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. The final approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1 000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits, and the overall score was 76.2 %.
During the threshold and flare phase the threshold height measured 99 ft agl, which was significantly above target, and the threshold speed was well above target at 89 kt.
Touchdown occurred 108 m beyond the touchdown zone with a speed of 60 kt, which was judged good, and a smooth vertical rate of -102 fpm. The touchdown point was misaligned by 9.5 m from the centreline on a runway 2 134 m long. Local weather was 15 °C with wind 16 kt from 241°, including a 13 kt crosswind component and a 9 kt tailwind component.
Reduce the threshold height and speed to meet the prescribed targets, which will improve the touchdown point and overall energy management. Refine lateral control to keep the aircraft within a few metres of the centreline, ensuring a more accurate touchdown alignment.
