One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,485 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 429 m 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 5 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, an Airbus A321, then departed from runway 05 at EDHI Hamburg-Finkenwerder Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,280 meters, which accounted for 69% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 165 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 8 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 7 knots from a direction of 280 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 5 knots and a tailwind of 5 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile northeast of EDHI Hamburg-Finkenwerder Airport. The climb took 17 minutes and covered 81 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from 1,083 feet above sea level to 37,293 feet above sea level, an increase of 36,210 feet.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 2 miles west of EDYA Brockzetel Airfield Wiesmoor. This phase lasted for 427 minutes and covered 2,808 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 5 miles south of Mapleton in Maine, United States. The descent took 25 minutes and covered 115 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from 36,465 feet above sea level to 2,154 feet above sea level, a decrease of 34,311 feet.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 3 miles southwest of Otis in Maine, United States. This phase lasted for 5 minutes and covered 10 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 33 at KBGR Bangor International Airport, approaching from the southeast at a heading of 314.0 degrees and at an altitude of 4 nautical miles and 1,246 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 33 at KBGR Bangor International Airport was successful, with a touchdown distance of 428 meters and a touchdown speed of 118 knots. The touchdown rate was fair at -251 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 -6 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 13 knots from a direction of 260 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 11 knots and a headwind of 8 knots.
The aircraft then taxied to the parking from the runway, which took 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 3,022 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 486 minutes. The aircraft used 16,605 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A321 successfully landed at KBGR Bangor International Airport, achieving a high score of 98.0%. The aircraft approached the runway from the southeast, heading 314.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,246 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a precise final approach, taking into account the local weather conditions.
The temperature at the time of landing was -6°C, and the wind was blowing at 13 knots from a direction of 260°. This resulted in a crosswind of 11 knots and a headwind of 8 knots. Despite these conditions, the pilot managed to maintain a perfect runway touchdown alignment, ensuring a smooth and controlled landing.
The threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 121 knots, but the touchdown speed of 118 knots was still within acceptable limits. The touchdown distance of 428 meters was also good, indicating that the pilot had sufficient control over the aircraft during the landing phase. However, the touchdown rate of -251 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, suggesting that the pilot could have maintained a more gradual descent.
The total landing distance of 942 meters was 27% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. This indicates that the pilot had a good understanding of the aircraft's performance and was able to land it safely and efficiently. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, suggesting that the pilot had maintained control over the aircraft during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was a success, and the pilot's skills and experience were evident throughout the approach and landing phase. The high score of 98.0% reflects the pilot's ability to navigate challenging weather conditions and execute a precise and controlled landing.
