What went well

Airborne in 736 m — 34 % of the runway
Held the centreline on the roll — 2.55 m off at liftoff

What held you back

Arrival Landing — Threshold height at 99 ft agl was significantly above target. at 3 %, Runway alignment max 21.98 m left at 60 %, −3.78 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown rate was -324 fpm. at 43 %, Runway alignment max 9.48 m left at 77 %, −1.87 points
Departure Roll — Liftoff speed was 82 kt at 86 %, −0.23 points

Top opportunity

Reduce your height at the threshold

Arrival Landing

Next time

Fly a steeper descent on final so you cross the threshold at 50 ft agl instead of 99 ft agl.

What happened: The aircraft crossed the threshold at 99 ft agl against a 50 ft agl target, well above the normal profile. The touchdown point was also long at 563 m against a 457 m target, a pattern often seen after high threshold crossings.

Watch for: Radio altimeter against the 50 ft threshold crossing target on short final.

Departure

Rotate the moment the speed tape reaches 70 kt, not after it.

What happened: Rotation was held until 82 kt, 12 kt past the 70 kt rotation target. Carrying that much extra speed into rotation usually adds unwanted energy right at liftoff.

Even a modest height error carries straight through to the touchdown. Geometry alone says that crossing the threshold 10 feet high on a 3° path moves your touchdown roughly 190 feet further down the runway before the flare adds anything.

Flight narrative

The DA42-TDI taxied from the parking area to runway 12 at EGFF Cardiff International Airport in less than 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm.

During the departure roll on runway 12, the aircraft accelerated over a takeoff distance of 736 m, representing 34 % of the runway, and lifted off at 82 kt; ambient temperature was 16 °C with a wind of 10 kt from 239°, a cross-wind component of 8 kt and a tail-wind component of 5 kt.

Climb commenced 1 mile south-west of Barry, Wales, where the aircraft rose from 1,334 ft asl to 5,848 ft asl, an increase of 4,514 ft achieved in 4 minutes while covering 7 nm.

The first level cruise began 1 mile east of Barry and lasted 5 minutes, during which 11 nm were flown at a constant altitude.

Descent started 2 miles south-east of Rhoose, Wales; altitude decreased from 6,014 ft asl to 3,070 ft asl, a loss of 2,944 ft in 5 minutes while covering 11 nm.

A second cruise segment originated 1 mile south-east of Rhoose, lasting 5 minutes and encompassing 10 nm.

The next descent began 1 mile north-west of Rhoose, with altitude falling from 2,748 ft asl to 2,235 ft asl, a reduction of 514 ft in 2 minutes over 3 nm.

A third cruise phase started 1 mile north-east of Llantwit Major, Wales, lasting 4 minutes and covering 10 nm.

Final approach to runway 12 at EGFF was conducted from the west on a heading of 116.0°, intercepting the approach at 4 nm and 1,610 ft agl.

A go-around was executed on runway 12 at EGFF when the aircraft reached 485 ft agl, after which the approach was abandoned.

Landing on runway 12, which is 2,134 m long, occurred with a threshold height of 99 ft agl and a threshold speed of 89 kt; touchdown was 108 m beyond the touchdown zone at 60 kt, with a smooth vertical rate of minus 102 fpm and a lateral deviation of 9.5 m from the centreline. Local weather at landing was 15 °C, wind 16 kt from 241°, cross-wind 13 kt and tail-wind 9 kt.

Overall, the flight covered 90 nm, lasted 45 minutes, and consumed 21 kg of fuel.

Landing Summary

The DA42-TDI approached runway 12 at EGFF Cardiff International Airport from the west on a heading of 116.0° at 4 nm and 1,610 ft agl, with a final-approach score of 80.7 %. The approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits, and the ambient temperature was 15 °C with wind 16 kt from 241°, including a 13 kt crosswind component and a 9 kt tailwind.

At threshold the height of 99 ft agl was significantly above the target, and the threshold speed of 89 kt was well above the target. The aircraft crossed the runway threshold and began the flare, touching down 108 m beyond the designated touchdown zone. Touchdown speed was 60 kt, described as good, and the vertical rate was smooth at minus 102 fpm. The touchdown point was laterally misaligned by 9.5 m from the centreline.

The touchdown phase recorded a smooth vertical rate of minus 102 fpm and a speed of 60 kt, with the aircraft contacting the runway 108 m beyond the touchdown zone and 9.5 m off the centreline, while the threshold height and speed remained above their targets.

Focus on reducing the threshold height to meet the intended glidepath and bringing the approach speed closer to the target to avoid excess speed at touchdown. Align the touchdown point more closely with the centreline to minimise lateral deviation.

Landing
Landing on runway 12 at EGFF Cardiff International Airport, runway length 2,134 m. Threshold height at 99 ft agl was significantly above target. Threshold speed was slightly above target at 89 kt.

Flare
89.96 %
The flare mostly held the target profile. The flare was pumped rather than held: pitch changed direction 8 times on the way down. Touchdown was 563 m past the threshold. One smooth continuous input - chasing the runway with the elevator makes the next correction bigger, not smaller.
