Departure
Ease the nose up sooner to lift off at 149 kt instead of letting speed build on the ground.
What happened: The aircraft lifted off at 167 kt, 18 kt above the target liftoff speed.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 149 kt at liftoff
See Departure Roll
Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,873 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,873 m of the 3,053 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 468 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 7 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The Airbus A320 then departed from runway 10L at SBGR André Franco Montoro International Airport, with a takeoff distance of 1,968 meters, which was 55% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 167 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 26 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 17 knots from a direction of 120 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 12 knots and a headwind of 12 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 2 miles northeast of SBGR André Franco Montoro International Airport, and climbed from an altitude of 3,483 feet above sea level to 23,586 feet above sea level, an increase of 20,102 feet, in 10 minutes and covering 59 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 15 miles west of Ubatuba and lasted 7 minutes, covering 48 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 11 miles southwest of SILI Ilha dos Porcos Grandes Airport Angra Dos Reis, and descended from 23,565 feet above sea level to 1,308 feet above sea level, a decrease of 22,257 feet, in 14 minutes and covering 69 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 15 at SBGL Rio Galeão – Tom Jobim International Airport was made from the northwest, heading 126.0 degrees, at 4 nautical miles and 1,283 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 15, which had a length of 3,053 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 130 knots. The touchdown point was 46 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 124 knots, which was good. However, the touchdown rate was hard at -449 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.3 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 26 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 15 knots from a direction of 220 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 15 knots and a tailwind of 1 knot. The total landing distance was 1,786 meters, which was 59% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good.
The aircraft then taxiied to the parking area from the runway, a process that took 5 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 183 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 46 minutes. The aircraft used 1,551 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A320 successfully landed at SBGL Rio Galeão – Tom Jobim International Airport, achieving a score of 94.6%. The aircraft approached the runway from the northwest, heading 126.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,283 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with good control, and the aircraft landed on runway 15, which has a length of 3,053 meters.
The threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed was maintained at 130 knots, indicating a well-executed approach. The touchdown point was 46 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The touchdown speed of 124 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating good control during the landing phase.
However, the touchdown rate was somewhat hard, at -449 feet per minute (fpm), which may indicate a slightly aggressive approach. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.3 meters from the centerline, which could be a result of the crosswind or tailwind conditions.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 26°C and a wind speed of 15 knots from 220°. This resulted in a crosswind of 15 knots and a tailwind of 1 knot. Despite these conditions, the aircraft's landing performance was satisfactory.
The total landing distance was 1,786 meters, which is 59% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating good control and a well-executed approach. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control during the landing phase.
Overall, the Airbus A320's landing at SBGL Rio Galeão – Tom Jobim International Airport was successful, with a score of 94.6%. While there were some minor deviations, the aircraft's performance was generally satisfactory, and the pilot demonstrated good control and decision-making skills during the approach and landing phases.
