Landing on runway 24R at LEBL Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport in the Vueling EC-MGZ

Landing Score 90.07 %

Landing Summary

The aircraft, Vueling EC-MGZ, successfully landed at LEBL Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport on runway 24R. The final approach was initiated from the north east, heading 246.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,272 feet above ground level. The aircraft maintained a good threshold height and achieved a suitable threshold speed of 139 knots.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 262 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The touchdown speed of 128 knots was within acceptable limits, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the touchdown rate of -225 feet per minute was only fair, suggesting that the aircraft could have maintained a more gradual descent.

One notable issue during the landing was the misalignment of the runway touchdown position, which was off-centerline by 14.8 meters. This could be attributed to factors such as wind or pilot error. Additionally, the runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 15.7 meters from the centerline, which may have been a result of the initial touchdown position.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 8°C and a wind speed of 7 knots from 330°. The crosswind component was 7 knots, while the headwind component was minimal at 1 knot. The total landing distance of 1,649 meters was 57% of the available runway length, which is a reasonable distance considering the aircraft's size and weight.

Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some minor deviations from the ideal touchdown position and rollout alignment. These issues can be addressed through further training and adjustments to the aircraft's approach and landing procedures.
