A DA40-NG aircraft prepared for takeoff from Morristown Municipal Airport, KMMU, where it departed from runway 13. Taxiing from the parking to the runway took 8 minutes and covered a distance of less than one nautical mile. Once clear of the parking area, the aircraft began its departure roll, taking off after 28% of the 343-meter runway was utilized, at a liftoff speed of 71 knots. At the time of departure, the local weather was characterized by a temperature of 27°C, with a wind speed of 2 knots at 350°.

Following takeoff, the aircraft began its initial climb, ascending from a starting altitude of 1,006 feet above sea level (asl) to a cruising level of 6,914 ft asl. This climb, which lasted 9 minutes, covered a distance of 7 nautical miles, with the aircraft increasing its altitude by 5,908 feet. The enroute climb phase of the flight started overhead Florham Park, New Jersey, as the aircraft made its way north.

As the aircraft leveled out at its cruising altitude, the enroute level cruise phase began, with the aircraft staying at the altitude of 6,914 ft asl for a short duration. This segment lasted 2 minutes and covered 4 nautical miles, taking place 2 miles southeast of Victory Gardens, New Jersey.

As the flight progressed, the enroute descent phase began 1 mile north of Whippany, New Jersey, with the aircraft decreasing its altitude from 6,616 ft asl to 1,617 ft asl. This descent, which took 3 minutes to complete, covered a distance of 9 nautical miles, marking a significant drop in elevation.

Following the enroute descent, another level cruise phase occurred, this time lasting 18 minutes and covering 27 nautical miles. This segment took place overhead Singac, New Jersey, as the aircraft leveled out at its cruising altitude once again.

The final approach to runway 34 at Westchester County Airport, KHPN, was initiated from the southeast, with the aircraft heading 307.0° while flying at 4 nautical miles and 1,027 feet above ground level (agl). The touchdown occurred on runway 34, which had a length of 1,996 meters. The threshold height was observed to be good, with a threshold speed also measured at a good 68 knots.

The landing performance of the aircraft was noted to be excellent, with a touchdown speed of 59 knots, which was well within the expected range. The touchdown rate of -193 feet per minute (fpm) was also observed to be good. However, it was noted that the landing was slightly misaligned by 5.7 meters from the centerline.

In terms of touchdown distance, the aircraft performed well, touching down at a distance of 240 meters. The total landing distance was measured at 415 meters, which accounted for just 21% of the runway length. During the rollout, the aircraft demonstrated very good alignment with the runway centerline, exhibiting precise and controlled behavior.

Following touchdown, the aircraft continued to taxi to the parking area, completing the journey in just 2 minutes while covering a distance of less than one nautical mile. Over the course of the flight, the aircraft traveled a total distance of 54 nautical miles, utilizing 40 minutes of flying time and consuming approximately 11 kilograms of fuel.

Landing on runway 34 at KHPN Westchester County Airport in the DA40-NG

Landing Score 92.56 %

Landing Summary

A recent aircraft landing operation involved a DA40-NG, achieving a commendable score of 92.6%. The final approach to runway 34 at KHPN Westchester County Airport, which is located to the southeast, was executed successfully. At a distance of 4 nautical miles (nm) and an altitude of 1,027 feet above ground level (agl), the aircraft approached the runway from the south-east direction, heading 307.0°.

On the landing itself, it's observed that the aircraft had a good threshold height, which sets the stage for a proper touch down. Additionally, the threshold speed at a rate of 68 kt was optimal, sign-posting that the pilot's speed control capabilities were good. The calculated touchdown speed on landing stood at 59 kt, which was a good indicator of the pilot's capacity to regulate airspeed, while touchdown took place at a rate of -193 fpm.

However, it's worth noting that the initial touchdown position was located 5.7 meters off the runway's centerline, indicating minor difficulties in landing in the optimal position. The runway at KHPN Westchester County Airport measures 1,996 meters in length, thus providing ample space for the aircraft to come to a stop. Despite the slight misalignment, the overall landing distance turned out to be 415 meters, which accounts for approximately 21 percent of the runway. This is a more desirable landing distance considering the total length of the runway, suggesting the pilot made the most of the available space.

The weather conditions prevailing at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 28 °C and a relatively mild wind speed of 4 kt from 320°. More notably, this resulted in a negligible crosswind impact, at a mere 1 kt, while the headwind contribution amounted to 3 kt. The combination of these variables likely contributed to a smoother landing experience.

Furthermore, upon touchdown, the runway rollout alignment was extremely good, indicating the pilot's successful capacity to maintain speed and stability in a post-landing environment. Overall, the DA40-NG demonstrated satisfactory performance under the given conditions, with 92.6% being a clear reflection of these positive landing metrics.
