Departure Taxi

Twenty knots on a monitor produces the visual sensation of about ten. The advice to "taxi at a walking pace" cannot fix this, because your sense of walking pace is exactly the thing that's broken. Put the groundspeed readout in your scan and obey it for the next fifty flights, the way a student pilot leans on the airspeed indicator before learning to read attitude.

Flight narrative

The flight began with the aircraft, an Airbus A319, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport, taking approximately 9 minutes to cover a distance of 3 nautical miles. The departure roll took place on runway 22L, with the aircraft lifting off at a speed of 149 knots after covering 39% of the runway's length.

As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions of 9°C and a wind speed of 4 knots from a direction of 219°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 4 knots. The enroute climb began overhead the airport, with the aircraft ascending from an altitude of 1,676 feet above sea level to 37,896 feet, a vertical increase of 36,220 feet, in 14 minutes and covering a distance of 144 nautical miles.

Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 50 minutes and covered a distance of 651 nautical miles. This phase took place 5 miles north of Fountain City, Indiana. The enroute descent phase began 6 miles south of Provencal, Louisiana, with the aircraft descending from an altitude of 37,847 feet to 1,404 feet, a vertical decrease of 36,443 feet, in 34 minutes and covering a distance of 140 nautical miles.

As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its final approach to runway 26L at George Bush Intercontinental Houston Airport, flying from the east at a heading of 270.0° and at an altitude of 1,304 feet above ground level. The landing took place on a runway with a length of 2,863 meters, and the aircraft touched down at a speed of 127 knots, with a touchdown distance of 317 meters. The touchdown rate was slightly hard at -412 feet per minute.

Landing on runway 26L at KIAH George Bush Intercontinental Houston Airport in the Airbus A319
Landing Score 94.31 %
Landing Summary

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.
