The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 5,939 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,939 ft of the 9,391 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,622 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 15 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 16R at LTFM İstanbul Airport. The takeoff distance was 6,277 feet, which accounted for 52% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 164 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 89 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 5 knots from a direction of 220 degrees. The crosswind was 3 knots, while the headwind was also 3 knots. With these conditions in mind, the aircraft began its enroute climb, starting 2 miles southwest of LTFM İstanbul Airport Arnavutköy. The climb took 26 minutes and covered a distance of 155 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 1,333 feet above sea level to 35,716 feet.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which began 3 miles southeast of Antonovo in Oblast Targovishte, Bulgaria. This phase lasted for 96 minutes and covered a distance of 1,177 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its enroute descent, which began 14 miles east of Ingoldmells in Lincolnshire, England. The descent took 34 minutes and covered a distance of 112 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from an altitude of 36,178 feet to 1,484 feet.
The final approach to runway 05R at EGCC Manchester Airport was made from the southwest, with a heading of 51.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,261 feet above ground level. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 61 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 3 knots from a direction of 359 degrees. The crosswind was 2 knots, while the headwind was also 2 knots. The aircraft landed on the runway, with a touchdown point 209 feet beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 135 knots, which was considered good, and the touchdown rate was smooth at -131 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also perfect. The total landing distance was 5,626 feet, which accounted for 60% of the runway. The aircraft then taxied to the parking from the runway, which took 5 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,456 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 178 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 22,889 pounds of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at Manchester Airport's runway 05R, achieving a high score of 99.8%. The final approach was conducted from the south-west, with a heading of 51.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,261 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach was characterized by a good threshold height, indicating that the pilots maintained a safe and controlled descent.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold speed was recorded at 142 knots, which is within the acceptable range for a safe landing. The touchdown point was located 209 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone, but this was still considered a good result given the aircraft's speed and altitude at the time of touchdown. The touchdown speed of 135 knots was also within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -131 feet per minute (fpm) was smooth, indicating a controlled and stable descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 61°F and a wind speed of 3 knots from a direction of 359°. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 2 knots, which did not significantly impact the aircraft's landing performance. The total landing distance of 5,626 feet was 60% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft was able to stop safely within the available runway length.
The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the pilots maintained control of the aircraft during the post-landing phase and were able to bring it to a stop in a safe and controlled manner. Overall, the landing was considered a success, with the aircraft performing well in terms of speed, altitude, and distance.
