What went well

Touchdown 244 m in — inside the full-score zone
Threshold crossed at 45 ft and 144 kt — both inside band
Rollout controlled — 39 % of the runway used

What held you back

Arrival Landing — Flare profile at 21 %, −0.82 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown rate was -840 fpm at 74 %, Landing Bounce at 80 %, −0.50 points
Enroute Descent — landing lights off should be on, then 250 kt exceeded below 10,000 ft; speed limits at 90 %, −0.33 points

Next time

Arrival

Begin the flare with progressive back pressure and keep it coming until the sink is arrested, rather than flying it on flat.

What happened: The nose was barely raised in the flare and little of the sink was taken out, flying the aircraft onto the runway. This pattern usually carries through to a firm touchdown with a noticeable sink rate.

Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: a smoothly reducing sink through the normal flare band, not a steady rate into the runway.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

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.

Flight narrative

The flight began with the Airbus A321 taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Salt Lake City International Airport, taking 11 minutes and covering a distance of 3 nautical miles. The departure roll took place on runway 16R, with the aircraft lifting off after a takeoff distance of 1,602 meters, which was 44% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 165 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 10 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 39 knots from a direction of 180 degrees. This resulted in a headwind of 39 knots and a crosswind of 3 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile southwest of the airport and rising from an altitude of 5,794 feet above sea level to 34,493 feet, an increase of 28,699 feet in 22 minutes, covering a distance of 155 nautical miles.

Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, starting 1 mile northwest of the Greater Green River Intergalactic Spaceport in Wyoming. This phase lasted for 136 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 1,192 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 4 miles south of Sewanee, Tennessee, and descending from an altitude of 34,973 feet to 2,968 feet, a decrease of 32,005 feet in 20 minutes, covering a distance of 124 nautical miles.

The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting 3 miles east of Candler-McAfee, Georgia, and lasting for 9 minutes, during which it covered a distance of 29 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 26R at Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport took place from the east, with the aircraft heading 270 degrees at an altitude of 1,273 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway.

The landing on runway 26R was successful, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 143 knots, which was slightly fast. The touchdown distance was 243 meters, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.3 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 17 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 10 knots from a direction of 200 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 9 knots and a headwind of 3 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,121 meters, which was 41% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, and the aircraft was able to taxi to the parking area in 4 minutes, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,509 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 199 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 9,046 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 aircraft successfully landed at Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport (KATL) on runway 26R. The final approach was initiated from the east, heading 270.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,273 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a good threshold height, which is a critical aspect of a safe landing.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold speed was recorded at 144 knots, which is within the acceptable range. However, the touchdown speed of 143 knots was slightly higher than the ideal speed, indicating a slight deviation from the optimal landing parameters. The touchdown distance of 243 meters was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilot's ability to control the aircraft's descent.

Despite the slightly fast touchdown speed, the aircraft's touchdown rate was excessively heavy at -840 feet per minute (fpm). This indicates that the aircraft touched down with a significant amount of force, which could potentially lead to a bumpy ride or even damage to the aircraft's landing gear. The runway touchdown position was also slightly misaligned by 7.3 meters from the centerline, which may require some adjustments during the rollout phase.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 17°C and a wind speed of 10 knots from 200°. The crosswind component was 9 knots, while the headwind component was 3 knots. These conditions did not appear to significantly impact the landing, as the aircraft maintained a stable approach and touchdown.

The total landing distance of 1,121 meters was 41% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and bring it to a stop safely.

Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some minor deviations from the optimal landing parameters. The pilot's ability to maintain a good threshold height and touchdown speed, despite the slightly fast touchdown speed, was commendable. However, the excessively heavy touchdown rate and slightly misaligned runway touchdown position require attention to ensure a smoother and safer landing in the future.
