The Airbus A320 aircraft successfully landed on runway 13C at KMDW Chicago Midway International Airport, but with some notable deviations from the ideal landing parameters. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the northwest, heading 134.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,268 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was conducted with a speed of 133 kt, which was considered good.
However, the threshold height at 88 ft agl was significantly above the target, indicating that the aircraft may have been higher than desired at the point of touchdown. The touchdown point was 189 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which suggests that the aircraft may have been slightly long on the landing. The touchdown speed of 128 kt was also a little fast, and the touchdown rate of -252 fpm was fair but not ideal.
In terms of alignment, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 8.3 meters from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 7.9 meters from the centerline. This suggests that the aircraft may have been slightly off-center during the landing roll.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 31°C and a wind speed of 9 kt at 220°. The crosswind component was 9 kt, while the headwind component was 1 kt. The total landing distance was 1,180 meters, which was 72% of the runway length.
Overall, while the landing was successful, there were some notable deviations from the ideal parameters. The aircraft's speed and alignment during the landing roll were not ideal, and the threshold height was above target. However, the pilot's ability to maintain control and bring the aircraft to a safe stop was demonstrated by the successful completion of the landing.
