Landing on runway 29R at KTOA Zamperini Field in the DC Designs F4 Blue Angels

Landing Score 94.57 %

Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 29R at KTOA Zamperini Field from the south east was executed with precision, with the aircraft intercepting the localizer at 1 nm and 313 ft above ground level, heading 309.0°. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 147 kt, which was well below the target speed to avoid stalling. The aircraft touched down at a distance of 73 ft, with a touchdown speed of 146 kt, indicating a good touchdown characteristic.

The touchdown rate was, however, very hard at -506 fpm, which may require further attention to ensure a smoother touchdown. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, with the aircraft centered on the runway. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 68 °F and a 7 kt headwind, contributed to a relatively smooth landing. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 kt, which further facilitated a stable approach.

The total landing distance of 1,508 ft was 39% of the runway length, indicating a satisfactory rollout performance. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, with the aircraft maintaining its centerline alignment throughout the rollout phase. Overall, the landing performance was satisfactory, with a score of 94.6%.
