Landing on runway 18R at KDFW Dallas Fort Worth International Airport in the Airbus A380

Landing Score 93.25 %

Landing Summary

The Airbus A380 successfully landed at KDFW Dallas Fort Worth International Airport on runway 18R, achieving a score of 93.2%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north, heading 180.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,303 feet above ground level (agl). The landing was executed on a runway with a length of 4,095 meters.

The threshold height was reported as good, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 132 knots. This may indicate a slight deviation from the optimal landing speed, but it did not appear to have a significant impact on the overall landing performance. The touchdown distance was good at 407 meters, indicating that the aircraft was able to touch down within a reasonable distance from the threshold.

However, the touchdown speed of 128 knots was a little fast, which may have contributed to a firm touchdown rate of -305 feet per minute (fpm). A firm touchdown rate can be a concern, as it may indicate that the aircraft is touching down with too much energy, which can lead to a longer rollout distance and increased wear on the landing gear.

The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 8.3 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the aircraft's approach path or a miscalculation of the runway alignment. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 16°C and winds of 23 knots at 330°. The crosswind component was 12 knots, while the tailwind component was 20 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,920 meters, which is 47% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft was able to touch down and stop within a reasonable distance from the threshold. However, the runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 15.5 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the aircraft's rollout path or a miscalculation of the runway alignment.

Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some minor deviations from the optimal landing performance. The aircraft's score of 93.2% indicates that it was able to execute a safe and efficient landing, but there is room for improvement in terms of touchdown speed and runway alignment.
