Top opportunity

Shorten the long landing

Arrival Touchdown

Ground effect becomes significant below about one wingspan of height. A Cessna 172, with a 36 ft span, enters ground effect at flare height - the float it feels in the hold-off is ground effect arriving on cue. An A320, with a span around 117 ft, has been in ground effect since before the threshold and there is no sudden cushion to feel, only a gradual reduction in induced drag that lengthens any float you allow.

Flight narrative

This flight began with a taxiing period from the parking area to the runway, which took 10 minutes and covered a distance of 4 nautical miles. The aircraft, an Embraer E195, then departed from runway 31R at Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport. The takeoff distance was 711 meters, which accounted for 19% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 137 knots, and the aircraft lifted off the ground at this speed.

The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 4 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 19 knots from a direction of 310 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 19 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute level cruise, which started 2 miles east of Kobanya, a suburb of Budapest, Hungary. This cruise phase lasted for 3 minutes and covered a distance of 7 nautical miles.

As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its final approach to landing. This involved descending from an altitude of 546 feet above ground level (agl) to 1 nautical mile from the landing site, also at an altitude of 546 ft agl. The aircraft then continued its descent, reducing its altitude from 118 ft agl to 0 ft agl in just 2 seconds. This rapid descent was followed by the aircraft touching down on the ground, which occurred 1 mile south west of Budapest.

The touchdown speed was excessively fast at 181 knots, and the touchdown rate was very heavy at -1,721 feet per minute (fpm). However, the touchdown distance was good, measuring 321 meters. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 2 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 18 knots from a direction of 311 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 18 knots and a tailwind of 5 knots.

In total, the flight covered a distance of 15 nautical miles and lasted for 8 minutes. The aircraft used 327 kilograms of fuel during this time.

Landing Summary

The aircraft in question, an E195, has been involved in a landing incident at Budapest, Hungary. The final approach to landing was conducted on ground 1 mile southwest of the airport, with the aircraft descending from an altitude of 546 feet above ground level (agl) to 118 feet agl before making a touchdown.

The descent from 118 feet agl to 0 feet agl was particularly steep, with a decrease of 118 feet in just 2 seconds. This indicates a very aggressive descent profile, which may have contributed to the subsequent issues with the landing. The aircraft touched down at a speed of 181 knots, which is considered excessively fast for a safe landing. This excessive speed likely resulted in a very heavy touchdown rate of -1,721 feet per minute (fpm), which is significantly higher than the recommended rate.

Despite the issues with the landing, the touchdown distance was reported to be good, measuring 321 meters. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 2 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 18 knots from a direction of 311 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind component of 18 knots and a tailwind component of 5 knots, which may have contributed to the difficulties experienced during the landing.

Overall, the landing incident involving the E195 at Budapest highlights the importance of proper descent profiles, touchdown speeds, and landing techniques to ensure safe and controlled landings. The excessive speed and heavy touchdown rate in this incident suggest that the pilots may have deviated from standard procedures, leading to a potentially hazardous situation.
