Landing on runway 13 at KDSM Des Moines Intl in the CRJ900
Landing Score 88.69 %
Landing Summary

Overall, your aircraft landing score of 88.7% is a solid result, and there are definitely areas where you excelled. Your Touchdown Phase, for example, had a perfect touchdown rate and your threshold height during the Landing Phase was good. Additionally, your approach phase had a slightly above target speed, which is a good sign of control.

However, there are also some areas where improvement is needed. The Approach Phase showed poor descent path above the glideslope limit, which indicates the need for better precision in altitude control. Additionally, the Landing Phase had very poor landing flare and poor bank angle stability, suggesting the need for smoother and more controlled movements during this phase of the landing.

In the Touchdown Phase, while your touchdown rate was perfect, your touchdown point was beyond the touchdown zone and the runway touchdown position was off-center, indicating the need for better alignment and positioning. The Rollout Phase also showed a runway alignment issue, being 3.9 m from the centerline.

Overall, there is definitely room for improvement in certain areas of your landing technique. However, with focus and practice, you can work on refining your skills and achieving an even higher score in future landings. Keep up the good work and continue to strive for excellence in your aircraft operations. Your determination and effort will surely pay off in the long run.
