Top opportunity

Hold the approach angle

Flight narrative

The flight began with the aircraft, an Airbus A340, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Juan Santamaría International Airport, taking 2 minutes and covering a distance of 1 nautical mile. Departure roll took place on runway 07, with the aircraft taking off after a distance of 1,422 meters, which was 56% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 155 knots.

As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb 1 mile south east of Alajuela, Costa Rica, at an altitude of 4,150 feet above sea level. The climb continued to an altitude of 13,307 feet, an increase of 9,157 feet in just 4 minutes, covering a distance of 15 nautical miles. The local weather conditions during this time were characterized by a temperature of 24 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 9 knots at 249 degrees.

Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, starting 6 miles north east of Zarcero, Costa Rica. This phase lasted for 19 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 46 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 8 miles north of Tilaran, Costa Rica, descending from an altitude of 13,263 feet to 3,566 feet in 9 minutes, covering a distance of 36 nautical miles.

The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting 1 mile south of MRLT Las Trancas Airport, Las Trancas, Costa Rica. This phase lasted for 5 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 4 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent 3 miles north of Sardinal, Costa Rica, descending from an altitude of 3,054 feet to 1,908 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 07 at MRLB Guanacaste Airport was made from the west, with the aircraft heading 73.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,614 feet above ground level and a distance of 2 nautical miles from the runway. The landing took place on runway 07, which had a length of 2,749 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 128 knots.

The touchdown point was 81 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 128 knots and a touchdown rate of -363 feet per minute, which was firm. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 11.3 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions during landing were characterized by a temperature of 25 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 8 knots at 120 degrees, with a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 5 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,194 meters, which was 43% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 10.8 meters from the centerline. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area from the runway, taking 2 minutes and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

The total flight distance was 112 nautical miles, taking 47 minutes, and the aircraft used 3,405 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 07 at MRLB Guanacaste Airport in the Airbus A340
Landing Score 91.22 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A340 aircraft successfully landed at MRLB Guanacaste Airport, achieving a score of 91.2%. The final approach to runway 07 was initiated from the west, with a heading of 73.0° at 2 nautical miles and 1,614 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on the runway, which has a length of 2,749 meters.

The threshold height was reported as good, but the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 128 knots. The touchdown point was 81 meters beyond the touchdown zone, indicating a slight deviation from the intended landing spot. The touchdown speed of 128 knots was considered good, and the touchdown rate of -363 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, suggesting a controlled descent.

However, there were some issues with the alignment of the aircraft during the landing. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 11.3 meters from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 10.8 meters from the centerline. This suggests that the aircraft may have drifted off course during the landing.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 25°C and a wind speed of 8 knots at 120°. The crosswind component was 6 knots, and the headwind component was 5 knots. The total landing distance was 1,194 meters, which is 43% of the runway length. Overall, while the landing was successful, there were some areas for improvement in terms of alignment and touchdown point accuracy.
