Landing on runway 27R at EGLL London Heathrow Airport in the Airbus A320

Landing Score 97.78 %

Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 27R at EGLL was conducted from the east on a heading of 270.0° at 4 NM and 1,277 ft agl, with ambient temperature 15 °C and a wind of 2 kt from 352°. The aircraft maintained the prescribed glide path and speed, arriving on final with the expected configuration.

During the threshold and flare segment the aircraft passed the threshold at 62 ft agl, which was above the target height, while the threshold speed of 137 kt was recorded as good. The flare was initiated in accordance with standard technique, but the touchdown point was measured 155 m beyond the designated touchdown zone.

Touchdown occurred with a speed of 131 kt, noted as a little fast, and a firm vertical rate of minus 300 fpm. Runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the aircraft settled on the runway within the expected parameters.

Rollout covered a total distance of 1,283 m, representing 33 % of the 3,896 m runway, and the runway rollout alignment remained perfect throughout the deceleration phase.

With a score of 97.8 %, the landing was strong; refining the flare height to meet the target threshold altitude and adjusting the approach speed slightly lower will help bring the touchdown point inside the zone and reduce the modest excess speed.
