The flight began with a departure roll from runway 27 at East Midlands Airport (EGNX). The Airbus A319 took off after covering 63% of the 1,628-meter runway, reaching a liftoff speed of 151 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 23 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots at a direction of 60 degrees, resulting in a 1-knot crosswind and a 2-knot tailwind.

As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb approximately 1 mile south-west of Castle Donington, Leicestershire. The climb took place from an initial altitude of 1,327 feet above sea level to a maximum altitude of 27,971 feet, an increase of 26,644 feet in just 15 minutes. During this phase, the aircraft covered a distance of 77 nautical miles.

Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started approximately 1 mile west of Long Preston, North Yorkshire. This phase lasted for 4 minutes and covered a distance of 35 nautical miles.

As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent overhead the Bedlands Gate airstrip in Penrith, Cumbria. The descent took place from an altitude of 27,572 feet to 1,393 feet, a decrease of 26,179 feet in 21 minutes, covering a distance of 87 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 24 at Edinburgh Airport (EGPH) was made from the north-east, with the aircraft heading 239.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,271 feet above ground level. The landing took place on the 2,132-meter runway, with the threshold height being above the target and the threshold speed being good at 127 knots.

The touchdown point was 94 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 125 knots, which was slightly fast. The touchdown rate was firm at -351 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.7 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots at a direction of 60 degrees, resulting in a 0-knot crosswind and a 2-knot tailwind.

The total landing distance was 1,679 meters, which accounted for 79% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating a smooth and controlled landing. The taxiing to the parking area from the runway took 6 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

In summary, the flight covered a total distance of 207 nautical miles, taking 53 minutes to complete, and used 2,195 kilograms of fuel.

Landing on runway 24 at EGPH Edinburgh Airport in the Airbus A319

Landing Score 89.43 %

Landing Summary

The Airbus A319 aircraft successfully landed at Edinburgh Airport (EGPH) on runway 24, achieving a score of 89.4%. The final approach was initiated from the north-east, heading 239.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,271 feet above ground level (agl).

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 94 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is slightly off-center. The touchdown speed of 125 knots was a bit faster than the target speed, indicating that the pilot may have needed to apply more braking force to slow down the aircraft. The touchdown rate of -351 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, suggesting that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the landing.

The threshold height at 62 feet agl was above the target, which may have required the pilot to adjust the approach path to ensure a safe landing. However, the threshold speed of 127 knots was within the acceptable range, indicating that the pilot maintained a stable approach speed.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 20°C and a wind speed of 2 knots at 60°. The crosswind component was negligible, and the tailwind component was minimal at 2 knots. These conditions likely contributed to a smooth landing.

The total landing distance of 1,679 meters was 79% of the available runway length, which is a relatively short distance. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.

Overall, while the landing was not perfect, the pilot demonstrated good control and decision-making skills, resulting in a successful landing at Edinburgh Airport.
