Top opportunity

Shorten the long landing

Arrival Touchdown

Ground effect becomes significant below about one wingspan of height. A Cessna 172, with a 36 ft span, enters ground effect at flare height - the float it feels in the hold-off is ground effect arriving on cue. An A320, with a span around 117 ft, has been in ground effect since before the threshold and there is no sudden cushion to feel, only a gradual reduction in induced drag that lengthens any float you allow.

Landing Summary

The TBM 930 began its final approach to runway 21R at SVMC La Chinita International Airport from the north, tracking a heading of 202.0° at 4 nm and 491 ft agl. The approach was assessed as unstable at the 1,000 ft gate, being off the glideslope.

At the threshold the runway length was 3,000 m and the threshold height was good. The threshold speed was well above target at 95 kt.

Touchdown occurred 292 m beyond the touchdown zone with a speed of 81 kt, described as a little fast. The touchdown rate was good at minus 169 fpm and the touchdown point was slightly misaligned by 3.6 m from the centreline. Total landing distance was 1,168 m, representing 39 % of the runway.

Runway rollout alignment was perfect.

Maintain the target approach speed to keep the threshold speed within limits and adjust flare timing to achieve a touchdown speed closer to the intended VREF, which will also help place the aircraft within the touchdown zone and improve centreline alignment.
