The final approach to runway 18C at KCLT Charlotte Douglas International Airport from the north was initiated at 1 nm and -4 ft agl, heading 179.0°. The aircraft maintained a stable descent throughout the approach, with a good threshold height achieved. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 56 kt, indicating a slight delay in the touchdown process.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft exhibited a good touchdown distance of 405 ft, and a touchdown speed of 54 kt was also within acceptable limits. However, the touchdown rate of -278 fpm was only fair, suggesting a slightly higher than ideal rate of descent. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 37 ft from the centreline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach path or a miscalculation of the landing distance.
The aircraft's performance during the rollout phase was satisfactory, with the pilot successfully bringing the aircraft to a stop within a reasonable distance. Overall, the landing was scored 87.2%, reflecting a good but not outstanding performance. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 47 °F and a wind speed of 0 kt at 319°, contributed to a relatively straightforward landing.
