Top opportunity

Hold the approach angle

Arrival Final 2

Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 8 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, an Airbus A320, then departed from runway 20 at Tribhuvan International Airport (VNKT) in Nepal. The takeoff distance was 1,651 meters, which accounted for 56% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 160 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 25 degrees Celsius and winds of 8 knots at a direction of 309 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 7 knots and a tailwind of 2 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile east of Patan in the Bagmati Province of Nepal. The climb took 12 minutes and covered a distance of 64 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from 5,341 feet above sea level to 33,497 feet.

Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 4 miles southwest of Phaplu Airport (VNPL) in the Province 1 of Nepal. This phase lasted for 11 minutes and covered a distance of 91 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 6 miles southwest of Mirik in West Bengal, India. The descent took 14 minutes and covered a distance of 71 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from 33,513 feet to 14,187 feet.

Landing on runway 15 at VQPR Paro International Airport in the Airbus A320
Landing Score 80.28 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A320 successfully landed at VQPR Paro International Airport, achieving an overall score of 80.3%. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the north, heading 181.0° at a distance of 2 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,518 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was made to runway 15, which has a length of 1,991 meters.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down at a speed of 138 knots, which was slightly faster than the target speed. The touchdown distance of 415 meters was considered good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the touchdown rate of -796 feet per minute (fpm) was very heavy, suggesting that the aircraft may have touched down with a significant amount of force.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 14°C and a wind speed of 7 knots from 185°. The crosswind component was 4 knots, while the headwind component was 6 knots. These conditions did not appear to have a significant impact on the landing, as the runway touchdown alignment was very good.

The total landing distance of 1,340 meters was 67% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft was able to stop within a reasonable distance. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, suggesting that the aircraft was able to maintain a stable and controlled roll-out after touchdown.

Overall, while the landing was not perfect, with a fast touchdown speed and a heavy touchdown rate, the aircraft was able to touch down safely and maintain control throughout the roll-out. The score of 80.3% suggests that there is room for improvement, but the landing was still considered successful.
