Next time

Arrival

Wait for the normal flare band and the correct speed before raising the nose, rather than starting the flare at 58 ft.

What happened: The flare began at 58 ft, 13 ft above the normal band, and the touchdown followed at 381 fpm. Starting the flare this early usually carries through to a firmer arrival than a flare begun in the normal band.

Watch for: Radio altimeter: hold the flare start within the normal flare band

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

There are several things that can go wrong during the flare, carrying too much speed over the threshold, starting the flare at the wrong height and inconsistent flight control inputs, all contribute to a poor flare resulting in a hard touchdown or a float down the runway.

Flight narrative

The Airbus A320 taxied from the parking area to runway 15L at KIAH, a movement that required 6 minutes and covered less than 1 nm.

During the departure roll on runway 15L, the aircraft used 2 280 m of runway, representing 62 % of the available length, and lifted off at 166 kt. Local weather reported a temperature of 18 °C, wind 2 kt from 270°, a 2 kt cross-wind component and a 1 kt tail-wind component.

The initial climb began 2 mi north-east of Aldine, Texas, climbing from 1 046 ft asl to 36 993 ft asl - an increase of 35 947 ft - over 22 minutes while covering 136 nm.

Descent started 5 mi south of El Jicaral, Nicaragua, descending from 37 033 ft asl to 2 132 ft asl - a loss of 34 901 ft - in 18 minutes and covering 107 nm.

A brief cruise segment began 4 mi west of MRMC Murcielago Airport, La Cruz, Costa Rica, lasting 2 minutes and spanning 7 nm.

Subsequent climb commenced 6 mi south-west of the same airport, climbing from 1 757 ft asl to 5 503 ft asl - an increase of 3 746 ft - in 2 minutes and covering 7 nm.

Another cruise phase started 13 mi north-west of Sardinal, Costa Rica, lasting 2 minutes and covering 7 nm.

Descent resumed 9 mi north-west of Sardinal, descending from 6 115 ft asl to 1 550 ft asl - a decrease of 4 565 ft - in 4 minutes and covering 13 nm.

The final approach to runway 07 at MRLB Guanacaste Airport was executed from the south-west, on a heading of 71.0° at 4 nm and 1 280 ft agl.

Landing on runway 07, which is 2 736 m long, occurred with a threshold speed slightly above target at 140 kt. Touchdown was 55 m beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 130 kt, with a firm touchdown rate of minus 333 fpm and a lateral deviation of 4.3 m from the centreline. Local conditions were 15 °C, wind 2 kt from 270°, a 1 kt cross-wind and a 2 kt tail-wind. Total landing distance was 1 918 m, representing 70 % of the runway, and runway rollout alignment was very good.

Runway rollout proceeded with very good alignment throughout the deceleration phase.

The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 2 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.

In total, the flight covered 1 306 nm, required 194 minutes of airborne time, and consumed 7 563 kg of fuel.

Landing Summary

The Airbus A320 completed a final approach to runway 07 at MRLB Guanacaste Airport from the south-west, maintaining a heading of 71.0° at 4 nm and 1,280 ft agl. Local conditions were 15 °C with wind 2 kt from 270°, a 1 kt crosswind component and a 2 kt tailwind component. The aircraft received a score of 97.2 % for the overall landing.

At threshold the height was reported as good and the threshold speed was slightly above target at 140 kt. The flare proceeded from this condition without further comment.

Touchdown occurred 55 m beyond the touchdown zone with a speed of 130 kt that was a little fast. The vertical rate was firm at minus 333 fpm and the touchdown point was slightly misaligned by 4.3 m from the centreline. Total landing distance measured 1,918 m, representing 70 % of the 2,736 m runway.

Rollout alignment was very good as the aircraft decelerated along the remaining runway length.

Refine the approach to achieve the target threshold speed and reduce touchdown speed to the intended value, which will help place the main gear within the touchdown zone. Maintaining the aim point approximately 300 m (1,000 ft) in will also minimise lateral deviation from the centreline.
