Top opportunity

Shorten the long landing

Arrival Touchdown

Ground effect becomes significant below about one wingspan of height. A Cessna 172, with a 36 ft span, enters ground effect at flare height - the float it feels in the hold-off is ground effect arriving on cue. An A320, with a span around 117 ft, has been in ground effect since before the threshold and there is no sudden cushion to feel, only a gradual reduction in induced drag that lengthens any float you allow.

Landing Summary

The Airbus A350-900 entered the final approach to runway 06 at DNKN Mallam Aminu International Airport from the south-west on a heading of 59.0° at 4 nm and 1,466 ft agl; the approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits.

At threshold the height was good and the threshold speed was good at 143 kt; the aircraft touched down 977 ft beyond the touchdown zone with a touchdown speed of 138 kt, noted as a little fast, and a touchdown rate described as fair at minus 238 fpm, while runway touchdown alignment was perfect.

The landing was completed on runway 06, whose length is 11,205 ft, and the total landing distance recorded was 5,837 ft, representing 52 % of the runway.

Runway rollout alignment was very good.

Maintain the target touchdown speed closer to the calculated VREF and refine the flare to achieve a slightly lower sink rate, which will further reduce the landing distance and improve overall efficiency.
