The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,993 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 495 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 4 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-900, then departed from runway 03 at GVNP Nelson Mandela International Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,033 meters, which accounted for 54% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 155 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of 25 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 8 knots at 40 degrees.
As the aircraft climbed out of GVNP Nelson Mandela International Airport, it began its enroute climb 1 mile north of the airport. The climb started at an altitude of 1,022 feet above sea level and continued to an altitude of 36,994 feet above sea level, an increase of 35,972 feet in 41 minutes, covering a distance of 307 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise phase of the flight began 43 miles west of GOOY Léopold Sédar Senghor International Airport Dakar. This phase lasted for 107 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 921 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 44 miles northeast of Dabakala, descending from an altitude of 36,968 feet above sea level to 2,665 feet above sea level, a decrease of 34,304 feet in 25 minutes, covering a distance of 174 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another enroute level cruise phase, this time starting 10 miles north of Tafo and lasting only 2 minutes, during which it covered a distance of 7 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 20 at DGSI Kumasi Airport was made from the north, heading 192.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,294 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway.
The landing on runway 20 at DGSI Kumasi Airport was successful, with a touchdown point 78 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 131 knots, and the touchdown rate was -172 feet per minute, both of which were considered good. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 32 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 2 knots at 50 degrees.
The total landing distance was 953 meters, which accounted for 48% of the runway. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took less than 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,414 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 182 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 9,091 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-900 aircraft successfully landed at DGSI Kumasi Airport, achieving a high score of 99.5%. The final approach to runway 20 was conducted from the north, with the aircraft heading 192.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,294 feet above ground level (agl).
The landing was executed smoothly, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 131 knots, which was within the acceptable threshold speed of 139 knots. The touchdown point was 78 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, but this was still considered a good result given the runway length of 1,993 meters. The touchdown rate of -172 feet per minute (fpm) was also within the acceptable range, indicating a controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 32°C and a gentle wind of 2 knots at 50°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the tailwind component was 2 knots. These conditions contributed to a smooth and stable approach.
The total landing distance of 953 meters was 48% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. This indicates that the pilot's skills and the aircraft's performance were well-matched for the landing. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, with the aircraft maintaining a straight path after touchdown.
Overall, the landing was a success, with the aircraft touching down safely and efficiently on the runway. The high score of 99.5% reflects the pilot's expertise and the aircraft's capabilities, as well as the favorable weather conditions.
