Landing on runway 35 at FZNA Goma International Airport in the MD-11

Landing Score 95.24 %

Landing Summary

The MD-11 aircraft successfully landed at FZNA Goma International Airport, achieving a score of 95.2%. The final approach was conducted from the south, heading 352.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,383 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 35, which has a length of 2,003 meters.

The threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed was maintained at 158 knots, indicating a good approach configuration. The touchdown distance of 116 meters was also within acceptable limits. However, the touchdown speed of 157 knots was slightly higher than desired, which may have contributed to a fair touchdown rate of -215 feet per minute (fpm).

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 3.2 meters, which may have been due to a minor deviation in the approach path. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 20°C and a light headwind of 1 knot at 356°. The crosswind component was negligible, at 0 knots.

The total landing distance of 1,607 meters was 80% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll. The runway rollout alignment was excellent, demonstrating good control and stability during the landing phase. Overall, the landing was successful, with only minor deviations from the ideal performance.
