The report noted that noise levels were measured for an average day; however, at certain times, noise levels significantly exceeded the daily average and often surpassed the 65-decibel threshold. Critics argue that the study was flawed since noise levels were measured in July 2021, when COVID-19 was still affecting operations.

Well, for sure the training of pilots in swept-wing jets has improved dramatically, and the aircraft, runway environment, and approach aids have all made significant leaps forward. Some pilots soar like eagles to a smooth touchdown, and others settle to the runway like wounded turkeys. So, what happened? No pressure.

Key Takeaways Start by setting up your approach correctly to ensure you arrive at the threshold perfectly every time. You can only begin improving the touchdown if you’ve mastered positioning your aircraft above the runway threshold correctly. See if the runway appears to move relative to the windshield.

Not only must you fly unnervingly slow, but you also have to pick a spot on the runway and hit it. It’s a runway that is too short for a normal takeoff or landing but still usable with certain precautions. This allows them to safely operate into and out of these tight runways. You’re not alone.

A bounced landing is a condition where the aircraft lands on the runway, but instead of rolling on the surface after touchdown, it rebounds/bounces off the ground. This can happen for several reasons: Landing Too Fast At high speeds, your aircraft may be unable to slow down enough before touching down on the runway.

But too much airspeed can lead to bounced landings if the pilot tries to force the airplane on the runway or a runway excursion if the airplane runs out of room before it runs out of speed.

At that point, you’re simply looking down the runway, and then it lifts off. You just make one great big U-turn, that way you can kind of watch the runway the whole time.
