The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,088 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,088 ft of the 8,282 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 839 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 6 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 23 at LFBD Bordeaux-Mérignac Airport. The takeoff distance was 4,853 feet, which accounted for 48% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 152 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 71°F and a wind speed of 7 knots from a direction of 180°. This resulted in a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 5 knots. The aircraft began its enroute climb approximately 1 mile southwest of the airport, rising from an altitude of 1,192 feet above sea level to 31,559 feet above sea level in 15 minutes, covering a distance of 77 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise phase started 1 mile south of Dunes, France, and lasted for 12 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 93 nautical miles. The descent phase began 3 miles south of Belcaire, France, and took 30 minutes to descend from 31,696 feet above sea level to 1,295 feet above sea level, covering a distance of 92 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 02 at LEBL Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport was made from the south, with a heading of 19.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,275 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown distance of 841 feet, which was 58% of the runway length. The touchdown speed was 133 knots, and the touchdown rate was -199 feet per minute.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 75°F and a wind speed of 7 knots from a direction of 60°. This resulted in a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 5 knots. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also perfect. The total landing distance was 4,818 feet.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, which took 7 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 270 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 72 minutes. The aircraft used 6,880 pounds of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at LEBL Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport, showcasing exceptional piloting skills and adherence to standard operating procedures. The final approach to runway 02 was executed from the south, with the aircraft heading 19.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,275 feet above ground level (agl).
The landing was characterized by a good threshold height, indicating that the aircraft was properly configured for touchdown. The threshold speed of 138 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilots' ability to manage the aircraft's speed during the approach. Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was 133 knots, which is also within the recommended range, and the touchdown rate of -199 feet per minute (fpm) was good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 75°F and a wind speed of 7 knots at 60°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was also 5 knots, resulting in a net headwind effect. The pilots effectively managed these wind conditions to ensure a stable and controlled approach.
The touchdown distance of 841 feet was good, and the aircraft landed within the acceptable range of the runway. The total landing distance of 4,818 feet was 58% 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 pilots maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
Overall, this landing demonstrates the pilots' expertise and adherence to standard operating procedures, resulting in a safe and efficient landing at LEBL Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport.
