The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 7,993 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 2,364 ft past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
A flight originating from Charlotte Douglas International Airport (KCLT) departed runway 36C, covering 4,198 feet of the 9,500-foot runway in 42% of the available distance. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 142 knots, with a local temperature of 54°F and a gentle headwind of 2 knots. As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it transitioned into an enroute climb, ascending from 1,719 feet above sea level to 38,001 feet in 32 minutes, covering 118 nautical miles.
The enroute climb was followed by a series of level cruises, with the aircraft maintaining a steady altitude and airspeed. Notably, the aircraft experienced a significant descent from 37,533 feet to 20,517 feet in 19 minutes, covering 72 nautical miles. This was followed by a series of shorter level cruises and descents, with the aircraft eventually descending from 17,490 feet to 6,080 feet in 17 minutes, covering 40 nautical miles. The final approach to Nashville International Airport (KBNA) was initiated from the south, with the aircraft descending from 4,994 feet to 2,598 feet in just 2 minutes, covering 4 nautical miles.
The aircraft executed a go-around at 2,068 feet above ground level before landing on runway 02C, which measured 8,005 feet in length. The touchdown point was 971 feet beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 130 knots and a rate of descent of -77 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned, but the runway rollout alignment was very good. The total landing distance was 4,587 feet, accounting for 57% of the available runway. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, covering less than 1 nautical mile in 6 minutes. The total flight distance was 382 nautical miles, with a total fuel consumption of 7,690 pounds and a flight time of 1 hour and 52 minutes.
The final approach to runway 02C at KBNA Nashville International Airport from the south was executed with precision, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 16.0° at 0 nm and 1,986 ft above ground level. The approach quality was excellent, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 139 kt, well within the acceptable range. As the aircraft touched down on the runway, the touchdown speed of 130 kt was also good, and the touchdown rate of -77 fpm was exceptional, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
The touchdown point was located 971 ft beyond the touchdown zone, which, while not ideal, was still within the acceptable range. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 14 ft from the centreline, but the rollout alignment was very good, demonstrating the pilot's skill in maintaining control of the aircraft during the critical phases of flight. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 63°F and a gentle headwind of 2 kt, contributed to a smooth and stable approach.
The total landing distance of 4,587 ft, which accounted for 57% of the runway length, was within the acceptable range. Overall, the landing was executed with a high degree of precision and control, earning a score of 95.4%. The pilot's ability to maintain a good approach quality, control the touchdown speed and rate, and align the aircraft during the rollout phase were all key factors in achieving this high score.
