Arrival
The flight in question was operated by an Airbus A319 aircraft. The enroute climb began 5 miles south of Ouagadougou, located in the Centre region of Burkina Faso. During the climb, the aircraft ascended from an initial altitude of 2,348 feet above sea level to 2,128 feet above sea level, resulting in a net increase of 220 feet in just 1 minute. This climb phase covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
As the aircraft approached the final approach to runway 04 at DFFD Ouagadougou Airport, it was heading in a south-westerly direction at an altitude of 1,120 feet above ground level. The aircraft was positioned 4 nautical miles from the runway and was on a heading of 33.0 degrees.
Upon landing on runway 04, the aircraft performed well in terms of threshold height and threshold speed, which was maintained at 115 knots. However, the touchdown speed of 113 knots was slightly faster than ideal. The touchdown rate was also heavy, with a rate of -677 feet per minute. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 4.8 meters.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 37 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 8 knots from a direction of 120 degrees. There was no headwind, but a crosswind of 8 knots was present. The total landing distance covered by the aircraft was 996 meters, which accounted for approximately 33% of the runway length.
During the rollout phase, the aircraft's alignment was misaligned from the centreline by 18.6 meters. The total flight distance was 5 nautical miles, which was completed in 3 minutes. The aircraft consumed 92 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

The Airbus A319 aircraft successfully landed at DFFD Ouagadougou Airport, achieving an overall score of 87.8%. The final approach to runway 04 was initiated from the southwest, heading 33.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,120 feet above ground level.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 113 kt, which was slightly above the recommended threshold speed of 115 kt. However, the touchdown distance of 233 meters was within the acceptable range. The touchdown rate of -677 fpm was considered heavy, indicating a steeper descent than desired.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 4.8 meters, which may have contributed to the subsequent rollout alignment issues. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 37°C and a wind speed of 8 kt from a direction of 120°, resulting in a crosswind component of 8 kt and a headwind component of 0 kt.
The total landing distance of 996 meters was 33% of the available runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was misaligned from the centreline by 18.6 meters, which may have been a result of the initial touchdown position being off-centre.
Overall, while the landing was successful, there were some areas for improvement, including a slightly fast touchdown speed and a heavy touchdown rate. Additionally, the runway touchdown position and rollout alignment issues may have been related to the initial approach and touchdown conditions.
