What went well

Touched down at -343 fpm — a soft arrival
Straight touchdown — 2.65 m off the centreline, no bounce
1.49 G at touchdown — inside band

What held you back

Departure Taxi — peak taxi speed 31 kt at 61 %, peak speed in a turn 18 kt at 90 %, −1.32 points
Departure Climb 3 — Heading variation -5.0 ° at 48 %, bank angle up to 16.8 ° at 61 %, −1.29 points
Arrival Landing — Landing and flare profile at 0 %, −1.21 points

Top opportunity

Work on the flare

Arrival Landing

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, starting overhead the Trulson Field Plaza (Y99) in North Dakota. This cruise phase lasted for 210 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 877 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 19 miles northeast of Nixon, Nevada. The descent took 11 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 19,876 feet to 7,911 feet, a decrease of 11,965 feet. The distance covered during this period was 38 nautical miles.

The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 3 miles northeast of the Youngberg Ranch Airport (NV17) in Lemmon Valley, Nevada. This cruise phase lasted for only 2 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting 2 miles west of Spanish Springs, Nevada. The descent took 3 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 7,386 feet to 5,845 feet, a decrease of 1,542 feet. The distance covered during this period was 5 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 17R at Reno Tahoe International Airport (KRNO) was made from the north, with a heading of 181.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,415 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 17R, which had a length of 2,747 meters. The threshold height was above the target, and the threshold speed was well above the target at 96 knots.

The touchdown point was 137 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 78 knots, which was good. The touchdown rate was firm at -343 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.1 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 10°C temperature and a wind speed of 17 knots at 130 degrees. The crosswind was 13 knots, and the headwind was 11 knots.

The total landing distance was 742 meters, which accounted for 27% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking, which took 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

Landing on runway 17R at KRNO Reno Tahoe International Airport in the Pilatus PC-12
Landing Score 91.47 %
Landing Summary

The PC-12 aircraft successfully landed at KRNO Reno Tahoe International Airport, achieving a score of 91.5%. The final approach was conducted from the north, heading 181.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,415 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 17R, which has a length of 2,747 meters.

Upon landing, the threshold height was found to be above the target, indicating that the aircraft descended slightly more than intended. However, the threshold speed was well above the target at 96 knots, suggesting that the pilot may have been able to flare the aircraft more aggressively to reduce the touchdown speed. The touchdown point was 137 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation.

The touchdown speed of 78 knots was considered good, and the touchdown rate of -343 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, indicating a controlled descent. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.1 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight drift or a minor deviation in the approach path.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 10°C, with a wind speed of 17 knots at 130°. The crosswind component was 13 knots, while the headwind component was 11 knots. These conditions may have affected the aircraft's approach and landing performance.

The total landing distance was 742 meters, which is 27% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the pilot was able to control the aircraft's descent and touchdown speed effectively. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, suggesting that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.

Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the pilot achieving a good touchdown speed and a firm touchdown rate. However, there were some minor deviations in the approach and landing, including the threshold height and touchdown point.
