Taxiing from the parking area to the runway at KORD Chicago O'Hare International Airport took a considerable 89 minutes, covering a distance of 55 nautical miles. The aircraft eventually departed from runway 10L, with a takeoff distance of 1,849 meters, utilizing 47% of the available runway. The liftoff speed was achieved at 194 knots, as the aircraft lifted off into the local weather conditions, with a temperature of 12 °C and winds blowing at 23 knots from a direction of 39°. The crosswind component was 17 knots, while the headwind component was 15 knots.

As the aircraft climbed away from KORD, it began its enroute climb approximately 1 mile northwest of Schiller Park, Illinois. The climb phase saw the aircraft ascend from 1,750 feet above sea level to 10,109 feet, an increase of 8,359 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 9 nautical miles. The enroute descent phase started overhead Lincoln Square, Illinois, where the aircraft descended from 10,135 feet to 1,587 feet, a decrease of 8,549 feet in 5 minutes, covering 17 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 28L at KORD was initiated from the east, with the aircraft heading 270.0° at 1 nautical mile and 886 feet above ground level.

The landing on runway 28L at KORD was not without its challenges, as the threshold height was excessively over target, and the threshold speed was too high at 142 knots. The touchdown point was 372 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 125 knots, which was faster than desired. The touchdown rate was also hard at -427 feet per minute. Furthermore, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 9.2 meters from the centerline. The total landing distance was 1,429 meters, accounting for 63% of the available runway. The runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 17.1 meters from the centerline. The total flight distance was 85 nautical miles, taking 14 minutes to complete, and the aircraft used 2,097 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 28L at KORD Chicago O'Hare International Airport in the Airbus A320

Landing Score 73.75 %

Landing Summary

The aircraft touched down on runway 28L at KORD Chicago O'Hare International Airport, a 2,274-meter-long runway, after a final approach from the east. The approach quality was compromised by an excessively high threshold height of 104 feet above ground level, exceeding the target by a significant margin. This was accompanied by a threshold speed of 142 knots, which was also above the desired level.

The touchdown characteristics were less than ideal, with the aircraft touching down 372 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone. The touchdown speed of 125 knots was faster than the recommended rate, and the touchdown rate of -427 feet per minute was hard, indicating a potential for a bumpy ride. Furthermore, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 9.2 meters from the centerline, which could have contributed to the overall performance issues. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 8 degrees Celsius and a crosswind of 10 knots, may have also played a role in the aircraft's performance.

The total landing distance of 1,429 meters was 63% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. However, the rollout alignment was also compromised, with the aircraft deviating by 17.1 meters from the centerline. Overall, the landing performance scored 73.8%, reflecting the various issues encountered during the touchdown and rollout phases.
