Departing from Glasgow International Airport, Paisley, the Airbus A321 initiated its enroute climb phase, rapidly ascending from an initial altitude of 55 feet above sea level to 3,232 feet above sea level in just one minute, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles. This marked the beginning of a steep climb, with an increase of 3,177 feet in altitude.

Following the enroute climb, the aircraft transitioned into a level cruise phase, maintaining a steady altitude of 3,232 feet above sea level for five minutes as it traversed 21 nautical miles south of Johnstone, Renfrewshire. The cruise phase allowed the aircraft to reach a stable state, optimizing fuel efficiency and reducing the workload on the flight crew. Subsequently, the aircraft began its enroute descent phase, gradually decreasing its altitude from 3,561 feet above sea level to 1,412 feet above sea level in three minutes, covering a distance of 10 nautical miles.

Upon reaching the final approach phase, the Airbus A321 descended from 1,371 feet above ground level, aligning itself with runway 23 at Glasgow International Airport from the north-east. The aircraft touched down 48 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 138 knots, which was slightly faster than the recommended threshold speed of 152 knots. The touchdown rate was smooth, at -110 feet per minute, and the runway rollout alignment was very good. Following a successful landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in four minutes. The total flight distance was 40 nautical miles, with a fuel consumption of 704 kilograms, and the flight duration was 16 minutes.

Landing Score 97.69 %

Landing Summary

The aircraft touched down on runway 23 at EGPF Glasgow International Airport, a 2,353-meter-long runway, after a final approach from the north east, heading 226.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,371 feet above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height achieved. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the optimal range, registering 152 knots.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was 138 knots, which was faster than the recommended touchdown speed. Nevertheless, the touchdown rate was smooth, at -110 feet per minute. The touchdown point was located 48 meters beyond the touchdown zone, indicating a slight deviation from the ideal touchdown position. The runway touchdown position was also slightly misaligned by 3.9 meters from the centreline. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 11°C and a wind speed of 19 knots from 190°, contributed to a crosswind of 11 knots and a headwind of 16 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,525 meters, accounting for 65% of the runway length. The rollout alignment was very good, demonstrating the pilot's skill in maintaining control of the aircraft during the critical phases of the landing. Overall, the landing performance scored 97.7%, reflecting a high level of proficiency in executing a safe and efficient landing.
