Two stabilised approach gates, each with five checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,504 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,504 ft of the 9,550 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 1,765 ft past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Cologne Bonn Airport, the Airbus A320 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 10 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. As it reached the threshold of runway 31R, the aircraft initiated its departure roll, accelerating down the 7,171-foot runway, which represented 57% of its total length. Liftoff occurred at a speed of 171 knots, with a local temperature of 71°F and a gentle headwind of 4 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to its initial cruising altitude, it began its enroute climb 1 mile east of Eil, Germany, rising from 1,170 feet above sea level to 31,959 feet in just 16 minutes, covering a distance of 91 nautical miles. The climb was characterized by a steady increase in altitude, with the aircraft reaching its cruising level over Korbeek-Lo, Belgium. The enroute level cruise phase lasted 10 minutes, during which the aircraft covered 69 nautical miles. The descent phase that followed was initiated 1 mile northwest of Wenduine, Belgium, and took the aircraft down to 7,007 feet above sea level in 19 minutes, covering 107 nautical miles.
As the aircraft continued its journey, it entered another enroute level cruise phase, this time starting 1 mile south of Bodiam, England, and lasting 5 minutes, during which it covered 24 nautical miles. The subsequent descent phase was initiated 1 mile northeast of Burgess Hill, England, and took the aircraft down to 3,016 feet above sea level in just 3 minutes, covering 15 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 08R at London Gatwick Airport was executed from the west, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 130 knots and a touchdown rate of -126 feet per minute. The total landing distance was 5,284 feet, representing 55% of the runway length. Following a smooth rollout, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, concluding its journey that had covered a total distance of 328 nautical miles and consumed 6,260 pounds of fuel.
The final approach to runway 08R at EGKK London Gatwick Airport from the west was executed with precision, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 78.0° at 4 nm and 1,289 ft above ground level. The approach quality was excellent, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 140 kt, indicating a well-controlled descent. The touchdown point was 445 ft beyond the touchdown zone, which, although not ideal, was still within acceptable limits.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed of 130 kt was good, and the touchdown rate of -126 fpm was smooth, indicating a well-executed landing. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 16 ft from the centreline, which may require attention in future approaches. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 70 °F and a gentle wind of 4 kt at 130°, contributed to a stable and predictable approach.
The total landing distance of 5,284 ft, which accounted for 55% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating a well-controlled deceleration and a smooth transition from the landing phase to the taxi phase. Overall, the landing was executed with a high degree of proficiency, earning a score of 97.9%.
