The Airbus A320 successfully landed at VNKT Tribhuvan International Airport, achieving an overall score of 86.1%. The aircraft approached the runway from the south, heading 24.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,101 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was made to runway 02, which has a length of 2,933 meters.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 192 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating a slight deviation from the intended touchdown point. The touchdown speed of 133 knots was slightly above the target speed, suggesting that the pilots may have been able to make adjustments to reduce the speed during the approach. However, the touchdown rate of -178 feet per minute (fpm) was considered good, indicating a controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 8°C and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 100°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was negligible at 0 knots. These conditions were favorable for the landing, allowing the pilots to maintain a stable approach and touchdown.
The runway touchdown alignment was reported to be perfect, indicating that the aircraft was aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown.
