The flight began with a departure roll from runway 12 at SBFN Fernando de Noronha Airport, where the aircraft, an Airbus A320, took off with a takeoff distance of 1,023 meters, which was 56% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 149 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 31 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 19 knots at 120 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 8 knots and a headwind of 17 knots.

As the aircraft climbed out of the airport, it began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile east of the airport. The climb took the aircraft from an initial altitude of 1,018 feet above sea level to a maximum altitude of 40,211 feet, an increase of 39,192 feet in just 21 minutes. During this climb, the aircraft covered a distance of 131 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise that followed lasted for 96 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 683 nautical miles.

The aircraft then began another climb, this time from an altitude of 40,087 feet to 40,680 feet, an increase of 593 feet in just 2 minutes. This climb took the aircraft from a latitude of -6.8803319 to -6.9514419 and a longitude of -19.0941551 to -18.9601924. The enroute level cruise that followed this climb lasted for 22 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 145 nautical miles.

As the aircraft began its descent, it started from an altitude of 40,368 feet and descended to 1,687 feet, a decrease of 38,681 feet in 23 minutes. During this descent, the aircraft covered a distance of 128 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 13 at FHAW RAF Ascension Island was made from the north-west, with a heading of 121.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,451 feet above ground level.

The landing on runway 13 was successful, with the aircraft touching down 230 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was a little fast at 127 knots, but the touchdown rate was firm at -313 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.9 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 25 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 16 knots at 136 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 15 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,605 meters, which was 53% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good.

Landing on runway 13 at FHAW RAF Ascension Island in the Airbus A320

Landing Score 95.15 %

Landing Summary

The Airbus A320 successfully landed on runway 13 at FHAW RAF Ascension Island, achieving a score of 95.2%. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the north-west, heading 121.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,451 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was conducted with a good threshold speed of 131 knots, which is within the acceptable range for a safe landing.

However, there were a few areas where the landing could be improved. The threshold height at 58 feet agl was slightly above the target, indicating that the aircraft may have been slightly high on its approach. Additionally, the touchdown speed of 127 knots was a little fast, which could have resulted in a firmer touchdown rate. The touchdown rate of -313 feet per minute (fpm) was indeed firm, but still within the acceptable range.

The touchdown point was 230 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively long distance. This could be due to the aircraft being slightly fast on its approach or having a slightly high touchdown point. The runway touchdown position was also slightly misaligned by 6.9 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the aircraft's alignment during the final approach.

The local weather conditions were favorable for the landing, with a temperature of 25°C and a wind speed of 16 knots at 136°. The crosswind component was relatively low at 6 knots, while the headwind component was 15 knots, which helped to reduce the aircraft's ground speed and make the landing more stable.

The total landing distance of 1,605 meters was 53% of the runway length, which is a relatively long distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain its alignment and direction after touchdown. Overall, the landing was successful, but there are areas where the pilot could improve to achieve a higher score.
