Landing Summary

The PA28 Warrior II aircraft successfully landed at KMTP Montauk Airport, achieving a score of 92.4%. The final approach was conducted from the southwest, heading 51.0° at 4 nautical miles and 651 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 06, which has a length of 693 meters.

The threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 61 knots. The touchdown distance was good, measuring 110 meters, and the touchdown speed was also within acceptable limits at 56 knots. The touchdown rate of -176 feet per minute (fpm) was within the desired range, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.

However, there were some minor deviations from the ideal landing performance. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.9 meters from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was also slightly off by 8.8 meters from the centerline. Despite these minor deviations, the total landing distance of 196 meters was only 28% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 17°C and a light wind of 2 knots from 179°. The crosswind and tailwind components were both minimal, at 1 knot each, which likely contributed to the smooth landing performance. Overall, the landing was considered good, with only minor deviations from the ideal performance.
