Top opportunity

Monitor your speed

Enroute Climb

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.

Landing on runway 25L at VVTS Tan Son Nhat International Airport in the Airbus A321
Landing Score 99.72 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 successfully landed at VVTS Tan Son Nhat International Airport on runway 25L, achieving a high score of 99.7%. The aircraft approached the runway from the east, heading 248.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,311 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot maintained a good threshold height, which is a critical aspect of a safe landing.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold speed was recorded at 139 knots, which is within the acceptable range. The touchdown distance of 1,289 feet was also satisfactory, indicating that the pilot had sufficient control over the aircraft during the landing phase. The touchdown speed of 132 knots was also within the acceptable limits, further emphasizing the pilot's skill and expertise.

However, the touchdown rate of -229 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, suggesting that the pilot could have maintained a more gradual descent rate. Nevertheless, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown.

The local weather conditions were favorable for the landing, with a temperature of 79°F and a wind speed of 0 knots at 360°. This meant that there was no crosswind or headwind to contend with, making the landing even more challenging. The total landing distance of 4,969 feet was 50% 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 had maintained control over the aircraft during the rollout phase and had brought it to a stop safely. Overall, the landing was a success, with the pilot demonstrating excellent skills and expertise in navigating the aircraft to a safe touchdown.
