This flight was operated by an Airbus A320 aircraft. The pre-flight taxiing from the parking area to the runway took 12 minutes, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles (nm). The departure roll commenced on runway 17R at the Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport (SCEL) in Santiago, Chile.
As the aircraft took off, it utilized a significant portion of the runway, covering 1,996 meters (or 52% of the runway) before lifting off the ground. The liftoff speed reached 167 knots (kt). The local weather conditions at that time were characterized by a temperature of 14°C, a moderate wind of 11 kt blowing from a direction of 180°, resulting in a headwind of the same magnitude.
Following a period of level flight, the climb phase of the flight began as the aircraft ascended from 2,555 feet (ft) above sea level (asl) to 35,785 ft asl. This increase in altitude of 33,230 ft took place over an area spanning 116 nm, in approximately 22 minutes.
Subsequently, the aircraft transitioned into a cruise phase of flight, which lasted for 115 minutes while covering a distance of 838 nm. This level flight was maintained at an altitude above 24 miles (or approximately 38.4 nm) north of the Los Pelambres Airport (SCNK) in the Cuncumen region of Coquimbo, Chile.
In preparation for landing, the aircraft's descent phase began 14 miles north of Curahuara de Carangas, a town located in the Departamento de La Paz, Bolivia. During this descent, the aircraft decreased in altitude from 36,889 ft asl to 14,291 ft asl, a total drop of 22,598 ft in approximately 12 minutes, while covering a distance of 68 nm.
Upon entering the final approach, the aircraft targeted runway 10 at the El Alto International Airport (SLLP) for landing. The aircraft flew a heading of 95.0° at an altitude of 1,077 ft above ground level (agl), with the runway lying 3 nm ahead.
At the time of landing, the runway length was 3,996 meters, whereas the threshold height was at 74 ft agl, well above the target. Moreover, the threshold speed was slightly above the target, reaching 142 kt. During the landing, the aircraft touched down beyond the intended touchdown zone at a speed of 132 kt, which was slightly high.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's rate of descent was perfect at 180 feet per minute (fpm), whereas the runway touchdown location deviated by 14.0 meters from the centerline. Furthermore, local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 17°C, a wind of 11 kt blowing from a direction of 219°, resulting in a crosswind of 8 kt and a tailwind of 7 kt.
The total landing distance covered by the aircraft on runway 10 at SLLP was 2,965 meters, accounting for 74% of runway length. However, the runway rollout alignment misaligned with the centerline by 15.6 meters.
Following the conclusion of the landing, the taxiing phase from the runway to the parking area commenced, covering a distance of less than 1 nm in just 1 minute.
In conclusion, the total flight distance covered a distance of 1,032 nm and was completed in 166 minutes, utilizing 6,436 kilograms of fuel throughout the journey.

The recent Airbus A320 landing at SLLP El Alto International Airport, a significant commercial airport in South America, was evaluated and found to have achieved an overall performance of 80.5%, denoting a good but not exceptional landing.
The final approach to runway 10 from the west, a standard procedure for the pilot, occurred at a height of 1,077 feet above ground level (agl) and 3 nautical miles (nm) from the threshold. The aircraft was oriented in the correct direction, heading 95.0 degrees, as required for a safe landing. Upon closer inspection, it was observed that the pilot had landed the aircraft approximately 680 meters beyond the touchdown zone, exceeding the standard threshold by an acceptable margin.
Upon touching down, the pilot's speed was slightly above the target threshold velocity, clocking at 142 knots. However, the speed at the moment of touchdown was recorded at a slightly lower speed of 132 knots, which is still within an acceptable margin, albeit marginally exceeding ideal standards. The rate of descent, on the other hand, was perfectly executed at 180 feet per minute, ensuring a smooth and controlled descent that was conducive to a safe landing.
An analysis of the local weather conditions, including the moderate temperature of 17 degrees Celsius and winds blowing at 11 knots, revealed that both crosswind and tailwind elements were present but did not pose considerable challenges to the landing process.
While the landing performance was satisfactory, there were a couple of areas that fell slightly short of perfection. Firstly, the landing's alignment with the runway's centerline during rollout was somewhat off-target, with a discrepancy of approximately 15.6 meters. However, it should be noted that such deviations can often be attributed to a range of factors including aircraft responsiveness, pilot experience, and landing conditions.
In conclusion, the Airbus A320's landing operation at SLLP El Alto International Airport had certain areas where it excelled while also falling short in a few areas. With continued practice and improvement, these marginal inefficiencies are likely to be addressed, leading to even better performance in the future.
