Departure Roll

A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

The final approach to runway 01 at KDCA Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport was made from the south, with the aircraft heading 356.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,257 feet above ground level. However, the pilot decided to execute a go-around at an altitude of 86 feet above ground level.

The aircraft then landed on runway 01, with the touchdown point being 360 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 135 knots, which was considered too fast. The touchdown rate was smooth at -127 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 2 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 8 knots at 30 degrees. The crosswind was 5 knots, and the headwind was 7 knots. The total landing distance was 1,172 meters, which accounted for 54% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good.

After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area from the runway, taking less than 1 minute and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 71 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 21 minutes. The aircraft used 495 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing Summary

The Cessna Longitude aircraft successfully landed at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (KDCA) on runway 01, achieving a score of 92.9%. The final approach was initiated from the south, heading 356.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,257 feet above ground level (agl).

The aircraft touched down on the runway, with a touchdown point located 360 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone. This indicates that the pilot may have been slightly too far back on the runway, but the touchdown speed of 135 knots was still too fast. The touchdown rate, however, was smooth at -127 feet per minute (fpm), suggesting that the pilot maintained control throughout the landing.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 2°C and a wind speed of 8 knots from a direction of 30°. This resulted in a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 7 knots, which the pilot effectively managed during the landing. The runway length at KDCA is 2,190 meters, providing a sufficient margin for the aircraft to come to a stop.

The total landing distance was 1,172 meters, which accounts for 54% of the available runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the pilot executed the landing smoothly and efficiently. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, suggesting that the pilot maintained control and direction throughout the landing roll.

Overall, the landing was successful, but there is room for improvement in terms of touchdown speed and distance from the touchdown zone. The pilot's ability to manage the wind and maintain control throughout the landing, however, was commendable.
