The Concorde took off from runway 23 at Kurumoch International Airport, located in Samara, Russia. The departure roll was smooth, and the aircraft lifted off the ground after covering a distance of just 274 feet, which accounted for only 3% of the runway's length. The liftoff speed was 154 knots, a testament to the Concorde's exceptional takeoff capabilities.
As the aircraft began its enroute climb, it started to ascend from an altitude of 761 feet above sea level to 1,092 feet, a gain of 331 feet in just one minute. This impressive climb rate allowed the Concorde to cover a distance of 3 nautical miles in a short span of time. The climb was initiated approximately one mile southwest of the airport, marking the beginning of the aircraft's ascent into the skies.
Upon reaching the desired altitude, the Concorde began its final approach to runway 23, which was located at Kurumoch International Airport. The approach was made from the northeast, with the aircraft heading towards the runway at a bearing of 242.0 degrees. At this point, the aircraft was just one nautical mile away from the runway and was flying at an altitude of 648 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 23 was executed with precision, with the Concorde touching down at a speed of 163 knots. Although the touchdown speed was a little fast, the touchdown rate was perfect at 39 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 13 feet. The total landing distance covered by the Concorde was 7,016 feet, which accounted for 84% of the runway's length.
The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft during the landing process. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 77 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 259 degrees. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 2 knots.
In conclusion, the Concorde's flight was marked by a smooth takeoff, an impressive climb rate, and a precise landing. The aircraft's exceptional performance was evident throughout the flight, which covered a total distance of 6 nautical miles and consumed 2,348 pounds of fuel.

The Concorde's landing at UWWW Kurumoch International Airport was a complex operation, requiring precise execution to ensure a safe and successful touchdown. The aircraft approached the runway from the north east, heading 242.0° at 1 nautical mile and 648 feet above ground level (agl). This positioning allowed the pilots to make a smooth transition onto the runway, taking advantage of the prevailing wind conditions.
The local weather at the time of landing was favorable, with a temperature of 77°F and a gentle wind of 2 knots at 259°. This resulted in a minimal crosswind component of 1 knot and a headwind of 2 knots, which the pilots skillfully managed to maintain a stable approach. The threshold speed was well within the acceptable range at 172 knots, indicating that the pilots had a good understanding of the aircraft's performance and were able to configure it for a smooth touchdown.
However, the touchdown speed of 163 knots was slightly faster than desired, which may have been due to the pilots' decision to prioritize a smooth touchdown over a slightly longer rollout. Nevertheless, the touchdown rate of 39 feet per minute (fpm) was perfect, demonstrating the pilots' expertise in managing the aircraft's descent and ensuring a safe touchdown.
The touchdown point was 1,070 feet beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively long distance. This may have been due to the pilots' decision to extend the landing distance to account for any potential errors or uncertainties in the approach. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 13 feet from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilots' alignment or a minor error in the aircraft's navigation system.
Despite the slightly long touchdown distance and misaligned touchdown position, the Concorde's runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilots had successfully managed the aircraft's deceleration and were able to maintain a stable alignment with the runway centerline. The total landing distance of 7,016 feet was 84% of the runway length, which is a relatively high percentage, but still within the acceptable range for a commercial airliner.
Overall, the Concorde's landing at UWWW Kurumoch International Airport was a complex and challenging operation that required precise execution and expert piloting skills. While there were some minor deviations from the ideal touchdown point and speed, the pilots were able to successfully manage the aircraft's descent and ensure a safe and successful touchdown.
