The flight began with the Airbus A320 taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Brussels Airport, taking 7 minutes and covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. Departure roll occurred on runway 25R, with a takeoff distance of 1,366 meters, which accounted for 44% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 152 knots.

As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions of 7°C temperature and a wind speed of 8 knots at 260 degrees. The crosswind component was 2 knots, while the headwind component was 7 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting overhead the town of Diegem in Flanders, Belgium. The climb took 22 minutes, during which the aircraft ascended from 1,128 feet above sea level to 36,770 feet, an increase of 35,643 feet.

Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, starting 10 miles east of Great Wakering in Essex, England. This phase of the flight lasted 20 minutes and covered a distance of 145 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, starting 1 mile south of Wath upon Dearne in Rotherham, England. The descent took 18 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 36,769 feet to 3,801 feet, a decrease of 32,968 feet.

The aircraft then entered another level cruise, this time starting overhead Carnwath in South Lanarkshire, Scotland. This phase of the flight lasted only 2 minutes and covered a distance of 9 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting overhead Longridge in West Lothian, Scotland. The descent took 3 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 3,750 feet to 1,404 feet, a decrease of 2,345 feet.

The final approach to runway 06 at Edinburgh Airport was made from the southwest, with the aircraft heading 59.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,285 feet above ground level. The landing occurred on a runway length of 2,132 meters, with the threshold height at 68 feet above ground level being above the target. The threshold speed was also well above the target at 141 knots.

The touchdown point was 357 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with the touchdown speed at 131 knots being a little fast. The touchdown rate was hard at -461 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 19.8 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 4°C temperature and a wind speed of 14 knots at 80 degrees, with a crosswind component of 5 knots and a headwind component of 13 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,553 meters, which accounted for 73% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 19.4 meters from the centerline. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, taking 3 minutes and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 456 nautical miles, taking 77 minutes, and the aircraft used 3,201 kilograms of fuel.

Landing on runway 06 at EGPH Edinburgh Airport in the Airbus A320

Landing Score 80.36 %

Landing Summary

The Airbus A320 aircraft has successfully landed at Edinburgh Airport, but with some notable deviations from the ideal landing parameters. The final approach was initiated from the southwest, heading 59.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,285 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 06, which has a length of 2,132 meters.

However, there were some discrepancies in the landing parameters. The threshold height at 68 feet agl was above the target, indicating that the aircraft was slightly higher than desired when reaching the runway threshold. Moreover, the threshold speed was well above the target at 141 knots, suggesting that the aircraft was traveling at a higher speed than necessary when reaching the runway threshold.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was 131 knots, which was a little fast, and the touchdown rate was hard at -461 feet per minute (fpm). This indicates that the aircraft touched down with a significant amount of force, which could potentially lead to a bumpy ride for passengers. Furthermore, the touchdown point was 357 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a significant deviation from the ideal landing spot.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 4°C and a wind speed of 14 knots at 80°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 13 knots. These conditions may have contributed to the deviations in the landing parameters.

The total landing distance was 1,553 meters, which is 73% of the runway length. This indicates that the aircraft was able to stop within a reasonable distance, but the runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 19.4 meters from the centerline. This suggests that the aircraft may have drifted off the centerline during the rollout phase, which could be a concern for safety.

Overall, while the Airbus A320 aircraft was able to land safely at Edinburgh Airport, there were some notable deviations from the ideal landing parameters. These deviations may be attributed to a combination of factors, including the weather conditions and the pilot's performance.
