Flight narrative

The aircraft used for the flight was an Airbus A320. The taxiing process from the parking area to the runway took 9 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles (nm). The departure from Heraklion International Nikos Kazantzakis Airport (LGIR) occurred from runway 27.

The aircraft began its takeoff roll and lifted off at a speed of 156 knots (kt). The takeoff distance covered 1,654 meters, which accounts for 74% of the available runway length. The local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 32 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 16 kt at 299 degrees.

Upon reaching an altitude of 34,693 feet above sea level (asl), the aircraft began its enroute climb, which lasted for 21 minutes and covered a distance of 125 nm. The aircraft climbed from an initial altitude of 1,051 ft asl to the aforementioned maximum altitude. Overhead the Greek island of Crete, near the location of Nea Alikarnassos, the ascent was particularly steep.

Following the climb, the aircraft transitioned into a level cruise, which lasted for 229 minutes and covered a distance of 1,369 nm. This enroute segment began approximately 19 miles south of Ydra in the Greek region of Attica.

As the flight neared its destination, the aircraft began its enroute descent near Emberton in Milton Keynes, England, located approximately 1 mile south-west of the location.

A second descent phase took place near Hopwood in Worcestershire, England, after levelling out briefly 1 mile northeast of this location. The level flight of 2 minutes covered 4 nm before the subsequent descent to 6,628 ft in 6 minutes covering 13 nm.

The final approach to runway 15 at Birmingham International Airport (EGBB) commenced from the north-west at a heading of 146.0° and at an altitude of 1,337 feet above ground level (agl). Upon landing, the touchdown point was located 179 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone at a speed of 130 kt. The touchdown speed was a little fast, but the aircraft demonstrated an excellent rate of descent at -57 feet per minute (fpm).

Runway rollout alignment was very good, and in terms of performance, the aircraft's use of 79% of the 2,317-meter runway length, or 1,838 meters, during the landing process is notable.

Taxiing to the parking area from the runway after landing took 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nm. The total distance covered by the flight was 1,566 nm, and the entire journey took 251 minutes. The fuel consumption for the flight was approximately 9,791 kg.

Landing Summary

The Airbus A320 demonstrated a satisfactory performance during its landing at EGBB Birmingham International Airport. The aircraft, approaching from the north-west, was at an altitude of 1,337 feet above ground level (agl) and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway when making a final approach.

On touchdown, the aircraft managed to maintain a good alignment with the runway, but unfortunately, the landing spot was slightly beyond the designated touchdown zone, at 179 meters past it. The speed at which the aircraft touched down, approximately 130 knots, was a little faster than the desirable target, indicating a slight lack of control during the final stages of descent.

In a positive note, the aircraft's touchdown rate was excellent, registering a negative rate of 57 feet per minute. This suggests that the aircraft successfully slowed down during the landing process, which contributed to its overall stability and control.

During the landing process, the aircraft faced a marginal tailwind of 6 knots, a crosswind of 9 knots, and a wind speed of 10 knots from a direction of 270 degrees. Despite these challenging conditions, the aircraft maintained a good runway alignment throughout the rollout process, displaying a high level of control and stability.

The aircraft's total landing distance of 1,838 meters accounted for approximately 79% of the runway length, which is within the acceptable limits. The runway length, at 2,317 meters, was sufficient for the aircraft to safely come to a stop, given the landing conditions.
