What went well

Touched down at -230 fpm — a soft arrival
Threshold crossed at 45 ft and 140 kt — both inside band
Straight touchdown — 7.4 ft off the centreline, no bounce

What held you back

Arrival Landing — Flare profile at 40 %, −0.62 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown distance was 2,125 ft at 79 %, −0.18 points

Next time

Work on the flare

See Arrival Landing

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

The aircraft then started its descent 4 miles northeast of Keysville, Virginia, and descended from 35,037 feet asl to 33,009 feet asl in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 23 nautical miles.

The enroute level cruise resumed 1 mile north of Easter Field Amelia Court House (VG38) in Virginia and lasted for 20 minutes, covering a distance of 142 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent 1 mile south of Gary Field Denton (MD41) in Maryland, and descended from 33,006 feet asl to 4,209 feet asl in 14 minutes, covering a distance of 80 nautical miles.

The enroute level cruise started again 2 miles west of Medford Lakes, New Jersey, and lasted for 6 minutes, covering a distance of 24 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent overhead Kingston Estates, New Jersey, and descended from 3,398 feet asl to 1,311 feet asl in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 8 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 27R at Philadelphia International Airport (KPHL) was made from the east, with a heading of 256.0° at an altitude of 1,284 feet above ground level (agl) and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The aircraft landed on the runway, which had a length of 9,473 feet, and a threshold speed of 140 knots was achieved.

The touchdown point was 761 feet beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 133 knots, which was slightly faster than desired. The touchdown rate was fair at -230 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 30°F and a wind speed of 4 knots from a direction of 230°.

The total landing distance was 4,282 feet, which accounted for 45% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, and the aircraft taxied to the parking area from the runway in 2 minutes, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

Landing report
Landing on runway 27R at KPHL Philadelphia International Airport in the Airbus A321neo
Landing Score 95.2 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 successfully landed at Philadelphia International Airport (KPHL) on runway 27R, achieving a score of 95.2%. The aircraft approached the runway from the east, heading 256.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,284 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot maintained a good threshold height, which is a crucial aspect of a safe landing.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed at a speed of 140 kt, which is considered good for the threshold speed. However, the touchdown point was 761 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating that the pilot may have slightly over-extended the landing. The touchdown speed of 133 kt was a little fast, which could have contributed to the extended landing distance. The touchdown rate of -230 fpm was fair, suggesting that the aircraft was not excessively decelerating upon touchdown.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 30°F and winds of 4 kt at 230°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 kt, while the headwind component was 3 kt. These conditions likely contributed to a smooth and stable approach.

The total landing distance of 4,282 feet was 45% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated good skills and judgment in navigating the aircraft to a safe touchdown.
