Aircraft Vueling EC-MGZ successfully landed at Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport, achieving a high score of 98.9%. The aircraft approached the runway from the southeast, heading 312.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,276 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a precise final approach, ensuring a good threshold height and speed of 133 knots upon touchdown.
Upon landing, the aircraft demonstrated a satisfactory touchdown distance of 268 meters, which is well within the acceptable range. The touchdown speed of 128 knots was also within the desired parameters. However, the touchdown rate of -207 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, indicating that the aircraft may have touched down slightly harder than intended.
One notable aspect of the landing was the slight misalignment of the runway touchdown position, deviating by 4.4 meters from the centerline. This minor deviation may have been due to factors such as wind or pilot error, but it did not significantly impact the overall performance of the landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 5°C and a wind speed of 8 knots from 290°. The crosswind component was relatively low at 3 knots, while the headwind component was 7 knots. These conditions may have contributed to the slight misalignment of the touchdown position.
The total landing distance of 1,146 meters was 36% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and ensured a smooth transition from landing to taxiing.
Overall, the landing of Vueling EC-MGZ at Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport was a successful operation, with the pilot demonstrating a high level of skill and precision. While there were some minor deviations from the ideal performance, the aircraft landed safely and efficiently, with a score of 98.9%.
