The flight in question was operated by an Airbus A319 aircraft. The enroute climb phase began 6 miles east of Ballywalter, located in the Ards and North Down region of Northern Ireland. During this phase, the aircraft ascended from an initial altitude of 10,105 feet above sea level to 6,932 feet above sea level, resulting in an increase of 3,173 feet in just 2 minutes. The climb covered a distance of 7 nautical miles.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered the enroute descent phase, which started overhead Ballywalter. The descent from 6,906 feet above sea level to 2,711 feet above sea level resulted in a decrease of 4,196 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 15 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise phase began 8 miles northeast of Donaghadee, also located in the Ards and North Down region of Northern Ireland. This phase lasted for 9 minutes and covered a distance of 28 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 25 at Belfast International Airport (EGAA) was initiated from the northeast, with the aircraft heading 245.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,343 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 25 was successful, with a threshold height that was considered good. The threshold speed was also good at 128 knots.
However, the touchdown point was 253 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 120 knots, which was considered good. The touchdown rate was fair at -242 feet per minute. Notably, the runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 15.6 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing included a temperature of 10 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 14 knots from 170 degrees. The crosswind was 14 knots, while the headwind was 4 knots. The total landing distance was 66,009 meters, which accounted for 2,386 percent of the runway length.
Following the landing, the aircraft underwent a prolonged rollout, with the runway rollout alignment being excessively misaligned by 6,076.6 meters from the centerline. The taxiing to the parking area from the runway took 6 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
In total, the flight distance was 89 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 34 minutes. The aircraft used 1,019 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

The Airbus A319 aircraft successfully landed at EGAA Belfast International Airport, but with some notable deviations from optimal landing procedures. The final approach was initiated from the north east, heading 245.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,343 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 25, which has a length of 2,766 meters.
The threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed of 128 knots was also within acceptable limits. However, the touchdown point was 253 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating a slight over-run. The touchdown speed of 120 knots was good, but the touchdown rate of -242 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, suggesting that the aircraft may have touched down slightly harder than intended.
One of the most significant issues with this landing was the runway touchdown position, which was significantly misaligned by 15.6 meters from the centerline. This suggests that the aircraft may have been slightly off-course during the final approach, or that the pilots may have made an error in aligning the aircraft with the runway.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 10°C and a wind speed of 14 knots from 170°. This resulted in a crosswind of 14 knots and a headwind of 4 knots. The total landing distance was 66,009 meters, which is 2,386% of the runway length. This is a relatively long landing distance, suggesting that the aircraft may have taken a longer than usual time to come to a stop.
The runway rollout alignment was also excessively misaligned by 6,076.6 meters from the centerline, indicating that the aircraft may have continued to drift off-course even after touchdown. This could be due to a variety of factors, including the pilots' response to the crosswind or the aircraft's handling characteristics.
Overall, while the Airbus A319 aircraft successfully landed at EGAA Belfast International Airport, there were several areas for improvement in terms of alignment and touchdown performance.
