The Airbus A320 aircraft successfully landed at GMMX Menara Airport, but with some areas for improvement. The final approach to runway 28 from the east, heading 276.0° at 4 nm and 1,294 ft above ground level (agl), was executed with a good threshold height. The threshold speed of 141 kt was also satisfactory, indicating that the pilot maintained control and stability during the approach.
However, there were some issues with the touchdown. The touchdown speed of 140 kt was slightly faster than ideal, which may have contributed to the heavy touchdown rate of -732 fpm. A heavier touchdown rate can put additional stress on the aircraft's landing gear and may affect the overall safety of the landing.
Another area of concern was the runway touchdown position, which was misaligned by 9.3 m from the centreline. This may have been due to a combination of factors, including wind conditions and pilot error. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 31°C and a wind speed of 5 kt at 356°, may have also played a role in the misalignment.
The total landing distance of 1,499 m was 48% of the runway length, which is within acceptable limits. However, the runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 24.3 m from the centreline, which may indicate a lack of control during the rollout phase.
Overall, while the landing was successful, there are areas for improvement, particularly in terms of touchdown speed and runway alignment. The pilot should focus on maintaining a more stable approach and touchdown, as well as improving control during the rollout phase.
