The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,100 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 492 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 9 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, an RJ85, then departed from runway 17R at Lyon Saint-Exupéry Airport (LFLL). The takeoff distance was 937 meters, which accounted for 23% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 132 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 18 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 4 knots at 122 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 3 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, which started overhead the airport at Colombier-Saugnieu. The climb took 18 minutes and covered a distance of 90 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from 1,788 feet above sea level to 28,847 feet above sea level, an increase of 27,059 feet.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted 13 minutes and covered a distance of 85 nautical miles. This phase began 1 mile south east of Pulverieres. The aircraft then started its enroute descent, which began overhead Oradour-sur-Vayres. The descent took 18 minutes and covered a distance of 82 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from 28,156 feet above sea level to 1,411 feet above sea level, a decrease of 26,745 feet.
The final approach to runway 23 at Bordeaux-Mérignac Airport (LFBD) was made from the north east, with a heading of 225.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,244 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown point 62 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 106 knots, which was good, and the touchdown rate was excellent at -91 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 17 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 4 knots at 140 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 0 knots. The total landing distance was 1,034 meters, which accounted for 33% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 4 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 267 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 62 minutes. The aircraft used 1,949 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The aircraft, identified as an RJ85, successfully landed at LFBD Bordeaux-Mérignac Airport with a score of 100.0%. The final approach to runway 23 was initiated from the north east, with a heading of 225.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,244 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft's approach and landing were executed flawlessly, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 119 knots. The touchdown point was 62 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation but still within acceptable limits. The touchdown speed of 106 knots was also good, indicating that the aircraft was properly configured for landing.
One of the standout aspects of this landing was the excellent touchdown rate of -91 feet per minute (fpm). This is a very low rate, indicating that the aircraft touched down with minimal impact and was well-controlled throughout the landing process. The runway touchdown alignment was also very good, suggesting that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway and was on course for a smooth landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 17°C and a wind speed of 4 knots from 140°. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 0 knots, which did not pose any significant challenges for the aircraft.
The total landing distance of 1,034 meters was 33% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This suggests that the aircraft was able to land quickly and efficiently, with minimal use of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain its alignment with the runway even after touchdown.
Overall, this landing was a textbook example of a well-executed approach and landing, with the aircraft performing flawlessly in a variety of conditions. The pilot's skills and experience were evident throughout the landing process, and the aircraft's performance was impressive.
