The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 13,083 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 1,819 ft past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking area to the runway, which took 13 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a FFX P180, then departed from runway 16 at Lyon Bron Airport (LFLY). The takeoff distance was 2,188 feet, which accounted for 55% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 112 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 33 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 4 knots from a direction of 129 degrees. The crosswind component was 2 knots, while the headwind component was 3 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, which started overhead the town of Saint-Priest in the Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes region of France. The climb took 19 minutes and covered a distance of 57 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 1,736 feet above sea level to 34,526 feet.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which began 1 mile southwest of the town of Arbusigny in the Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes region of France. This phase of the flight lasted for 98 minutes and covered a distance of 1,022 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 4 miles southeast of the town of Oster in the Chernihivska Oblast region of Ukraine. The descent took 10 minutes and covered a distance of 31 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from an altitude of 33,726 feet above sea level to 915 feet.
The final approach to runway 18L at Boryspil International Airport (UKBB) was made from the north, with the aircraft heading 179.0 degrees at an altitude of 445 feet above ground level and a distance of 1 nautical mile from the runway. The landing was made on runway 18L, which had a length of 13,083 feet. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 25 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 6 knots from a direction of 12 degrees. The crosswind component was 1 knot, while the tailwind component was 6 knots.
The touchdown point was 411 feet beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 96 knots and a smooth touchdown rate of -147 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also perfect. The total landing distance was 3,296 feet, which accounted for 25% of the runway. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking area took 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 1,115 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 135 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 2,097 pounds of fuel during the flight.
The aircraft, identified as FFX P180 03 01, successfully landed at UKBB Boryspil International Airport, showcasing exceptional piloting skills. The final approach to runway 18L was executed from the north, with a heading of 179.0° at a distance of 1 nautical mile and an altitude of 445 feet above ground level (agl). This precise approach allowed the aircraft to touch down smoothly on the runway.
The landing was characterized by a good threshold height, which is a critical factor in ensuring a safe and controlled touchdown. The threshold speed of 117 knots was maintained, and the touchdown point was 411 feet beyond the touchdown zone. This slight overrun is not uncommon, but it was still within acceptable limits. The touchdown speed of 96 knots was also well within the recommended range, and the touchdown rate of -147 feet per minute (fpm) was smooth, indicating a well-controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 25°F and a wind speed of 6 knots from a direction of 12°. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a tailwind of 6 knots, which did not significantly impact the landing. The runway length of 13,083 feet provided ample space for the aircraft to land and roll out safely.
The total landing distance of 3,296 feet was 25% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. This indicates that the pilot executed a precise and controlled approach, resulting in a smooth touchdown and a short roll-out distance. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, demonstrating the pilot's expertise in maintaining control of the aircraft during the critical phases of flight.
Overall, the landing of FFX P180 03 01 at UKBB Boryspil International Airport was a textbook example of safe and controlled flight operations. The pilot's skills and experience were evident in the precise approach, smooth touchdown, and short roll-out distance, making this landing a success.
