Landing on runway 16 at YMML Melbourne International Airport in the Rex Airlines (VH-REX)

Landing Score 86.34 %

Landing Summary

The Rex Airlines aircraft, VH-REX, successfully landed at Melbourne International Airport (YMML) on runway 16. The final approach was initiated from the north, heading 171.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,921 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's performance during the landing was evaluated, and it scored 86.3%.

The aircraft's approach to the runway was satisfactory, with the threshold height being well above the target. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 124 knots. Despite this, the touchdown point was 263 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively safe distance. The touchdown speed of 114 knots was within the acceptable range, indicating a good control of the aircraft's descent.

The touchdown rate of -240 feet per minute (fpm) was considered fair, suggesting that the aircraft could have been brought down more smoothly. Nevertheless, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway during the landing.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 17°C and a wind speed of 9 knots from 190°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the headwind component was 9 knots, which helped to stabilize the aircraft during the landing.

The total landing distance of 1,488 meters was 41% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This indicates that the aircraft was able to land safely and efficiently, with a good rollout alignment. Overall, the landing performance of VH-REX was satisfactory, with some areas for improvement, such as the touchdown rate.
