This Airbus A320 departed from Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport, taxiing onto Runway 02 from the parking area in just 5 minutes, having covered a short distance of less than 1 nautical mile. With the local weather conditions being relatively calm, with a temperature of 84 °F and a light headwind, the plane took off successfully within 4,867 feet of the runway, reaching its liftoff speed of 145 kt.

As the plane began its enroute climb, it rapidly ascended from a starting altitude of 1,057 feet above sea level to a cruising altitude of 34,189 feet, covering a distance of 101 nautical miles in just 17 minutes, and achieving an increase of 33,132 feet in altitude. The enroute climb continued until the plane reached a position 3 miles south of Simmesport Airport in Louisiana, where it transitioned into a level cruise mode. The level cruise lasted for a total of 107 minutes, covering a significant distance of 722 nautical miles.

After covering nearly 800 nautical miles, the enroute descent started 17 miles northeast of the Skywagon Ranch Airport in Colorado, where the plane descended from a cruising altitude of 34,066 feet to a lower altitude of 7,976 feet in just 20 minutes, and covering a distance of 105 nautical miles. The descent was followed by a brief level cruise period of just 2 minutes, covering 5 nautical miles, before the plane began a more substantial descent from an altitude of 7,794 feet to 6,215 feet in just 2 minutes. The final enroute descent started 1 mile south of the Lindys Airpark in Colorado, and lasted for just a short duration.

Upon reaching the vicinity of Denver International Airport, the plane commenced its final approach to Runway 17R, aligning itself perfectly with the runway from the north. With the plane at an altitude of 826 feet above ground level at a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway, it started its descent, aiming to touch down smoothly on the runway. The landing was executed successfully, with the plane touching down at a speed of 131 kt and a rate of descent of -74 fpm. Although the touchdown speed was slightly higher than the recommended threshold speed of 136 kt, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect.

Following the successful landing, the plane continued its rollout, taxiing to the parking area in just 7 minutes. Having completed its flight from New Orleans International Airport to Denver International Airport, the Airbus A320 had covered a total distance of 948 nautical miles, used 13,100 pounds of fuel, and taken a total flight time of 162 minutes.

Landing Score 100 %

Landing Summary

The Airbus A320 successfully landed at Denver International Airport (KDEN) on runway 17R with a score of 100.0%. The final approach from the north, heading 182.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles altitude, demonstrated precise control and adherence to standard procedures.

The aircraft touched down at 285 feet beyond the threshold, an acceptable margin, and the threshold speed of 136 knots was within the expected range. However, the touchdown speed of 131 knots was slightly higher than ideal. The rate of descent was exceptional, with a touchdown rate of -74 feet per minute, showcasing the crew's precise control and attention to detail.

The approach and landing were conducted in favorable weather conditions, with a temperature of 74 degrees Fahrenheit and minimal wind, amounting to 3 knots from 240 degrees. With a headwind of 1 knot, the crosswind was negligible, making the landing even smoother. The total landing distance was 5,704 feet, representing 47% of the runway length.

The rollout after touchdown was executed flawlessly, with perfect alignment, once again demonstrating the crew's skills and adherence to safety protocols. The combination of precise control, adherence to standard procedures, and favorable weather conditions made this landing a textbook example of effective aviation operations.
