knots and a runway touchdown alignment that was perfect.

However, the pilot struggled with the threshold height, which was excessively over target. This suggests that the pilot may have been too high on final approach, which could have resulted in a longer than necessary landing roll. The touchdown point was indeed very long, using more than 50% of the available runway. This is a concern, as it increases the risk of running out of runway in the event of an emergency or other unexpected situation.

Despite the long touchdown point, the touchdown speed of 77 knots was good, and the touchdown rate of -196 feet per minute (fpm) was also satisfactory. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 4°C and a wind of 17 knots at 210°, were not particularly challenging. The crosswind component was 16 knots, while the tailwind component was only 1 knot.

The total landing distance of 1,191 meters, or 65% of the runway, was a concern. This suggests that the pilot may have been able to improve their landing technique to reduce the landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was very good, however, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.

Overall, while the pilot demonstrated some good skills during the landing, there are areas for improvement, particularly with regards to the threshold height and touchdown point. With practice and attention to these areas, the pilot should be able to improve their landing technique and reduce the risk of a long landing roll.
