Arrival

Add power on final to hold 65 kt across the threshold.

What happened: The aircraft crossed the threshold at 56 kt, 9 kt below VREF, and low energy like this usually carries through to a firm touchdown at 212 fpm.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 65 kt at the threshold

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

Flight narrative

Departing from Locarno Airport (LSZL), the Tecnam P2008 JC aircraft began its takeoff roll on runway 08L. The aircraft accelerated to a liftoff speed of 54 kt, achieving lift-off in a distance of 774 meters, which represented 97% of the available runway length. The local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 28 °C and a light wind of 3 kt from 216°, resulting in a negligible crosswind component.

As the aircraft entered the right-hand traffic pattern, it demonstrated a high degree of agility, completing the pattern entry in less than 1 nm in 26 seconds. The subsequent crosswind turn was executed with precision, requiring a distance of less than 1 nm in 22 seconds. The downwind turn, which covered a distance of 3 nm, was conducted at an angle of 23.6° to the runway, while the downwind leg itself spanned 4 nm in 153 seconds. The base leg turn, with an angle of 21.9° to the runway, was completed in a distance of 1 nm. The aircraft then commenced its final approach to runway 08L, aligning itself with the runway at a heading of 77.0° and an altitude of 196 ft above ground level.

The landing was executed smoothly, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a distance of 163 meters and a speed of 46 kt, which was slightly above the recommended threshold speed of 56 kt. The touchdown rate of -224 fpm was considered fair, while the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The total flight distance of 11 nm was covered in 8 minutes, with a fuel consumption of 1 kg. The aircraft's performance was satisfactory, considering the favorable weather conditions and the pilot's skillful handling of the aircraft.

Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 08L at LSZL Locarno Airport was executed from the west, with the aircraft heading 77.0° at 0 nm and 196 ft above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 56 kt, which was within the acceptable range. The aircraft maintained a steady descent, touching down at a distance of 163 m, which was within the expected parameters.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was recorded at 46 kt, which was slightly higher than the desired value. However, the touchdown rate of -224 fpm was fair, indicating a controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, with the aircraft centered on the runway centerline. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 28 °C and a wind speed of 3 kt at 216°, contributed to a relatively calm and stable environment for the landing.

The overall performance of the aircraft was satisfactory, with a score of 96.3%. The landing was characterized by a good threshold height, a controlled descent, and a perfect runway touchdown alignment. While the touchdown speed was a little fast, the aircraft's handling and control were maintained throughout the landing, resulting in a successful touchdown and rollout.
