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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,494 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 500 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Paris-Orly Airport, the Boeing 737-800 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took approximately 4 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. With a departure roll from runway 07, the aircraft accelerated down the 2,000-meter runway, lifting off at a speed of 143 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 17 °C, with a gentle wind of 6 knots at 20°.
As the aircraft climbed to cruising altitude, it passed over Villeneuve-le-Roi, marking the beginning of the enroute climb phase. Over the course of 43 minutes, the aircraft ascended from 1,279 feet above sea level to 38,997 feet, a vertical gain of 37,718 feet. The enroute level cruise phase commenced over Malans, Switzerland, where the aircraft maintained a steady altitude for 33 minutes, covering a distance of 265 nautical miles. The descent phase began over Vodostaj, Croatia, and lasted 24 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 39,008 feet to 3,027 feet, a decrease of 35,980 feet. The final approach to runway 11 at Sarajevo International Airport was initiated from the northwest, with the aircraft aligning itself with the runway at 4 nautical miles and 1,352 feet above ground level.
The landing was executed smoothly, with the aircraft touching down 83 meters beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 128 knots. The touchdown rate was an impressive -60 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The total landing distance was 941 meters, accounting for 47% of the 1,996-meter runway. Following a quick taxiing period of 1 minute, the aircraft came to a stop, having completed its journey of 743 nautical miles in 106 minutes, with a fuel consumption of 5,038 kilograms.
The Boeing 737-800 touched down smoothly on runway 11 at LQSA Sarajevo International Airport, showcasing exceptional approach quality. The aircraft descended from an altitude of 1,352 feet above ground level (agl) at a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway, aligning itself with the runway heading of 118.0 degrees. The approach was characterized by a stable and controlled descent, culminating in a good threshold height.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was slightly above the target threshold speed of 135 knots, registering 138 knots. However, the touchdown speed of 128 knots was a tad fast, indicating a slight deviation from the ideal touchdown speed. The touchdown point was located 83 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, but the runway touchdown alignment was very good, demonstrating precise control and coordination. The touchdown rate of -60 feet per minute (fpm) was an excellent indicator of the aircraft's controlled descent and stable touchdown.
The aircraft's rollout was characterized by perfect alignment with the runway centerline, showcasing exceptional control and coordination. The total landing distance of 941 meters was 47% of the runway length, indicating a safe and controlled rollout. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 25 degrees Celsius and a gentle headwind of 5 knots, contributed to a smooth and stable landing. Overall, the landing was scored 100.0%, reflecting the crew's exceptional skill and control throughout the approach, touchdown, and rollout phases.
