Flight narrative

The flight began with the aircraft, an Airbus A321, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at OEMA Prince Mohammad Bin Abdulaziz Airport in Medina, Saudi Arabia. This process took 7 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The departure roll took place on runway 18, with the aircraft lifting off after a takeoff distance of 1,988 meters, which was 65% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 162 knots.

As the aircraft climbed out of the airport, it encountered local weather conditions of 40°C temperature and winds of 24 knots at 80°. The crosswind component was 24 knots, while the tailwind component was 6 knots. The enroute climb started 1 mile south of the airport, with the aircraft ascending from 3,084 feet above sea level to 10,151 feet above sea level, an increase of 7,066 feet in just 3 minutes, covering a distance of 12 nautical miles.

The enroute level cruise began 11 miles southeast of Medina and lasted for 2 minutes, covering 9 nautical miles. However, the aircraft then began another climb, this time from 10,359 feet above sea level to 38,367 feet above sea level, an increase of 28,007 feet in 23 minutes, covering a distance of 169 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, this time lasting 41 minutes and covering 325 nautical miles, starting 30 miles north of Afif in the Riyadh Region of Saudi Arabia.

As the aircraft continued its journey, it began its descent from 38,339 feet above sea level to 15,668 feet above sea level, a decrease of 22,671 feet in 12 minutes, covering a distance of 90 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise phase began again, this time lasting 2 minutes and covering 10 nautical miles, starting 16 miles northeast of Khobar in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia. The aircraft then began its final descent, from 15,664 feet above sea level to 1,380 feet above sea level, a decrease of 14,285 feet in 8 minutes, covering a distance of 20 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 30R at OBBI Bahrain International Airport was made from the southeast, with the aircraft heading 303.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,332 feet above ground level. The landing took place on the runway, which was 3,346 meters long, with a good threshold height. The threshold speed was well above the target speed at 147 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 261 meters, but the touchdown speed was fast at 144 knots. The touchdown rate was good at -200 feet per minute.

The runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 19.9 meters from the centerline, and the local weather conditions were 32°C temperature and winds of 23 knots at 320°. The crosswind component was 7 knots, while the headwind component was 22 knots. The total landing distance was 968 meters, which was 29% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 19.9 meters from the centerline.

The taxiing from the runway to the parking area took 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 643 nautical miles, taking 102 minutes, and the aircraft used 5,085 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing report
Landing on runway 30R at OBBI Bahrain International Airport in the Airbus A321
Landing Score 90.09 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 aircraft successfully landed at OBBI Bahrain International Airport, achieving a score of 90.1%. The final approach to runway 30R was initiated from the south east, heading 303.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,332 feet above ground level.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway, with a touchdown distance of 261 meters, which was considered good. However, the touchdown speed of 144 knots was slightly faster than the target speed, indicating that the pilot may have been able to maintain a more controlled descent. The touchdown rate of -200 feet per minute was also good, indicating a smooth and controlled landing.

Despite the successful landing, there were some notable issues with the aircraft's alignment on the runway. The runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 19.9 meters from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by the same amount. This suggests that the pilot may have had difficulty maintaining a straight course during the landing, potentially due to crosswind or other factors.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were hot, with a temperature of 32°C, and windy, with a wind speed of 23 knots at 320°. The crosswind component was relatively small, at 7 knots, but the headwind component was significant, at 22 knots. This may have contributed to the difficulties the pilot experienced with maintaining a straight course during the landing.

Overall, while the landing was successful, there were some notable issues with the aircraft's alignment on the runway, which may have been influenced by the weather conditions.
