The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: seven 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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,882 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,882 ft of the 11,515 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,295 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft taxiing from the parking to the runway at KDEN Denver International Airport, taking 9 minutes and covering 2 nautical miles. Departure roll occurred on runway 34L, with a takeoff distance of 8,727 feet, which was 54% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 166 knots.
As the aircraft climbed, it started 2 miles northwest of KDEN, rising from 6,380 feet above sea level to 34,710 feet above sea level, an increase of 28,330 feet in 19 minutes, covering 120 nautical miles. The enroute climb was followed by a level cruise that started 7 miles east of Wray, Colorado, lasting 135 minutes and covering 1,007 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began its descent 4 miles north of Grant Town, West Virginia, descending from 34,711 feet above sea level to 14,667 feet above sea level, a decrease of 20,045 feet in 14 minutes, covering 86 nautical miles. This was followed by a brief level cruise that started 1 mile southeast of 48VA Al's Field Gore, lasting 14 minutes and covering less than 1 nautical mile.
The aircraft then began another descent 1 mile southeast of 48VA Al's Field Gore, descending from 14,650 feet above sea level to 6,816 feet above sea level, a decrease of 7,835 feet in 3 minutes, covering 17 nautical miles. This was followed by a short level cruise that started 1 mile east of Boyce, lasting 2 minutes and covering 8 nautical miles.

This was followed by a brief level cruise that started overhead Middleburg, lasting 2 minutes and covering 7 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began another descent 2 miles east of Bull Run Mountain Estates, descending from 5,580 feet above sea level to 983 feet above sea level, a decrease of 4,597 feet in 6 minutes, covering 7 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 01C at KIAD Washington Dulles International Airport was made from the south, with the aircraft heading 0.0° at 4 nautical miles and 693 feet above ground level.
The aircraft landed on runway 01C, with a runway length of 11,515 feet. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly above target at 144 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 1,302 feet, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 140 knots. The touchdown rate was fair at -266 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The total landing distance was 5,646 feet, which was 49% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also very good. The aircraft then taxied to the parking from the runway, taking 3 minutes and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,269 nautical miles, taking 194 minutes and using 16,264 pounds of fuel.
The Airbus A320 successfully landed on runway 01C at KIAD Washington Dulles International Airport with a score of 97.0%. The aircraft approached the runway from the south, heading directly towards the runway at an altitude of 693 feet above ground level (agl) and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 140 knots, which was slightly above the target speed. The touchdown distance was 1,302 feet, which was considered good. The aircraft's alignment with the runway during touchdown was very good, indicating a smooth and controlled landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 61 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 5 knots from a direction of 230 degrees. The crosswind component was 4 knots, while the tailwind component was 3 knots. These conditions did not appear to have a significant impact on the landing.
The total landing distance was 5,646 feet, which accounted for 49% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft was able to touch down and come to a stop within a reasonable distance. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, suggesting that the aircraft was able to maintain control and stability during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft touching down smoothly and coming to a stop within a reasonable distance. The score of 97.0% indicates that the landing was well-executed and met the desired standards.
