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.

Flight narrative

Departing from Zürich Airport (LSZH), the Airbus A350-900 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took approximately 8 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. As the aircraft lined up on runway 32, it was met with a local weather condition of 7°C temperature and a wind of 21 knots at 259 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 18 knots and a headwind of 11 knots. The aircraft successfully took off, covering a distance of 1,258 meters, which was 40% of the runway length, and reached a liftoff speed of 166 knots.

As the aircraft climbed to its enroute cruise altitude, it passed over Oberglatt, Switzerland, and continued to ascend to 31,774 feet above sea level, an increase of 29,323 feet in just 10 minutes, covering a distance of 66 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise phase started approximately 1 mile northwest of Fleischwangen, Germany, and lasted for 19 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 145 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, initially from 31,795 feet to 4,997 feet above sea level, a decrease of 26,798 feet in 23 minutes, covering 132 nautical miles. The aircraft continued to descend and level off at various points, including over Witten and Hordel, Germany, before finally beginning its final approach to runway 23L at Düsseldorf Airport (EDDL).

The Airbus A350-900 successfully landed on runway 23L, with a touchdown distance of 407 meters, which was 48% of the runway length. The touchdown speed was slightly fast at 127 knots, but the touchdown rate was firm at -399 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was excessively misaligned by 35 meters from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was also significantly misaligned by 34.8 meters from the centerline. The total landing distance was 1,148 meters, and the aircraft used 7,428 kilograms of fuel for the entire flight, which covered a distance of 384 nautical miles and took approximately 73 minutes.

Landing on runway 23L at EDDL Düsseldorf Airport in the Airbus A350-900
Landing Score 81.79 %
Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 23L at EDDL Düsseldorf Airport from the north east was executed with a heading of 233.0° at 4 nm and 1,276 ft above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height and threshold speed of 129 kt, indicating a well-controlled descent. The aircraft touched down at a speed of 127 kt, which was slightly above the ideal touchdown speed, resulting in a firm touchdown rate of -399 fpm.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's distance from the runway threshold was 407 m, which was within the acceptable range. However, the runway touchdown position was excessively misaligned by 35.0 m from the centreline, indicating a deviation from the desired path. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 7 °C and a wind speed of 11 kt at 300°, contributed to a crosswind of 10 kt and a headwind of 4 kt. The total landing distance of 1,148 m, which accounted for 48% of the runway length, was within the acceptable range.

The rollout phase was marked by a significant misalignment from the centreline, with the aircraft deviating by 34.8 m. This deviation, combined with the initial touchdown position misalignment, resulted in a lower overall score of 81.8%. Despite the deviations, the pilot demonstrated good control and adherence to standard operating procedures, ensuring a safe and controlled landing.
