Landing on runway 12 at EGFF Cardiff International Airport in the Airbus A320

Landing Score 95.25 %

Landing Summary

The Airbus A320 successfully landed at Cardiff International Airport, achieving a score of 95.2%. The aircraft was approaching runway 12 from the west, heading 117.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,272 feet above ground level (agl). The landing was executed on a runway with a length of 1,986 meters.

The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed was above the target speed, coming in at 148 knots. This may have been due to the aircraft's descent rate or the pilot's decision to maintain a higher speed for the landing.

The touchdown point was 61 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is slightly off-center but not excessively so. The touchdown speed of 138 knots was a little fast, which may have contributed to the firm touchdown rate of -392 feet per minute (fpm). Despite this, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 15°C and winds of 9 knots at 60°. This resulted in a crosswind of 7 knots and a headwind of 5 knots. The total landing distance was 1,307 meters, which is 66% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft was able to touch down and stop within a reasonable distance.

The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain its alignment with the runway centerline after touchdown and during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft touching down safely and coming to a stop within a reasonable distance.
