FAA approach category C/D Typical Vref 120 to 145 kt 17 aircraft

Target for descent rate

55 to 110fpm

Full marks for descent rate up to 110 fpm; under 55 fpm the coach says the touchdown was softer than this aircraft is normally flown.

Scoring thresholds.

Roundout applies these to every aircraft in this category, except where an aircraft carries its own G-force curve or tail-strike limit. Scores fall in a straight line between the points, from 0 to 100 for each part; the composite formula is in the scoring methodology.

The 17 aircraft in it.

Every one of them is held to the target above. What sets them apart is their own Vref, quoted at the reference weight, usually the maximum landing weight; Roundout adjusts it to the weight you land at.
