Landing on runway 34 at YMML Melbourne International Airport in the British Aerospace 146-200

Landing Score 96.88 %

Landing Summary

The British Aerospace 146-200 aircraft successfully landed at Melbourne International Airport (YMML) on runway 34, achieving a high score of 96.9%. The final approach was conducted from the south, heading 351.0° at 2 nautical miles and 712 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach was characterized by a good threshold speed of 126 knots, which is within the acceptable range for a safe landing.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was 118 knots, which is slightly below the recommended threshold speed but still considered good. The touchdown point was 227 meters beyond the touchdown zone, indicating a slight overrun but not excessive. The touchdown rate of -37 feet per minute (fpm) was perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 23°C and a wind speed of 16 knots at 10°. The crosswind component was minimal at 5 knots, while the headwind component was 15 knots, which helped to reduce the aircraft's ground speed and improve the landing performance.

The total landing distance of 1,590 meters was 43% 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 aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively to bring the aircraft to a stop.
