Landing on runway 01C at KIAD Washington Dulles Intl in the Douglas DC-3

Landing Score 98.08 %

Landing Summary

Great job on achieving a landing score of 98.1%! Let's break down your performance in each phase of the landing to see what went well and areas that could be improved.

During the Approach Phase, you demonstrated excellent glideslope alignment, which shows a strong understanding of the aircraft's descent path. However, it was noted that your speed was slightly above the target. This can be improved by adjusting your throttle and flaps to ensure a smoother approach.

Moving on to the Landing Phase, you maintained a good threshold height, indicating a well-controlled descent towards the runway. Your landing flare was perfect, indicating a smooth transition from descent to touchdown. This is essential for a safe and comfortable landing for both passengers and crew.

In the Touchdown Phase, your touchdown rate was excellent, demonstrating your ability to gauge the aircraft's descent rate accurately. Although your speed was above target, it did not negatively impact your touchdown. Additionally, landing within the touchdown zone and only 4.5 meters off the runway's centerline shows precise control during this critical phase of the landing.

Finally, during the Rollout Phase, your runway alignment was slightly off at 5.6 meters from the centerline. Being slightly off-center can affect the aircraft's stability during rollout. It would be beneficial to practice maintaining a straight path during this phase to improve overall alignment.

Overall, you've shown excellent skill and precision throughout the landing phases. By fine-tuning your speed control during the approach and rollout phases, you can further enhance your landing performance. Keep up the good work, and continue practicing to achieve even better scores in the future!
