Local weather at the time of departure was 13°C with a wind of 5 knots coming from 219°, resulting in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 5 knots.

The enroute climb began over Düsseldorf, climbing from 1,209 feet above sea level to 31,500 feet above sea level, covering a distance of 76 nautical miles in 15 minutes. The level cruise phase started near Harderwijk in the Netherlands and lasted 23 minutes, covering 156 nm. The subsequent descent began 12 miles southeast of Walton-on-the-Naze in England, descending from 31,828 ft asl to 8,322 ft asl over a distance of 9 nm in 10 minutes.

Another climb phase started 12 miles southeast of Clacton-on-Sea, ascending from 8,489 ft to 9,208 ft over a distance of 9 nm in 2 minutes. A brief level cruise then took place north of Westgate on Sea, covering 7 nm in 2 minutes. The final descent phase began 2 miles southwest of Birchington-on-Sea, descending from 9,214 ft to 6,123 ft over 15 nm in 4 minutes.

The next level cruise segment began 4 miles north of Leysdown-on-Sea and lasted 2 minutes, covering 7 nm. The final descent phase started 2 miles north of Sheerness, descending from 5,471 ft to 1,814 ft over 22 nm in 7 minutes. The landing occurred on runway 27 at EGLC London City Airport, with a touchdown just 215 meters from the threshold at a speed of 140 knots and a vertical speed indicator reading of -634 ft/m.

The total landing distance covered was 721 meters, which constituted 54% of the runway length. Following the landing, a 3-minute taxi from the runway to the parking area was completed, covering less than 1 nm. The total flight distance for this journey was 309 nm, utilizing 3,044 kg of fuel throughout the 3-hour and 20-minute flight.

Landing Summary

First off, let's start with what went well during the landing. The Landing Phase had a good threshold height, which means that the aircraft was at the correct altitude when approaching the runway threshold. This is important for a safe and smooth landing. Additionally, the touchdown distance inside the touchdown zone is a positive aspect, as it indicates that the aircraft touched down where it was supposed to on the runway.

However, there are several areas that need improvement in order to increase the landing score. The Approach Phase had a poor descent path above the glideslope limit, which means that the aircraft was coming in too high during the approach. This can lead to a longer landing distance and potentially a harder touchdown.

Moving onto the Landing Phase, the landing flare was identified as very poor. The landing flare is the transition from descending to level flight just before touchdown, and it is crucial for a smooth landing. Improving the landing flare will result in a softer touchdown and better overall handling of the aircraft.

Next, in the Touchdown Phase, the touchdown rate was very heavy and the speed was slightly above target. A heavy touchdown can put strain on the landing gear and potentially cause damage, so it is important to aim for a smoother touchdown. Adjusting the speed to be within the target range will help achieve a better landing score.

Furthermore, the runway touchdown position being 3.6 meters from the centerline is something that should be addressed. Ensuring that the aircraft lands in the correct position on the runway helps with overall safety and efficiency of operations.

Finally, in the Rollout Phase, it was noted that the runway alignment was 5.3 meters from the centerline. Maintaining runway alignment is important for safe taxiing and overall airport operations.

Overall, while there were some positive aspects of the landing, there are several areas that need improvement in order to increase the landing score. By focusing on the descent path, landing flare, touchdown rate, speed, touchdown position, and runway alignment, the aircraft can achieve a higher landing score and ensure a safer and more efficient landing process. Keep working on these areas and you'll see improvement in no time!
