What went well

Touched down at -183 fpm — a soft arrival
Threshold crossed at 44 ft and 132 kt — both inside band
Straight touchdown — 1.68 m off the centreline, no bounce

What held you back

Arrival Landing — Landing and flare profile at 34 %, −0.69 points
Departure Taxi — Taxi Lights at 0 %, −0.67 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown distance was 659 m at 78 %, −0.17 points

Top opportunity

Work on the flare

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.

Landing report
Landing on runway 08R at EGKK London Gatwick Airport in the Airbus A321neo
Landing Score 94.87 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 successfully landed at London Gatwick Airport's runway 08R, achieving a score of 94.9%. The aircraft approached the runway from the west, heading 77.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,325 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's threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 132 kt, registering at 133 kt. However, the touchdown point was 239 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which may indicate a slight deviation from the intended landing path. The touchdown speed of 128 kt was also a bit faster than the desired speed, but the touchdown rate of -173 feet per minute (fpm) was satisfactory.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 18°C and a moderate wind of 9 kt at 140°. The crosswind component was 8 kt, while the headwind component was 4 kt, which may have contributed to the slight deviation from the intended landing path. Despite this, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the landing.

The total landing distance of 1,601 meters was 64% 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 and brought it to a safe stop. Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated good skills and control during the approach and landing phases.
