Landing on runway 25R at OPKC Jinnah International Airport in the Airbus A320

Landing Score 74.13 %

Landing Summary

The Airbus A320 aircraft has successfully landed at OPKC Jinnah International Airport, but the landing was not without its challenges. The final approach to runway 25R was initiated from the east, with the aircraft heading 254.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,277 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's speed and altitude were well within the acceptable parameters for a safe landing.

However, upon closer inspection, it becomes apparent that the aircraft's landing performance was not optimal. The threshold height at 81 feet agl was significantly above the target, indicating that the aircraft was not properly configured for landing. Furthermore, the threshold speed of 151 kt was well above the target, suggesting that the aircraft was not slowed down sufficiently before touching down on the runway.

The touchdown point was 115 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a significant deviation from the intended landing spot. The touchdown speed of 141 kt was also fast, and the touchdown rate of -653 feet per minute (fpm) was heavy, indicating that the aircraft was experiencing a high rate of descent upon touchdown. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 8.7 meters from the centerline, which could have contributed to the aircraft's deviation from the intended landing spot.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were also noteworthy. The temperature was a scorching 39°C, and the wind was blowing at 16 kt from 240°. The crosswind component was relatively light at 4 kt, but the headwind component was significant at 15 kt. These weather conditions may have contributed to the aircraft's difficulties during landing.

The total landing distance of 2,058 meters was 65% of the runway length, which is within the acceptable parameters for a safe landing. However, the runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 22.8 meters from the centerline, which could have contributed to the aircraft's deviation from the intended landing spot.

Overall, while the Airbus A320 aircraft successfully landed at OPKC Jinnah International Airport, the landing performance was not optimal due to a combination of factors, including a high threshold speed, a fast touchdown speed, and a heavy touchdown rate. The aircraft's deviation from the intended landing spot and the misaligned runway rollout alignment also suggest that the pilots may have encountered some difficulties during the landing.
