Landing Score 93.13 %
Landing Summary

The approach to runway 18 at SBRF Recife/Guararapes - Gilberto Freyre International Airport from the north was executed with a heading of 162.0° at 4 nm and 1,416 ft above ground level. The aircraft maintained a steady descent, but unfortunately, the threshold height at 61 ft agl was above the target, indicating a slightly higher-than-desired approach path angle. The threshold speed of 139 kt was also slightly above the target, suggesting a slightly steeper-than-optimal approach.

As the aircraft touched down 361 m beyond the touchdown zone, the touchdown speed of 133 kt was a little fast, which may have contributed to the slightly misaligned runway touchdown position, 4.7 m off centreline. The touchdown rate of -273 fpm was fair, indicating a relatively smooth touchdown. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 30 °C and a 13 kt headwind at 150°, may have played a role in the slightly higher-than-target threshold speed and touchdown speed.

The total landing distance of 1,596 m, accounting for 53% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. Notably, the runway rollout alignment was very good, demonstrating excellent control and coordination during the critical phase of the landing. Overall, the landing performance scored 88.3%, reflecting a solid but not exceptional execution of the landing.
