Next time

Departure

Raise the gear lever promptly once a positive climb is confirmed, before reaching the target retraction height.

What happened: Gear retraction was delayed, with the gear not coming up until 715 ft agl.

Watch for: Landing gear: up by the normal retraction gate

See Departure Climb 3

Arrival

Keep the back pressure coming once the flare is established, holding the nose up through to touchdown instead of easing it.

What happened: The flare arrested the sink but 181 fpm of it came back before touchdown, and in flights like this one that returning sink usually carries through to a firm or hard touchdown at 512 fpm.

Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: the sink held near zero all the way through touchdown, not allowed to build back up.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering it.

Flight narrative

The Airbus A320neo taxied from the parking area to runway 26 at LICC Catania-Fontanarossa Airport in 7 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nm.

During the departure roll on runway 26, the aircraft accelerated over 988 m, representing 40 % of the runway length, and lifted off at 142 kt; ambient conditions were 32 °C with a wind of 1 kt from 277°, a headwind component of 1 kt and no cross-wind.

Climb commenced overhead the departure airport, rising from 1,009 ft asl to 14,765 ft asl - a gain of 13,756 ft - in 6 minutes while covering 30 nm.

The first cruise segment began 1 mile south-west of LIGR Campo di Volo Avioclub Caltagirone Grammichele and lasted 7 minutes, during which the aircraft flew 41 nm at level altitude.

Descent started 19 miles south-west of Marina di Ragusa, with the aircraft descending from 14,721 ft asl to 3,187 ft asl, a loss of 11,534 ft, over 10 minutes and a distance of 54 nm.

A second cruise phase was initiated 5 miles south of Birzebbuga, Malta, lasting 8 minutes and covering 29 nm before the final approach began.

The final approach to runway 31 at LMML Malta International Airport was flown from the south-east on a heading of 315.0°, intercepting the glide path at 4 nm and 1,229 ft agl; local weather reported 32 °C, wind 1 kt from 76°, a cross-wind of 1 kt and a tail-wind component of 1 kt.

Landing on runway 31, which is 3,351 m long, was achieved with a threshold speed of 131 kt. Touchdown occurred 308 m down the runway at 129 kt, with a firm vertical speed of minus 390 fpm. The aircraft touched down 12.1 m off the centreline, and the total landing distance recorded was 993 m, equivalent to 30 % of the runway length.

Runway rollout remained slightly off-centreline by 12.1 m, consistent with the touchdown deviation.

The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.

In total, the flight covered 162 nm, required 42 minutes of airborne time, and consumed 1,387 kg of fuel.

Landing on runway 31 at LMML Malta International Airport in the Airbus A320neo
Landing Score 85.05 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A320neo approached runway 31 at LMML Malta International Airport from the south-east on a heading of 315.0° at 4 nm and 1,229 ft agl. The final approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits.

During the threshold and flare phase the aircraft maintained a good threshold speed of 131 kt and the touchdown distance was good at 308 m. The flare was executed with the aircraft aligned to the runway centreline and the speed remained within the expected range.

Touchdown occurred at a speed of 129 kt, which was good, and the touchdown rate was firm at minus 390 fpm. The touchdown point was misaligned by 12.1 m from the centreline, while the total landing distance measured 993 m, representing 30 % of the 3,351 m runway.

Rollout alignment remained slightly misaligned by 12.1 m from the centreline as the aircraft decelerated along the runway. Local weather conditions were 32 °C with a wind of 1 kt from 076°, including a 1 kt crosswind and a 1 kt tailwind.

Focus on maintaining centreline alignment through flare and rollout to reduce the 12.1 m offset. Refine flare technique to achieve a smoother touchdown and lessen the firm minus 390 fpm sink rate.
