Top opportunity

Work on the flare

Arrival Landing

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 04 at NTAA Faa'a International Airport. The Cessna 208B aircraft took off with a takeoff distance of 302 meters, which was 10% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 74 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot at 270 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind and tailwind.

As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it began its enroute climb from 1,011 feet above sea level to 5,309 feet above sea level, an increase of 4,297 feet in just 3 minutes, covering a distance of 8 nautical miles. The climb was followed by a brief enroute level cruise, lasting 3 minutes and covering 8 nautical miles, which took place 1 mile northeast of Mahina.

The aircraft then began its descent from 5,640 feet above sea level to 5,173 feet above sea level, a decrease of 467 feet in 2 minutes, covering 5 nautical miles. Following this, the aircraft entered another enroute level cruise, lasting 78 minutes and covering 206 nautical miles, which took place 15 miles east of Mahina.

As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its final climb from 3,801 feet above sea level to 4,279 feet above sea level, an increase of 478 feet in 2 minutes, covering 3 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent from 4,211 feet above sea level to 1,183 feet above sea level, a decrease of 3,028 feet in 7 minutes, covering 10 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 23 at NTGF Fakarava Airport was made from the northeast, with the aircraft heading 248.0 degrees at 0 nautical miles and 265 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 23, which had a length of 1,402 meters. The threshold height was above the target, and the threshold speed was well above the target at 74 knots.

The touchdown point was 55 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 73 knots, which was fast. The touchdown rate was very heavy at -714 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 15.3 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot at 270 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind.

The total landing distance was 528 meters, which was 38% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 16.0 meters from the centerline. The taxiing to the parking from the runway took less than 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile.

The total flight distance was 245 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 102 minutes. The aircraft used -7 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 23 at NTGF Fakarava Airport in the Cessna 208B
Landing Score 79.51 %
Landing Summary

The Cessna 208B aircraft successfully landed at NTGF Fakarava Airport, but the landing was not without its issues. The final approach was initiated from the north east, heading 248.0° at 0 nm and 265 ft above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 23, which has a length of 1,402 m.

However, the landing was not perfectly executed. The threshold height at 68 ft agl was above the target, indicating that the aircraft was slightly higher than desired when reaching the runway threshold. Furthermore, the threshold speed was well above the target at 74 kt, suggesting that the pilot may have been applying too much power or not enough braking during the approach.

The touchdown point was 55 m beyond the touchdown zone, which is a significant deviation from the intended landing spot. The touchdown speed of 73 kt was also fast, indicating that the pilot may have been unable to slow the aircraft down sufficiently before touching down. The touchdown rate was very heavy at -714 fpm, which is a high rate of descent and may have contributed to the fast touchdown speed.

Additionally, the runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 15.3 m from the centreline, which could have made the landing more challenging and increased the risk of veering off the runway. The local weather conditions were relatively calm, with a temperature of 16 °C and a light wind of 1 kt at 270°.

The total landing distance was 528 m, which is 38% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, but it may have been influenced by the aircraft's high touchdown speed and heavy touchdown rate. The runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 16.0 m from the centreline, which could have made it more difficult for the pilot to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.

Overall, while the Cessna 208B aircraft successfully landed at NTGF Fakarava Airport, the landing was not perfectly executed and highlighted several areas for improvement. The pilot may need to work on slowing the aircraft down more effectively during the approach, maintaining a more accurate touchdown point, and aligning the aircraft with the runway centreline during the rollout phase.
