Flight narrative

The flight began with the aircraft, an Airbus A321, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at ZULS Lhasa Gonggar Airport. This process took approximately 4 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 09, and the takeoff distance was 2,565 meters, which is 64% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 145 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of -2°C, with no wind at 100 degrees. The aircraft began its enroute climb 2 miles east of ZULS Lhasa Gonggar Airport, Shannan (Gonggar), in the Tibet Autonomous Region, China. The climb started from an altitude of 12,720 feet above sea level and reached a maximum altitude of 34,173 feet above sea level, an increase of 21,453 feet in 20 minutes, covering a distance of 80 nautical miles.

The enroute level cruise began 5 miles east of ZURK Shigatse Peace, Shigatse, in the Tibet Autonomous Region, China, and lasted for 34 minutes, covering a distance of 202 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its enroute descent 8 miles south of VNJI Jiri Airport, Jiri, in the Bagmati Province, Nepal.

Landing on runway 02 at VNKT Tribhuvan International Airport in the Airbus A321neo
Landing Score 96.84 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 successfully landed at VNKT Tribhuvan International Airport, achieving a high score of 96.8%. The aircraft approached the runway from the south, heading 24.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,101 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with precision, and the aircraft landed safely on runway 02, which has a length of 2,933 meters.

The threshold height was good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct altitude as it approached the runway. The threshold speed of 143 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilot's ability to control the aircraft's speed during the landing phase. The touchdown point was 434 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is slightly further than ideal but still within a safe margin.

The touchdown speed of 136 knots was good, and the touchdown rate of -9 feet per minute (fpm) was perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.2 meters from the centerline, which may require some adjustments to the pilot's technique.

The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 18°C and a wind speed of 2 knots at 149°. The crosswind and tailwind components were minimal, at 1 knot each, which reduced the risk of the aircraft being blown off course during the landing.

The total landing distance of 1,602 meters was 55% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and brought it to a stop safely.

Overall, the landing was executed with precision and control, and the pilot's skills and experience were evident throughout the process. The high score of 96.8% reflects the success of the landing and the pilot's ability to navigate the aircraft safely and efficiently.
