The flight began with the aircraft, an Airbus A320, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Robert Gabriel Mugabe International Airport. This process took 13 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The departure roll took place on runway 05, and the takeoff distance was 2,030 meters, which accounted for 43% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 159 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it encountered local weather conditions of a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 0 knots at 105 degrees. There was no crosswind or headwind to contend with. The enroute climb started over the Robert Gabriel Mugabe International Airport in Harare, Zimbabwe, and the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 1,815 meters above sea level to 10,366 meters above sea level, an increase of 8,551.2 meters, in 18 minutes and covering a distance of 122 nautical miles.
After reaching the desired altitude, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 9 minutes and covered a distance of 70 nautical miles. This phase began 14 miles northeast of the Gokwe Airport in the Midlands Province of Zimbabwe. The enroute descent phase started 26 miles west of the Sengwa Airport in the Midlands Province of Zimbabwe and lasted for 18 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 10,368 meters above sea level to 1,459 meters above sea level, a decrease of 8,908.3 meters, and covered a distance of 109 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 30 at Victoria Falls International Airport was made from the east, with the aircraft heading 290.0 degrees at an altitude of 391.9 meters above ground level and 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing took place on a runway with a length of 4,006 meters, and the threshold height was good. The threshold speed was also satisfactory at 139 knots. However, the touchdown point was 71 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was a little fast at 133 knots. The touchdown rate was smooth at -0.5 meters per second, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 19 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 0 knots at 101 degrees, with no crosswind or headwind. The total landing distance was 1,686 meters, which accounted for 42% of the runway. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 11.0 meters from the centerline. The taxiing to the parking area from the runway took only 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile.
In total, the flight covered a distance of 311 nautical miles and lasted for 60 minutes, using 2,297 kilograms of fuel.

The Airbus A320 successfully landed at FVFA Victoria Falls International Airport, achieving a score of 95.1%. The aircraft approached the runway from the east, heading 290.0° at an altitude of 391.9 meters above ground level (agl) and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The final approach was executed smoothly, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 139 knots.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 71 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is slightly beyond the ideal spot. However, the touchdown speed of 133 knots was a bit faster than desired, indicating that the pilots may have needed to apply more braking to slow down the aircraft. The touchdown rate was smooth, at -0.5 meters per second, which is a good indication of a controlled descent.
The local weather conditions were favorable for the landing, with a temperature of 19°C and a wind speed of 0 knots. The crosswind and headwind components were also negligible, making the landing even more straightforward. The total landing distance of 1,686 meters was 42% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight.
During the rollout, the aircraft's alignment was slightly off-centerline by 11.0 meters, which is a minor deviation from the ideal path. Despite this, the landing was still considered successful, and the pilots demonstrated good control and precision throughout the approach and landing phases. Overall, the landing was executed well, with only a few minor deviations from the ideal performance.
