Top opportunity

Improve the touchdown

Arrival Touchdown

There are several things that can go wrong during the flare, carrying too much speed over the threshold, starting the flare at the wrong height and inconsistent flight control inputs, all contribute to a poor flare resulting in a hard touchdown or a float down the runway.

Flight narrative

Taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Calgary / Springbank Airport (CYBW) was a swift process, taking less than a minute to cover the short distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, AA-5B (WHITE), then began its departure roll on runway 35, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 76 kt. The takeoff distance of 1,958 ft was achieved within 39% of the runway's length, a testament to the aircraft's efficient performance in the local conditions. The temperature was a pleasant 66 °F, with a gentle tailwind of 1 kt and a crosswind of 8 kt.

As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb 2 miles north of CYBW, ascending from 4,081 ft to 5,203 ft in a mere 3 minutes. This climb phase covered a distance of 5 nautical miles, with the aircraft maintaining a steady rate of ascent. The climb profile was characterized by a significant increase in altitude, with a total gain of 1,122 ft. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 17, descending from 1,247 ft above ground level (agl) at a heading of 182.0 °, approximately 2 nautical miles from the runway.

The landing on runway 17 was executed smoothly, with a touchdown distance of 338 ft and a touchdown speed of 47 kt. The touchdown rate was firm at -333 fpm, indicating a controlled descent. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned, deviating by 20 ft from the centreline. The total landing distance was 1,641 ft, accounting for 33% of the runway's length. Following a successful landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking 3 minutes to cover the short distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 10 nautical miles, with a total flight time of 9 minutes and no fuel consumption.

Landing Summary

The aircraft, AA-5B (WHITE), successfully completed a landing on runway 17 at CYBW Calgary / Springbank Airport. The approach from the north, heading 182.0° at 2 nm and 1,247 ft above ground level (agl), was characterized by good quality, with the pilot maintaining a stable and controlled descent throughout. The threshold height was satisfactory, and the aircraft touched down at a speed of 47 kt, well within the threshold speed of 53 kt.

The touchdown characteristics were firm, with a rate of -333 fpm, indicating a controlled and stable touchdown. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned, deviating from the centreline by 20 ft. Despite this, the rollout alignment was very good, with the aircraft maintaining a consistent path along the runway. The total landing distance of 1,641 ft was 33% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance.

The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 64°F and a wind of 7 kt at 99°, contributed to a relatively straightforward landing. The crosswind component of 7 kt was effectively managed, and the headwind of 1 kt had a minimal impact on the landing. Overall, the landing was considered satisfactory, with a score of 93.1%.
