Stabilised approach
The approach, gate by gate
Where the wheels went down
Side view — the last 1,618 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,618 m of the 3,041 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 678 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
1.74 points lost
Biggest loss first. Every scored stage counts equally within its phase, and the phases equally in the flight score — so each amount is exact, not an estimate.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A320 taxied from the parking area to runway 34L at Denver International Airport, a movement that lasted 16 minutes and covered 4 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 34L, the aircraft accelerated to a liftoff speed of 147 kt and left the ground after traveling 2,105 m, which represented 43 % of the runway length; ambient temperature was 30 °C with a wind of 8 kt from 180°, no cross-wind component and an 8 kt tail-wind.
Climb commenced 2 mi north-west of Denver, with the airplane ascending from 6,375 ft asl to 36,272 ft asl, a gain of 29,897 ft achieved in 20 minutes while covering 136 nm.
Level cruise began 5 mi south-east of NE19 Ag Air Airport in Nebraska and was maintained for 41 minutes, during which the aircraft flew 333 nm.
Descent was initiated 7 mi east of Pipestone, Minnesota, with the aircraft descending from 36,070 ft asl to 2,142 ft asl, a loss of 33,928 ft over 22 minutes and a distance of 137 nm.
The final approach to runway 12R at Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport was flown from the north-west on a heading of 121.0°, intercepting the glide path at 4 nm and 1,290 ft agl; local conditions were 24 °C, wind 7 kt from 329°, a 3 kt cross-wind and a 6 kt tail-wind.
Landing on runway 12R, which is 3,041 m long, occurred with a threshold speed of 138 kt; touchdown was recorded 262 m beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 129 kt, a vertical rate of minus 344 fpm, and alignment described as very good.
The aircraft rolled out over a distance of 1,536 m, representing 51 % of the runway, with rollout alignment noted as perfect.
After exiting the runway, the Airbus A320 taxied to the parking area in 2 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 616 nm, required 96 minutes of elapsed time, and used minus 506 kg of fuel.
The Boeing 737-800 entered the final approach to runway 23 at KRDM Roberts Field from the north-east on a heading of 239.0° at 4 nm and 1,562 ft agl. Local weather was 13 °C with wind 3 kt from 200°, including a 2 kt headwind and a 2 kt crosswind. At the 1,000 ft gate the approach was assessed as unstable because the sink rate was too high.
At threshold the aircraft maintained a good threshold speed of 136 kt and a good threshold height, setting up the flare for touchdown. The flare resulted in a touchdown distance that was good at 456 m.
Touchdown occurred with a good speed of 126 kt and a fair vertical rate of minus 298 fpm. The touchdown point was slightly misaligned by 3.9 m from the centreline, and the aircraft landed on runway 23 whose length is 2,138 m.
Rollout alignment was very good. The total landing distance was 1,268 m, representing 59 % of the available runway, and the aircraft remained well aligned during the rollout.
The high overall score of 97.4 % reflects solid performance; refining the approach to keep sink rate within limits will convert the unstable assessment to stable. Improving centreline tracking in the final seconds will further tighten touchdown alignment.
