The aircraft in question, a Kodiak 100, successfully landed at AYNH Nahu Airstrip, achieving an impressive score of 88.5%. The final approach to runway 01 was initiated from the south, with the aircraft heading 341.0° at an altitude of 29 feet above ground level (agl) and a distance of 0 nautical miles from the runway.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway, with a touchdown distance of 54 meters, which was considered good. The touchdown speed of 62 knots was also within acceptable limits, and the touchdown rate of -174 feet per minute (fpm) was deemed good as well. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 64 knots.
One notable aspect of the landing was the runway touchdown position, which was slightly misaligned by 7.3 meters from the centerline. Despite this, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 16°C and a wind speed of 3 knots from 186°. The crosswind and tailwind components were both 2 knots, which did not appear to have any significant impact on the landing.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft touching down on the runway and coming to a stop in a controlled manner. The slight misalignment of the touchdown position was the only notable issue, but it did not appear to have any significant impact on the safety of the landing.
