Top opportunity

Avoid steep turns at low altitude

Departure Climb 3

Below a thousand feet the aeroplane is slow, heavy and close to the ground. A steep turn loses lift, raises the stall speed and flattens the climb just when the gradient matters most. A normal turn on course is a rate one — fifteen degrees or so, twenty-five at the outside, this penalty is to acknowledge when a turn has stopped being a turn and become a manoeuvre.

Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, starting 2 miles west of Stovall, North Carolina, and lasting 11 minutes. This cruise phase covered 86 nautical miles.

The aircraft then began its descent, starting overhead Short Pump, Virginia. The descent took 11 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 37,004 feet to 27,040 feet, a decrease of 9,964 feet. The descent covered 71 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 2 miles east of Baden, Maryland, and lasting 2 minutes. This cruise phase covered 9 nautical miles.

The aircraft then began another descent, starting 1 mile west of Deale Airport, Maryland. The descent took 18 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 26,421 feet to 2,795 feet, a decrease of 23,626 feet. The descent covered 74 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 1 mile south of Wilmington, Delaware, and lasting 34 minutes. This cruise phase covered 76 nautical miles.

The aircraft then began its final descent, starting overhead Sewaren, New Jersey. The descent took 3 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 2,790 feet to 1,323 feet, a decrease of 1,468 feet. The descent covered 5 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 04L at Newark Liberty International Airport (KEWR), approaching from the southwest at a heading of 26.0 degrees.

The aircraft landed on runway 04L, which was 7,029 feet long. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 135 knots. The touchdown point was 489 feet beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 128 knots, which was a little fast. However, the touchdown rate was perfect at -22 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 11 feet from the centerline.

The total landing distance was 3,895 feet, which accounted for 55% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, taking 5 minutes and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 463 nautical miles, and the flight took 108 minutes. The aircraft used 11,001 pounds of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 04L at KEWR Newark Liberty International Airport in the Airbus A321neo
Landing Score 98.36 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 successfully landed on runway 04L at KEWR Newark Liberty International Airport, achieving a score of 98.4%. The aircraft approached the runway from the southwest, heading 26.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,303 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with a good threshold height, indicating that the aircraft was properly configured for landing.

Upon touchdown, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 135 knots, which may have contributed to a slightly faster touchdown speed of 128 knots. However, the touchdown rate of -22 feet per minute (fpm) was perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown point was 489 feet beyond the touchdown zone, which may have been due to the slightly fast touchdown speed.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 11 feet from the centerline, which may have been a result of the aircraft's approach path or the pilot's control inputs. Despite this, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline during the rollout phase.

The total landing distance of 3,895 feet was 55% of the runway length, which is a relatively short landing distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 58°F. Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft was properly controlled throughout the approach and landing phases.
