Departure Taxi

Flight narrative

The flight began with the aircraft, an Airbus A321, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Seattle–Tacoma International Airport, taking 6 minutes to cover a distance of 4 nautical miles. The departure roll took place on runway 16L, with the aircraft lifting off after a takeoff distance of 1,742 meters, which was 48% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 160 knots.

As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions of 11 degrees Celsius and winds of 9 knots at 69 degrees. The crosswind was 8 knots, while the tailwind was 3 knots. The enroute climb began 1 mile east of Normandy Park, Washington, and saw the aircraft ascend from 1,362 feet above sea level to 34,917 feet above sea level, an increase of 33,555 feet in 20 minutes, covering a distance of 114 nautical miles.

The enroute level cruise started 11 miles northeast of the 03WN Aerostone Ranch Airport in Goldendale, Washington, and lasted for 351 minutes, covering a distance of 2,762 nautical miles. The enroute descent began 9 miles west of the MRLV La Cueva Airport in Liberia, Costa Rica, and saw the aircraft descend from 34,924 feet above sea level to 4,360 feet above sea level, a decrease of 30,564 feet in 17 minutes, covering a distance of 95 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 07 at Juan Santamaría International Airport took place from the southwest, with the aircraft heading at 70.0 degrees at 2 nautical miles and 1,311 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 07 took place with a runway length of 2,519 meters, and the threshold height was good. However, the threshold speed was excessively high at 186 knots, and the touchdown speed was too fast at 174 knots. The touchdown rate was excellent at -61 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.1 meters from the centerline.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 26 degrees Celsius and winds of 2 knots at 80 degrees, with a crosswind of 0 knots and a headwind of 2 knots. The total flight distance was 2,979 nautical miles, taking 391 minutes, and the aircraft used 13,476 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 07 at MROC Juan Santamaría International Airport in the Airbus A321neo
Landing Score 84.9 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 aircraft successfully landed at MROC Juan Santamaría International Airport, but the landing was not without some issues. The final approach was conducted from the southwest, heading 70.0° at 2 nautical miles and 1,311 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 07, which has a length of 2,519 meters.

The threshold height was reported as good, but the threshold speed was excessively high at 186 knots. This indicates that the aircraft was traveling at a speed that was higher than recommended for a safe landing. The touchdown point was 422 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which suggests that the aircraft may have been slightly too far back from the optimal landing position.

The touchdown speed of 174 knots was also reported as too fast, which could have put additional stress on the aircraft's landing gear and potentially increased the risk of a hard landing. However, the touchdown rate was excellent at -61 feet per minute (fpm), which indicates that the aircraft was able to touch down smoothly and with minimal impact.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.1 meters from the centerline, which could have made the landing more challenging for the pilots. The local weather conditions were relatively calm, with a temperature of 26°C and a wind speed of 2 knots at 80°. The crosswind was negligible, but the headwind was 2 knots, which may have contributed to the slightly high threshold speed.

Overall, while the landing was not perfect, the aircraft was able to touch down safely and with minimal issues. However, the excessively high threshold speed and too-fast touchdown speed suggest that the pilots may need to work on refining their landing technique to achieve a more optimal landing.
