Landing on runway 30R at KBFL Meadows Field in the F14A

Landing Score 98.85 %

Landing Summary

The F14A aircraft successfully landed on runway 30R at KBFL Meadows Field, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its landing maneuver. The aircraft approached the runway from the southeast, heading 315.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 894 feet above ground level (agl). This approach was executed at a suitable altitude and distance from the runway, allowing the pilot to maintain control and precision throughout the landing process.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was 146 knots, which is within the recommended threshold speed for the runway. The touchdown distance of 482 feet was also satisfactory, indicating that the pilot had successfully controlled the aircraft's descent and maintained a stable approach. The touchdown rate of -164 feet per minute (fpm) was also within acceptable limits, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's energy and maintain a safe rate of descent.

However, there was a slight deviation from the centerline, with the runway touchdown position being 15 feet off-center. This minor misalignment may be attributed to factors such as wind or pilot error, but it did not significantly impact the overall safety or success of the landing. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 73°F and a wind speed of 10 knots at 323°, were favorable for the landing, with a slight headwind component that may have contributed to the aircraft's stable approach.

The total landing distance of 2,268 feet was 31% of the runway length, which is a reasonable and acceptable distance for a landing of this type. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilot had successfully controlled the aircraft's rotation and maintained a stable rollout. Overall, this landing demonstrates a high level of proficiency and skill on the part of the pilot, with a score of 84.5% indicating a very good performance.
