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 11,120 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 167 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 7 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-700, then departed from runway 35R at LTFM İstanbul Airport. The takeoff distance was 2,799 feet, which accounted for 21% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 143 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 54°F and winds of 9 knots at 20°. The crosswind was 3 knots, while the headwind was 8 knots. As the aircraft took off, it began its enroute climb, which started 1 mile northwest of LTFM İstanbul Airport Arnavutköy. The climb was from an altitude of 1,409 feet above sea level to 24,798 feet above sea level, an increase of 23,389 feet in 9 minutes, covering a distance of 32 nautical miles.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which began overhead Adalar. This phase lasted for 17 minutes and covered a distance of 140 nautical miles. The enroute descent phase started 9 miles northwest of Gudul, where the aircraft descended from 24,947 feet above sea level to 4,448 feet above sea level, a decrease of 20,498 feet in 11 minutes, covering a distance of 40 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 03R at LTAC Esenboğa International Airport was made from the southwest, heading 36.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,324 feet above ground level. The landing was executed on runway 03R, which had a length of 11,120 feet. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 124 knots. The touchdown distance was 173 feet, and the touchdown speed was 123 knots, both of which were considered good. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -220 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 52°F and winds of 7 knots at 0°. The crosswind was 4 knots, while the headwind was 6 knots. The total landing distance was 4,554 feet, which accounted for 41% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect.
The final phase of the flight involved taxiing to the parking from the runway, which took 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 219 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 48 minutes. The aircraft used 5,140 pounds of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-700 aircraft successfully landed on runway 03R at LTAC Esenboğa International Airport, achieving a high score of 99.7%. The final approach was conducted from the southwest, heading 36.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,324 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated good control and precision during the approach, ultimately touching down on the runway with a speed of 123 knots.
The threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed of 124 knots was also within acceptable limits. The touchdown distance of 173 feet was within the expected range, indicating a smooth and controlled landing. The touchdown speed of 123 knots was also good, suggesting that the aircraft was properly configured for landing.
However, the touchdown rate of -220 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, indicating that the aircraft may have experienced a slight bounce or oscillation upon touchdown. This could be attributed to various factors, including the aircraft's weight, the runway's surface, or the pilot's technique.
Despite this minor issue, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 52°F and a wind speed of 7 knots at 0°. The crosswind component was minimal at 4 knots, while the headwind component was 6 knots, which helped to stabilize the aircraft during the approach.
The total landing distance of 4,554 feet was 41% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was properly controlled and aligned with the runway centerline during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft demonstrated good control and precision throughout the approach and touchdown phases. However, the fair touchdown rate and slight bounce upon touchdown are areas for improvement, which can be addressed through further training and practice.
