Landing on runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport in the Beechcraft A36 Bonanza

Landing Score 91.11 %

Landing Summary

The Beechcraft A36 Bonanza successfully landed at EGPE Inverness Airport, achieving a score of 91.1%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north east, heading 242.0° at 1 nautical mile and 390 feet above ground level (agl). This indicates a precise and controlled approach, with the pilot maintaining a steady heading and altitude.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 23, which has a length of 1,814 meters. The threshold height was reported as good, suggesting that the pilot maintained a safe distance from the runway threshold. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 81 knots, which may indicate a slight deviation from the ideal approach speed.

The touchdown distance of 347 meters was considered good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the landing phase. The touchdown speed of 60 knots was also reported as good, suggesting that the pilot successfully slowed the aircraft to a safe speed before touching down. The touchdown rate of -82 feet per minute (fpm) was excellent, indicating a smooth and controlled landing.

The runway touchdown alignment was very good, suggesting that the pilot maintained a precise alignment with the runway during the landing phase. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 9°C and a wind speed of 0 knots from 331°. This indicates that there were no significant wind or weather factors that could have affected the landing.

Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the pilot demonstrating good control and precision during the approach and landing phases. The score of 91.1% reflects the high level of proficiency and skill demonstrated by the pilot during this landing.
