Arrival

Make small rudder corrections against a fixed point at the far end of the runway to stop the drift as soon as it starts in the flare.

What happened: On the landing you drifted 11 m off the centreline, and that kind of lateral drift usually carries through to a touchdown point 11 m off centreline and into a rollout that is still skewed off the runway centreline.

Watch for: Heading indicator: track straight down the extended runway centreline through touchdown and rollout.

See Arrival LandingArrival TouchdownArrival Rollout

A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

Flight narrative

KGKT Gatlinburg-Pigeon Forge Airport was the departure point for this flight, with the aircraft rolling onto runway 28 for departure. The takeoff distance covered 54% of the 1,584-meter runway, and liftoff occurred at a speed of 95 kt. Local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 30 °C.

As the aircraft climbed out of KGKT, it began its enroute climb phase, reaching an altitude of 4,851 ft asl after a 2-minute climb from 1,944 ft asl. This was followed by a brief level cruise phase, during which the aircraft maintained a steady altitude of 4,851 ft asl for 2 minutes while covering 5 nm. The aircraft then initiated another climb phase, reaching an altitude of 8,494 ft asl after a 3-minute climb from 5,007 ft asl. The descent phase began overhead Dandridge, with the aircraft descending from 8,519 ft asl to 2,909 ft asl in 7 minutes while covering 21 nm. The final approach phase was initiated from the north east, with the aircraft aligning with runway 23L at KTYS McGhee Tyson Airport.

The aircraft touched down on runway 23L at a speed of 90 kt, with a touchdown point located 97 m beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown rate was smooth at -146 fpm, but the touchdown speed was slightly above target. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.6 m from the centreline, and the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 9.4 m from the centreline. The total landing distance covered 46% of the 2,627-meter runway. Following a short taxiing period, the aircraft arrived at the parking area, having completed a total flight distance of 55 nm and consuming 55 kg of fuel in the process.

Landing on runway 23L at KTYS McGhee Tyson Airport in the Piper PA-46
Landing Score 90.76 %
Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 23L at KTYS McGhee Tyson Airport was conducted from the north east, heading 225.0° at 4 nm and 1,602 ft above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height achieved. However, the threshold speed was well above the target, reaching 102 kt, which may have been a result of the 7 kt headwind and 5 kt crosswind.

The aircraft touched down 97 m beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 90 kt, which was fast. The touchdown rate was smooth, at -146 fpm. Although the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.6 m from the centreline, the aircraft maintained a stable path. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 28 °C and wind at 9 kt from 260°, contributed to the landing performance.

The total landing distance was 1,207 m, which accounted for 46% of the runway length. During the rollout phase, the aircraft was slightly misaligned by 9.4 m from the centreline. Despite these minor deviations, the overall landing performance was satisfactory, with a score of 95.7%.
