Landing on runway 07L at VHHH Hong Kong International Airport in the Airbus A321neo
Landing Score 97.53 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 aircraft successfully landed at Hong Kong International Airport (VHHH) on runway 07L, achieving a score of 97.5%. The final approach was initiated from the southwest, heading 71.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,240 feet above ground level (agl).

The aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 143 knots, which was slightly above the target threshold speed. However, the touchdown distance of 437 meters was considered good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown speed of 136 knots was a little fast, but the touchdown rate of -202 feet per minute (fpm) was fair, suggesting a relatively gentle impact.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 6.3 meters, which may have been due to factors such as wind or pilot error. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 26°C and a wind speed of 10 knots from 222°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the tailwind component was 9 knots.

The total landing distance of 1,247 meters was 33% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll. The runway rollout alignment was very good, suggesting that the aircraft was well under control during the landing phase. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score and demonstrating good control and precision.
