The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 13,337 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 759 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight on the Boeing 737-800 began with a smooth taxi from the parking area to the runway at LTAC Esenboğa International Airport, taking 8 minutes to cover 2 nm. The departure roll on runway 21L was successful, with a takeoff distance of 3,905 ft, utilizing 35% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 138 kt.
As the aircraft climbed enroute from Ankara to Kazan, there was an increase in altitude from 4,182 ft to 15,970 ft, covering 17 nm in 5 minutes. The subsequent level cruise lasted for 3 minutes, covering 17 nm. Another climb commenced towards Camlidere, reaching an altitude of 25,955 ft from 15,972 ft, covering 25 nm in 5 minutes.
During the descent near Kandira, the aircraft decreased in altitude from 25,831 ft to 4,995 ft over 19 minutes, covering 73 nm. The following cruise segment lasted 2 minutes, covering 6 nm. A further descent near LTFM İstanbul Airport saw the aircraft descending from 4,953 ft to 1,494 ft in 3 minutes over 11 nm.
The final approach to runway 17L at LTFM İstanbul Airport was executed successfully, with a touchdown distance of 755 ft. The touchdown speed of 122 kt and rate of -171 ft/m were within safe parameters. The landing on the 13,337 ft runway was well-aligned with good threshold height and threshold speed of 127 kt. The total landing distance was 4,328 ft, covering 32% of the runway length.
The flight covered a total distance of 238 nm, utilizing 5,903 lbs of fuel over a duration of 81 minutes. The touchdown alignment, runway rollout, and taxi to the parking area were all executed smoothly, providing a successful conclusion to the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed on runway 17L at LTFM İstanbul Airport, demonstrating exceptional piloting skills and adherence to standard operating procedures. The final approach was executed from the north, heading 179.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,278 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft's touchdown on the runway was characterized by a good threshold height, indicating that the pilots maintained a safe and controlled descent. The threshold speed of 127 knots was also within the acceptable range, signifying that the pilots had properly configured the aircraft for landing. The touchdown distance of 755 feet was also satisfactory, demonstrating the pilots' ability to accurately judge the aircraft's speed and altitude.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was recorded at 122 knots, which was within the acceptable range for a safe landing. The touchdown rate of -171 feet per minute (fpm) was also good, indicating that the pilots had successfully arrested the aircraft's descent and maintained a stable flight path. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilots had accurately aligned the aircraft with the runway centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 60°F and a wind speed of 4 knots at 20°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the tailwind component was 3 knots. These conditions did not pose a significant challenge to the pilots, and they were able to execute a safe and controlled landing.
The total landing distance of 4,328 feet was 32% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. This indicates that the pilots had successfully managed the aircraft's speed and altitude to achieve a short and controlled landing. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the pilots had maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and had brought it to a safe stop.
Overall, this landing was a testament to the pilots' skill and experience, as well as the aircraft's performance and handling characteristics. The successful landing on runway 17L at LTFM İstanbul Airport was a result of careful planning, precise execution, and a thorough understanding of the aircraft's capabilities and limitations.
