Departure Roll

The rudder input is a changing profile through the roll rather than one that is held. So the demand on your right foot starts large at power application, eases as speed builds and the rudder gains authority, then jumps again at rotation.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 20L at Santos Dumont Airport in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The Airbus A320 took off with a takeoff distance of 666 meters, which accounted for 51% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 145 knots, and the aircraft quickly gained altitude.

As the aircraft climbed, it started to ascend from an initial altitude of 842 feet above sea level to 1,465 feet, a total increase of 623 feet in less than a minute. This climb phase covered a distance of less than a nautical mile. The enroute level cruise phase began shortly after, lasting for 3 minutes and covering a distance of 3 nautical miles. This phase took place approximately 1 mile south east of the airport.

The final approach to runway 20L at Santos Dumont Airport was initiated from the north, with the aircraft heading at 178.0 degrees and at an altitude of 436 feet above ground level, approximately 1 nautical mile from the runway. The landing was smooth, with a threshold speed of 118 knots and a touchdown distance of 303 meters, which was 60% of the runway length. However, the touchdown speed of 112 knots was slightly faster than ideal.

The touchdown rate was firm at -382 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions during the landing were characterized by a temperature of 23 degrees Celsius, a wind speed of 11 knots from 130 degrees, with a crosswind of 8 knots and a headwind of 8 knots.

Following the landing, the aircraft underwent a smooth rollout, with very good alignment on the runway. The total landing distance was 784 meters, and the total flight distance was 6 nautical miles, which was completed in 4 minutes. The flight used a total of 199 kilograms of fuel.

Landing report
Landing on runway 20L at SBRJ Santos Dumont Airport in the Airbus A320neo
Landing Score 97.37 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A320 successfully landed at SBRJ Santos Dumont Airport, achieving a high score of 97.4%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north, heading 178.0° at 1 nautical mile and 436 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 23°C, with a moderate wind of 11 knots blowing from 130°. This resulted in a crosswind of 8 knots and a headwind of 8 knots, which the pilot effectively managed during the landing. The aircraft's speed and altitude were well-controlled, allowing for a smooth touchdown on runway 20L, which has a length of 1,317 meters.

The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed of 118 knots was also satisfactory. However, the touchdown speed of 112 knots was slightly faster than ideal, resulting in a firm touchdown rate of -382 feet per minute (fpm). Despite this, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft throughout the landing.

The total landing distance of 784 meters was 60% of the runway length, which is a reasonable distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, demonstrating the pilot's skill and control during the landing phase.

Overall, the Airbus A320's landing at SBRJ Santos Dumont Airport was a success, with the pilot executing a precise and controlled approach, despite the moderate wind conditions. The aircraft's performance and the pilot's skills were evident in the high score achieved, highlighting the importance of effective training and experience in aviation.
