The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 7,028 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,202 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 7 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, an Airbus A319, then departed from runway 26L at KGRR Gerald R. Ford International Airport. The takeoff distance was 5,776 feet, which accounted for 58% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 151 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 70°F and winds of 2 knots at 60°. The crosswind was 1 knot, while the tailwind was 2 knots. As the aircraft took off, it began its enroute climb, which started 1 mile north of the 14MI East-West Paris Airport in Caledonia, Michigan. The climb took 19 minutes and covered a distance of 119 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from 1,787 feet above sea level to 37,309 feet above sea level, an increase of 35,522 feet.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, which started 2 miles south of Grosse Pointe Park, Michigan. This phase of the flight lasted 34 minutes and covered a distance of 277 nautical miles. The enroute descent began 4 miles southeast of the PA45 Logue Airport in Bodines, Pennsylvania. The descent took 25 minutes and covered a distance of 129 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from 37,395 feet above sea level to 1,220 feet above sea level, a decrease of 36,175 feet.
The final approach to runway 22L at KEWR Newark Liberty International Airport was made from the northeast, with a heading of 206.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,197 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 22L was successful, with a touchdown distance of 1,209 feet and a touchdown speed of 126 knots, which was slightly fast. However, the touchdown rate was smooth at -137 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 75°F and winds of 2 knots at 70°. The crosswind was 2 knots, while the tailwind was 2 knots. The total landing distance was 4,431 feet, which accounted for 63% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 4 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
In total, the flight covered a distance of 534 nautical miles and took 91 minutes to complete. The aircraft used 7,613 pounds of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A319 successfully landed on runway 22L at KEWR Newark Liberty International Airport, achieving a score of 99.9%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north east, heading 206.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,197 feet above ground level (agl).
The final approach was executed smoothly, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 126 knots, which was slightly above the recommended threshold speed of 128 knots. However, the touchdown distance of 1,209 feet was within the acceptable range, indicating a well-executed landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 75°F and a gentle wind of 2 knots from a direction of 70°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and tailwind component, making the landing even more challenging and impressive.
The aircraft's touchdown rate was smooth, at -137 feet per minute (fpm), which is a testament to the pilot's skill and experience. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown.
The total landing distance of 4,431 feet was 63% of the runway length, which is a respectable figure considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was a success, with the aircraft touching down smoothly and coming to a stop within a reasonable distance. The pilot's skill and experience were evident throughout the landing, and the aircraft's performance was impressive given the favorable weather conditions.
