The flight began with the aircraft, an MD-83, taxiing from its parking spot to the runway, a process that took 7 minutes and covered a distance of 4 nautical miles. The departure roll took place on runway 13L at Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport (LHBP), with the aircraft using 62% of the runway's length to achieve liftoff. The takeoff speed was 163 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 6 °C and a gentle headwind of 3 knots from a direction of 140 °.

After takeoff, the aircraft entered a right-hand pattern, which it completed in a relatively short distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 115 seconds. The pattern crosswind was minimal, with the aircraft covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in just 11 seconds. The downwind turn was executed at an angle of 45 degrees to the runway, with the aircraft covering a distance of 6 nautical miles. The downwind leg itself was relatively short, lasting 38 seconds and covering a distance of 1 nautical mile.

As the aircraft began its final approach to runway 31R at LHBP, it was flying from the southeast at a heading of 322.0 ° and an altitude of 556 feet above ground level (agl). The approach was made from a distance of 4 nautical miles, and the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 130 knots. The touchdown distance was good, at 457 meters, and the touchdown rate was fair at -266 feet per minute (fpm).

However, the aircraft's touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline, by 8.9 meters. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 4 °C and a gentle tailwind of 3 knots from a direction of 132 °. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned, by 12.1 meters from the centreline. Despite these minor issues, the total landing distance was 2,512 meters, which was 68% of the runway's length.

The total flight distance was 14 nautical miles, and the flight used a total of -3,481 kilograms of fuel. The flight was completed in 9 minutes, bringing the aircraft safely back to the ground.

Landing on runway 31R at LHBP Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport in the MD-83

Landing Score 94.77 %

Landing Summary

The MD-83 aircraft successfully landed at LHBP Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport, achieving a score of 94.8%. The final approach was conducted from the south east, heading 322.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 556 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 31R, which has a length of 3,701 meters.

The threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed was maintained at 133 knots, indicating a smooth and controlled approach. The touchdown distance of 457 meters was also within acceptable limits. However, the touchdown speed of 130 knots was slightly below the expected value, and the touchdown rate of -266 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, suggesting that the aircraft may have experienced a slight bounce or oscillation upon touchdown.

One notable issue during the landing was the misalignment of the runway touchdown position, which was off-centerline by 8.9 meters. This may have been due to factors such as wind or pilot error. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 4°C and a wind speed of 3 knots from a direction of 132°. The crosswind component was negligible, but there was a slight tailwind of 3 knots.

The total landing distance of 2,512 meters was 68% of the runway length, which is within acceptable limits. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 12.1 meters from the centerline, indicating that the aircraft may have experienced some difficulty in maintaining a straight path during the rollout phase. Overall, while the landing was successful, there were some minor issues that could be addressed to improve the aircraft's performance and safety.
