Every pilot’s heard the tale, that the quality of their skills as an aviator hangs on just one aspect of every flight: the landing. Whether that’s true or not, judging an arrival as a good or nearly perfect in a small airplane has always been subjective, until now.
CloudAhoy Adds Facts to Landing Appraisals
Key Takeaways:
- CloudAhoy's updated software now provides precise, objective data for evaluating small aircraft landings, replacing traditional subjective judgment.
- The software measures key landing parameters such as aircraft speed at the runway threshold, exact touchdown spot, and remaining runway, and can also track the start of a missed approach climb.
- Data accuracy for these precise landing metrics is improved with external GPS devices or EFIS-equipped aircraft, compared to using a smartphone's built-in GPS.
