Landing on runway 04R at LFMN Nice-Côte d'Azur Airport in the PC-12

Landing Score 96.85 %

Landing Summary

Report on Aircraft Landing:

A PC-12 aircraft conducted a final approach to runway 04R at LFMN Nice-Côte d'Azur Airport in a southwestern direction with a heading of 45.0°, approximately 3 nautical miles away from the airport and at an altitude of 996 feet above ground level.

The aircraft landed safely on runway 04R, which has a length of 2,959 meters. The threshold height was well-maintained, but unfortunately, the aircraft touched down at a speed of 100 knots, exceeding the desired threshold speed. Furthermore, the touchdown speed of 86 knots was slightly higher than ideal, resulting in a minor deviation from the optimal landing parameters.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft maintained a smooth descent rate of -102 feet per minute, but landed 221 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone. The landing roll alignment was remarkably smooth, with the aircraft staying perfectly aligned with the runway.

Although the local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 26°C and wind speeds ranging between 3 and 7 knots, the crosswind and tailwind components exerted a moderate influence on the aircraft's handling and landing. The crosswind speed of 6 knots and tailwind speed of 3 knots necessitated careful maneuvering to ensure a stable and controlled approach.

Notably, the aircraft's landing distance covered 1137 meters, representing approximately 38% of the available runway length. While this distance is considerable, it suggests that the pilot made a conscious effort to slow down the aircraft as much as possible while maintaining the smooth descent rate.

In conclusion, while the aircraft landed safely within the designated runway, minor deviations from the ideal touchdown speed and touchdown zone positioning suggest that there is room for improvement in the pilot's landing technique. Effective crosswind and tailwind management will be essential for future landings at LFMN Nice-Côte d'Azur Airport, particularly considering the potential impact of variable wind conditions on aircraft handling.
