Next time

Departure

Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.

What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 16 m off the runway centreline.

Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.

See Departure Roll

Arrival

Apply steady, continuous back pressure through the flare to arrest the sink smoothly and hold the normal profile, rather than letting it drift.

What happened: The flare did not hold its target profile, with the sink most arrested at 7.3 ft, and this flight then touched down at 344 fpm of sink - a firm arrival. An unsettled flare profile like this usually carries through to a firmer touchdown.

Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: a smooth, steadily decreasing sink rate through the flare to touchdown.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

Flight narrative

This flight was operated on an Airbus A320 aircraft taking off from Maltese International Airport, LMML, on runway 23. Before taking off, it took 6 minutes and covered 1 nautical mile to taxi from the parking to the runway. The takeoff distance covered 70% of the runway and was 1,659 meters. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 155 knots.

As the aircraft departed from LMML, it had to contend with local weather conditions, including a temperature of 30 °C and winds of 9 knots at 129 degrees. The crosswind speed was 8 knots, while the tailwind speed was 2 knots. With these conditions in mind, the aircraft began its enroute climb overhead the Maltese town of Qrendi, where it climbed from 417 feet above sea level to 36,599 feet above sea level in just 16 minutes, covering a distance of 93 nautical miles.

The enroute climb was followed by a level cruise that lasted 29 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 210 nautical miles, with the cruise starting 16 miles southwest of Realmonte in Sicily, Italy. Thereafter, the aircraft began its descent, which started 52 miles southwest of Ponza in Lazio, Italy. During this descent, it reduced its altitude from 36,207 feet above sea level to 9,298 feet in 17 minutes, covering a distance of 97 nautical miles.

Another level cruise ensued, this time lasting an incredibly short 2 minutes, during which the aircraft covered 2 nautical miles and started 2 miles northeast of Santa Marinella in Lazio, Italy. The descent phase continued, with the aircraft decreasing its altitude from 9,007 feet above sea level to 2,463 feet in 13 minutes, covering a distance of 14 nautical miles.

A short level cruise was initiated north of the Italian town of LIXU, followed by a final descent into LIRF, Rome–Fiumicino Leonardo da Vinci International Airport. Upon final approach, the aircraft descended onto the runway from the north, heading 164 degrees at an altitude of 1,333 feet above ground level and at a distance of 4 nautical miles.

The aircraft successfully landed on runway 16L at LIRF, a runway that is 3,894 meters long. The threshold height was within acceptable limits, with a threshold speed of 129 knots that was suitable for landing. The touchdown distance of 443 meters was also within acceptable limits, but the touchdown speed of 124 knots was higher than recommended. However, the touchdown rate of -344 feet per minute was firm.

The runway touchdown alignment was very good, as was the runway rollout alignment following the landing. The aircraft's overall performance was further supported by local weather conditions, which included a temperature of 23 °C and winds of 5 knots at 260 degrees. The crosswind speed was 5 knots, while the tailwind speed was 1 knot.

A significant amount of time was spent taxiing from the runway to the parking, with the taxiing process taking 20 minutes and covering 2 nautical miles. Throughout the flight, the aircraft used 3,191 kilograms of fuel in total, and it traveled a distance of 432 nautical miles in 94 minutes.

Landing Summary

A comprehensive analysis of the Airbus A320 landing at LIRF Rome–Fiumicino Leonardo da Vinci International Airport on runway 16L indicates that the crew successfully achieved a safe and efficient touchdown. The aircraft navigated a final approach from the north, heading 164.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,333 feet above ground level (agl). This approach trajectory was well-planned and executed, culminating in a touchdown distance of 443 meters, which was within the acceptable limits.

On landing, the pilot maintained good control of the aircraft, achieving a threshold speed of 129 knots. This speed was suitable for the conditions, and it suggests that the crew had a good understanding of the aircraft's performance and the wind conditions. The touchdown speed of 124 knots was fast, however, indicating that the pilot might have been pushing for a faster landing, which can result in reduced stopping distances but can also increase the risk of exceeding the maximum structural design loads of the landing gear.

The crosswind component of 5 knots at 260° and the tailwind component of 1 knot had a minimal impact on the landing, as the aircraft maintained a good alignment with the runway during touchdown. This was evident from the very good runway touchdown alignment and the good runway rollout alignment, which further confirms the pilot's skill and control. The aircraft touched down firmly, with a rate of -344 feet per minute, which was slightly above the average touchdown rate.

The overall performance of the Airbus A320 during the landing at LIRF Rome–Fiumicino Leonardo da Vinci International Airport was satisfactory, with a total landing distance of 1,312 meters, which represented 34% of the runway length. Given the good weather conditions, with a temperature of 23°C and a gentle breeze of 5 knots, the crew demonstrated solid skills and a good understanding of aircraft performance.
