The flight began with an enroute climb from 32,834 feet above sea level (asl) to 32,334 ft asl, an increase of 500 feet in just 1 minute, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles. This climb started 8 miles north of Paro in the Paro Dzongkhag region of Bhutan.

Following the initial climb, the aircraft began its enroute descent from 32,331 ft asl to 13,087 ft asl, a decrease of 19,244 feet in 5 minutes, covering a distance of 19 nautical miles. This descent started 9 miles north of Paro.

The aircraft then initiated another enroute climb from 13,078 ft asl to 15,792 ft asl, an increase of 2,714 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 6 nautical miles. This climb started 9 miles south of Gasa in the Gasa region of Bhutan.

The aircraft then entered a level cruise for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 6 nautical miles, before initiating another enroute climb from 16,015 ft asl to 17,014 ft asl, an increase of 999 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 6 nautical miles. This climb started 12 miles north of Thimphu in the Thimphu Dzongkhag region of Bhutan.

The aircraft then entered another level cruise for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 7 nautical miles, before initiating its final enroute descent from 17,015 ft asl to 8,016 ft asl, a decrease of 8,999 feet in 6 minutes, covering a distance of 6 nautical miles. This descent started 5 miles north of Paro.

The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 15 at VQPR Paro International Airport from the north, heading 161.0° at 1 nautical mile and 608 feet above ground level (agl). However, the aircraft was required to perform a go-around due to unknown reasons.

After the go-around, the aircraft successfully landed on runway 15 at VQPR Paro International Airport, which has a length of 6,533 feet. The threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 116 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 1,097 feet, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 108 knots. The touchdown rate was very hard at -576 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 17 feet from the centreline.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 59°F, with a wind speed of 1 knot at 270°. The crosswind was 1 knot, and the headwind was 0 knots. The total landing distance was 4,137 feet, which is 63% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good.

After landing, the aircraft took 3 minutes to taxi to the parking area from the runway, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 72 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 43 minutes. The aircraft used 3,225 pounds of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 15 at VQPR Paro International Airport in the Airbus A319

Landing Score 85.03 %

Landing Summary

The Airbus A319 aircraft successfully landed at VQPR Paro International Airport, but the landing was not without some issues. The final approach was initiated from the north, heading 161.0° at 1 nautical mile and 608 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 15, which has a length of 6,533 feet.

The threshold height was reported as good, but the threshold speed was excessively high at 156 kt, which is above the target speed. However, the touchdown speed of 108 kt was slightly faster than desired. The touchdown distance of 1,097 feet was considered good, but the touchdown rate of -576 fpm was very hard, indicating a high rate of descent.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 17 feet from the centreline, which may have been due to the pilot's judgment or the aircraft's performance. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 59°F and a wind speed of 1 kt at 270°, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind.

The total landing distance of 4,137 feet was 63% of the runway length, which is within the acceptable range. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase. Overall, while the landing was not perfect, it was still considered successful, and the pilot's skills and the aircraft's performance were adequate to handle the conditions.
