Landing on runway 27 at LGIR Heraklion International Nikos Kazantzakis Airport in the Airbus A319

Landing Score 93.95 %

Landing Summary

The Airbus A319 successfully landed at LGIR Heraklion International Nikos Kazantzakis Airport, achieving a score of 94.0%. The aircraft approached the runway from the east, heading 275.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,488 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was made to runway 27, which has a length of 2,233 meters.

The threshold height was good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct altitude as it approached the runway. The threshold speed of 127 knots was also satisfactory, demonstrating that the pilots had maintained control and were on track for a smooth landing. However, the touchdown point was 48 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which may indicate a slight deviation from the intended landing path.

The touchdown speed of 124 knots was a little fast, suggesting that the pilots may have been able to maintain a more controlled descent. The touchdown rate of -472 feet per minute (fpm) was hard, which could have resulted in a bumpy ride for passengers. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.3 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach path.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 28°C and a wind speed of 11 knots from 310°. The crosswind component was 6 knots, while the headwind component was 9 knots. These conditions may have presented some challenges for the pilots, but they were able to maintain control and execute a safe landing.

The total landing distance of 1,039 meters was 47% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This suggests that the pilots were able to maintain a high level of control and precision during the landing. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain its direction and speed after touchdown, and that the pilots were able to bring the aircraft to a stop safely and efficiently. Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some areas for improvement, such as maintaining a more controlled descent and aligning the aircraft with the centerline of the runway.
