Landing on runway 09L at EGLL London Heathrow Airport in the Airbus A380

Landing Score 80.83 %

Landing Summary

The Airbus A380 has successfully landed at EGLL London Heathrow Airport, but the landing was not without its issues. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the west, heading 90.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,202 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 09L, which has a length of 3,591 meters.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was excessively high at 182 knots. This indicates that the aircraft may have been descending too quickly or that the pilots may have been unable to slow the aircraft down sufficiently before touchdown. The touchdown point was 824 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which suggests that the aircraft may have been slightly long on the landing.

The touchdown speed of 144 knots was a little fast, and the touchdown rate of -1,301 feet per minute was very heavy. This indicates that the aircraft may have been experiencing a high rate of descent, which could be due to a variety of factors including the aircraft's weight, the air density, and the pilots' control inputs. The runway touchdown position was also misaligned by 7.9 meters from the centerline, which could be due to a combination of factors including wind, pilot error, or a malfunctioning autopilot system.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 8°C and a wind speed of 9 knots from 160°. The crosswind component was 8 knots, while the headwind component was 3 knots. Despite these conditions, the pilots were able to maintain a relatively good alignment during the rollout, with the runway rollout alignment being very good.

The total landing distance of 2,228 meters was 62% of the runway length, which is a relatively high percentage. This suggests that the aircraft may have been experiencing a high rate of descent or that the pilots may have been unable to slow the aircraft down sufficiently before touchdown. Overall, while the landing was not perfect, the pilots were able to bring the aircraft safely to the ground, and the aircraft's systems performed well during the landing.
