Landing on runway 22 at VCBI Bandaranaike International Colombo Airport in the Boeing 777-300

Landing Score 92.2 %

Landing Summary

The Boeing 777-300 executed the final approach to runway 22 at VCBI Bandaranaike International Colombo Airport from the north-east on a heading of 217.0° at 4 nm and 1,245 ft agl. The approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits.

At threshold the aircraft encountered a height of 58 ft agl, which was slightly above the target, and established a threshold speed of 147 kt, judged good.

Touchdown occurred 376 m beyond the designated touchdown zone with a speed of 139 kt, also judged good, and a vertical rate of minus 165 fpm, recorded as good. The touchdown point was slightly misaligned by 5.0 m from the centreline. Ambient conditions were 30 °C with wind 6 kt from 210°, including a 1 kt crosswind component and a 6 kt headwind.

The aircraft rolled out over a total landing distance of 2,059 m, representing 61 % of the 3,349 m runway, and runway rollout alignment was very good.

With a final score of 92.2 %, the landing was strong overall; focus on reducing the touchdown point distance to remain within the touchdown zone and tightening centreline alignment to within a few metres will further improve precision.
