Landing on runway 01 at AYNH Nahu Airstrip in the Kodiak 100

Landing Score 87.54 %

Landing Summary

The aircraft in question, a Kodiak 100, successfully landed at AYNH Nahu Airstrip, achieving an overall score of 80.3%. The final approach to runway 01 was initiated from the south east, with the aircraft heading 337.0° at a distance of 1 nautical mile and an altitude of 153 feet above ground level.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway, with a touchdown speed of 60 kt, which was considered good. The touchdown distance of 52 meters was also satisfactory, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown rate of -173 feet per minute was within acceptable limits, further emphasizing the pilot's skill in executing a safe landing.

However, there were a few minor issues during the landing. The threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 61 kt, which may indicate a slight delay in the pilot's response to the landing configuration. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.3 meters from the centerline, which may require some adjustments in the pilot's approach and landing technique.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 21°C and a gentle wind of 2 kt at 269°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 kt, while the headwind component was 1 kt, which did not pose any significant challenges to the pilot.

The total landing distance of 277 meters was 65% of the runway length, which is a reasonable distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and was able to bring the aircraft to a stop safely and efficiently.

Overall, the landing was considered satisfactory, with the pilot demonstrating good control and decision-making skills. However, there is room for improvement in terms of maintaining the target threshold speed and ensuring a more precise touchdown position.
