Landing on runway 18R at KDFW Dallas Fort Worth International Airport in the Airbus A320

Landing Score 99.04 %

Landing Summary

The Airbus A320 successfully landed on runway 18R at KDFW Dallas Fort Worth International Airport, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its flight operations. The aircraft's final approach was conducted from the north, heading 180.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,332 feet above ground level (agl). This approach was executed with precision, as evidenced by the aircraft's ability to maintain a smooth touchdown rate of -149 feet per minute (fpm).

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was slightly above the recommended threshold speed of 138 knots, registering at 133 knots. However, this minor deviation did not significantly impact the overall performance of the landing. The touchdown distance of 362 meters was also within acceptable limits, indicating that the aircraft's descent was well-controlled and managed.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 23°C and a gentle headwind of 6 knots at 160°. The crosswind component was minimal, at 2 knots, which further contributed to the smoothness of the landing. The runway length of 4,095 meters provided ample space for the aircraft to decelerate and come to a stop, with the total landing distance of 1,449 meters accounting for only 35% of the available runway.

The runway touchdown alignment was excellent, indicating that the aircraft's pilots had successfully aligned the aircraft with the runway centerline. This alignment was maintained throughout the rollout phase, with the aircraft's wheels remaining aligned with the runway centerline. Overall, the landing was executed with precision and control, demonstrating the high level of proficiency of the Airbus A320 and its pilots.
