Landing on runway 01 at KDCA Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport in the Airbus A319

Landing Score 99.83 %

Landing Summary

The Airbus A319 received a final score of 99.8 % on a final approach to runway 01 at KDCA Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport from the south, flying a heading of 355.0 ° at 4 nm and 1,270 ft agl. The approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits.

At the threshold the runway length was 7,173 ft and the threshold height was good. The threshold speed was well above target at 137 kt.

Touchdown occurred 1,543 ft down the runway, a good distance, with a touchdown speed of 131 kt that was a little fast. The touchdown rate was smooth at minus 111 fpm and runway touchdown alignment was perfect.

The total landing distance was 3,547 ft, representing 49 % of the runway, and runway rollout alignment was perfect. Local weather was 80 °F with wind 2 kt at 43 °, crosswind 2 kt and headwind 2 kt.

Reduce the threshold and touchdown speeds toward the target values to tighten the margin while preserving the excellent alignment and smooth rate already demonstrated. Maintaining the current approach stability will allow the speed adjustments to be integrated without affecting the high overall score.
