Top opportunity

Shorten the long landing

Arrival Touchdown

Ground effect becomes significant below about one wingspan of height. A Cessna 172, with a 36 ft span, enters ground effect at flare height - the float it feels in the hold-off is ground effect arriving on cue. An A320, with a span around 117 ft, has been in ground effect since before the threshold and there is no sudden cushion to feel, only a gradual reduction in induced drag that lengthens any float you allow.

Cruise began approximately 1 mile south east of Water Mill, New York, and persisted for 254 minutes, during which the aircraft traversed 1,926 nm at level flight.

Descent was initiated 32 miles north of Isla Grande, Provincia de Colon, Panama, with the aircraft descending from 33,906 ft asl to 1,642 ft asl, a loss of 32,264 ft over 17 minutes and a distance of 99 nm.

The final approach to runway 03R at MPTO Tocumen International Airport was conducted from the south west, on a heading of 31.0°, at 3 nm and 1,605 ft agl.

Landing on runway 03R was recorded with a runway length of 3,053 m; the threshold height at 105 ft agl was noted as excessively over target and the threshold speed was high at 162 kt. Touchdown occurred 532 m beyond the touchdown zone, at a speed of 141 kt, with a hard touchdown rate of minus 590 fpm and a lateral deviation of 3.9 m from the centreline. Local weather reported a temperature of 27 °C, wind 4 kt at 0°, a crosswind of 2 kt and a headwind of 3 kt. Total landing distance measured 1,657 m, equal to 54 % of the runway.

Runway rollout alignment was assessed as very good.

The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 4 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.

In total, the flight covered 2,172 nm, required 303 minutes of elapsed time, and consumed 12,696 kg of fuel.

Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 03R at MPTO Tocumen International Airport was flown from the south-west on a heading of 31.0 ° at 3 nm and 1,605 ft agl. At the 1,000 ft gate the approach was assessed as unstable, with a sink rate too high and the aircraft off the glideslope. Ambient conditions were 27 °C with a wind of 4 kt from 0 °, including a 2 kt crosswind component and a 3 kt headwind.

At threshold the aircraft was 105 ft agl, a height described as excessively over target, and the threshold speed was too high at 162 kt. The flare commenced from this elevated position and speed, leading to a high-energy touchdown.

Touchdown occurred 532 m beyond the designated touchdown zone, with a speed of 141 kt that was fast for the configuration. The aircraft impacted the runway with a very hard rate of minus 590 fpm and was slightly misaligned by 3.9 m from the centreline. The total landing distance used was 1,657 m, representing 54 % of the 3,053 m runway.

Rollout alignment was very good, keeping the aircraft on the centreline through the deceleration phase.

To improve future performance, focus on achieving a stabilized approach by the 1,000 ft gate, ensuring sink rate and glideslope adherence and reducing speed to the target before flare. Managing speed and descent rate will help place the touchdown within the zone and lessen the vertical impact, supporting a smoother landing.

Flare
51.88 %
The flare strayed well off the target profile. Crossing the threshold 29 kt above target, the flare took all the sink out 30 ft agl above the runway and the aircraft then dropped the rest of the way, 647 fpm of sink coming back. Touchdown was 1,011 m past the threshold. Hold the attitude and let it settle rather than pushing - a balloon is almost always excess speed, so the fix is on the approach, not in the flare.
