The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 9,559 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 582 ft 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 10 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 02 at LPPT Humberto Delgado Airport (Lisbon Portela Airport). The takeoff distance was 396 feet, which accounted for 4% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 158 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 57 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 6 knots from a direction of 330 degrees. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 4 knots. The aircraft began its enroute climb overhead Charneca, a location in the Distrito de Lisboa, Portugal. The climb started from an altitude of 1,351 feet above sea level and continued to an altitude of 39,178 feet above sea level, an increase of 37,828 feet in 25 minutes. The distance covered during this period was 169 nautical miles.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started overhead Arroyomolinos de la Vera in the Extremadura region of Spain. This phase lasted for 36 minutes and covered a distance of 280 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 6 miles northwest of Fabara in the Aragon region of Spain. The descent was from an altitude of 38,613 feet above sea level to 5,720 feet above sea level, a decrease of 32,894 feet in 18 minutes. The distance covered during this period was 110 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 3 miles south of Arenys de Mar in the Catalunya region of Spain. This phase lasted for only 3 minutes and covered a distance of 6 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, which started 5 miles southeast of Vilassar de Mar in the Catalunya region of Spain. The descent was from an altitude of 5,136 feet above sea level to 1,283 feet above sea level, a decrease of 3,852 feet in 5 minutes. The distance covered during this period was 14 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 24R at LEBL Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport was made from the northeast, with a heading of 246.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,265 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was made on runway 24R, which had a length of 9,559 feet. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 130 knots.
The touchdown distance was good at 587 feet, and the touchdown speed was 126 knots, which was also good. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -236 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the local weather conditions at the time of landing were the same as at the time of departure, with a temperature of 57 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 6 knots from a direction of 330 degrees. The crosswind component was 6 knots, while the headwind component was 1 knot.
The total landing distance was 4,368 feet, which accounted for 46% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 586 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 97 minutes. The aircraft used 9,241 pounds of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at LEBL Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport, showcasing a high level of precision and control. The final approach to runway 24R was executed from the north east, with the aircraft heading 246.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,265 feet above ground level (agl). This approach was marked by a high score of 99.7%, indicating a nearly flawless execution of the landing procedure.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 130 kt, which was within the acceptable threshold speed. The touchdown distance of 587 feet was also within the expected range, demonstrating the pilot's ability to control the aircraft's descent and speed. The touchdown speed of 126 kt was slightly lower than the threshold speed, but still within the acceptable range. However, the touchdown rate of -236 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, indicating that the aircraft's descent was not as smooth as it could have been.
Despite the slightly rough touchdown, the aircraft's runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot had successfully aligned the aircraft with the runway centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 57°F and a wind speed of 6 kt from 330°. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 kt and a headwind of 1 kt, which the pilot successfully managed during the landing.
The total landing distance of 4,368 feet was 46% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. This suggests that the pilot had successfully controlled the aircraft's speed and descent during the landing. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the pilot had successfully aligned the aircraft with the runway centerline after touchdown.
Overall, the landing of the Boeing 737-800 at LEBL Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport was a success, with the pilot demonstrating a high level of skill and control during the final approach and landing.
