Landing on runway 28L at KPIT Pittsburgh International Airport in the RJ85

Landing Score 86.32 %

Landing Summary

The RJ85 aircraft successfully landed at KPIT Pittsburgh International Airport, achieving a score of 86.3%. The final approach to runway 28L was initiated from the east, heading 272.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,615 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach was characterized by a good threshold speed of 117 knots, which is within the acceptable range for a safe landing.

However, the threshold height at 82 feet agl was significantly above the target, indicating a slight deviation from the ideal approach path. Despite this, the touchdown speed of 105 knots was good, and the touchdown rate was smooth at -133 feet per minute (fpm). The smooth touchdown rate suggests that the aircraft's descent was well-controlled, minimizing the risk of a hard landing.

The touchdown point was 276 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a slight deviation from the ideal landing position. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.8 meters from the centerline, indicating a minor deviation from the ideal alignment. These deviations, however, did not appear to have a significant impact on the overall safety of the landing.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 11 knots from a direction of 200°. The crosswind component was 11 knots, while the headwind component was 3 knots. These conditions were likely challenging for the pilot, but the aircraft's performance and the pilot's skills were sufficient to manage the landing safely.

The total landing distance was 1,088 meters, which is 31% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft was able to touch down and come to a stop within a relatively short distance. The runway rollout alignment was very good, suggesting that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively, minimizing the risk of a skid or loss of control.

Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft's performance was satisfactory. While there were some minor deviations from the ideal approach and landing path, the pilot's skills and the aircraft's capabilities were sufficient to manage the landing safely.
