The Airbus A319 successfully landed on runway 26L at KIAH George Bush Intercontinental Houston Airport, achieving a score of 94.3%. The aircraft approached the runway from the east, heading 270.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,304 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with good threshold height, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct altitude as it approached the runway.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft maintained a good threshold speed of 129 knots, which is within the acceptable range for a safe landing. The touchdown distance of 317 meters was also within the expected parameters, demonstrating the pilot's ability to control the aircraft's descent and speed. However, the touchdown speed of 127 knots was slightly below the expected value, which may indicate a slight overcorrection by the pilot.
One area of concern was the touchdown rate, which was recorded at -412 feet per minute (fpm). This is considered a hard touchdown, which may have put additional stress on the aircraft's landing gear and potentially caused some discomfort for the passengers. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 9.9 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's alignment during the final approach.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 22°C and a gentle wind of 2 knots at 210°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, and the headwind component was 1 knot, which did not significantly impact the landing. The total landing distance of 1,393 meters was 49% of the runway length, which is within the acceptable range.
During the rollout, the aircraft's alignment was slightly misaligned by 9.7 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's control inputs during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was considered successful, but there were some areas of concern that need to be addressed to improve the pilot's performance and ensure a safe and smooth landing.
