Landing on runway 26L at EGKK London Gatwick Airport in the Airbus A320

Landing Score 96.66 %

Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 26L at EGKK was flown from the east on a heading of 258.0° at 4 nm and 1,302 ft agl. At the 1,000 ft gate the approach was assessed as stabilised, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits.

Threshold height was reported as good and the threshold speed was well above target at 150 kt.

Touchdown occurred 633 ft down the runway; touchdown speed was fast at 148 kt, the rate was firm at minus 319 fpm, and runway touchdown alignment was perfect.

The total landing distance was 4,884 ft, representing 52 % of the 9,455 ft runway, and rollout alignment was perfect.

Reduce the threshold and touchdown speeds toward the target values to lessen the firm touchdown rate and improve energy management. Fine-tune flare timing to achieve a softer rate while maintaining the precise alignment already demonstrated.
