Landing on runway 09 at KTEX Telluride Regional Airport in the TBM 930

Landing Score 69.16 %

Landing Summary

The TBM 930 aircraft successfully landed at KTEX Telluride Regional Airport, but the landing was not without its issues. The final approach was conducted from the west, heading 112.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,219 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 09, which has a length of 6,693 feet.

However, the landing was not perfectly executed. The threshold height at 59 feet agl was slightly above the target, indicating that the aircraft may have been slightly high on its approach. Additionally, the threshold speed was excessively high at 109 knots, which could have contributed to the issues that followed. The touchdown point was 510 feet beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed of 106 knots was also excessively fast. Furthermore, the touchdown rate was very heavy at -915 feet per minute, which is a significant concern.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 14 feet from the centreline, which could have made the landing more challenging. The local weather conditions were relatively calm, with a temperature of 52°F and a wind of 4 knots at 120°. The crosswind was minimal at 1 knot, and the headwind was 4 knots, which was actually beneficial for the landing.

The total landing distance was 3,765 feet, which is 56% of the runway length. This is a relatively long landing distance, indicating that the aircraft may have been slowed down too quickly or that the pilot may have been too aggressive on the approach. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 37 feet from the centreline, which could have made the landing more difficult.

Overall, while the TBM 930 aircraft successfully landed at KTEX Telluride Regional Airport, the landing was not perfectly executed, and there were several issues that need to be addressed. The high threshold speed, excessive touchdown speed, and heavy touchdown rate are all concerns that need to be addressed to improve the safety and efficiency of the landing.
