The Cessna C172 aircraft successfully landed at Hutchinson Municipal Butler Field (KHCD) on runway 33, but with some notable deviations from ideal performance. The final approach was initiated from the southeast, heading 307.0° at 1 nautical mile and 249 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on the runway, which has a length of 1,220 meters.
The threshold height was satisfactory, but the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 65 knots. This could be attributed to the pilot's decision to prioritize a safe touchdown over achieving the optimal speed. The touchdown distance of 394 meters was within acceptable limits, indicating that the pilot had sufficient control over the aircraft's descent. However, the touchdown speed of 55 knots was a little fast, which may have contributed to a firm touchdown rate of -331 feet per minute (fpm).
One of the notable issues with this landing was the significant misalignment of the runway touchdown position, which was 19.3 meters off the centerline. This could be due to a combination of factors, including wind conditions, pilot error, or a lack of precision in the approach. The local weather conditions were calm, with a temperature of 4°C and no wind, which should have made the landing relatively straightforward.
The total landing distance of 509 meters was 42% of the runway length, which is within acceptable limits. However, the runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 18.9 meters from the centerline, indicating that the pilot may have struggled to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase. Overall, while the landing was successful, there were some notable deviations from ideal performance that could be addressed through further training and practice.
