What went well

Touched down at -282 fpm — a soft arrival
Touchdown 1,429 ft in — inside the full-score zone
Threshold crossed at 38 ft and 136 kt — both inside band

What held you back

Departure Roll — Liftoff speed was 178 kt at 89 %, −0.15 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown rate was -280 fpm at 94 %, −0.06 points

Next time

Departure

Ease the nose up sooner to lift off at 158 kt instead of letting speed build on the ground.

What happened: The aircraft lifted off at 178 kt, 20 kt above the target liftoff speed.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 158 kt at liftoff

See Departure Roll

A typical trainer rotates in the mid-50s of knots - a 172 at around 55 KIAS, climbing out at a Vy in the low 70s, though check your own POH rather than memorising Cessna's numbers - and the transferable rule is that Vr sits just above the stall speed in takeoff configuration. Rotate early because "it felt ready" and the aircraft lifts off inside ground effect, where induced drag is reduced, then climbs out of it into more drag. On a marginal-performance day the result is an aircraft that lifts off and then refuses to climb, sagging back towards the runway.

Landing report
Landing on runway 16R at KDEN Denver International Airport in the Airbus A321neo
Landing Score 99.37 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 successfully landed at Denver International Airport (KDEN) on runway 16R, achieving a high score of 99.4%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north, heading 181.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,345 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 136 knots, which is within the acceptable range. The touchdown distance of 1,432 feet was also satisfactory, indicating that the pilot had sufficient control over the aircraft during the landing phase. The touchdown speed of 130 knots was also within the acceptable range, further emphasizing the pilot's skill and control.

However, the touchdown rate of -280 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 perfect, indicating that the pilot had successfully aligned the aircraft with the runway centerline.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 84°F and a wind speed of 2 knots from 120°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, while the headwind component was 1 knot. These conditions contributed to a smooth and stable landing.

The total landing distance of 5,240 feet was 33% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the pilot had successfully controlled the aircraft during the rollout phase.

Overall, the landing was a success, with the pilot demonstrating excellent control and skill throughout the approach and landing phases. The high score of 99.4% reflects the pilot's expertise and attention to detail, ensuring a safe and smooth landing at Denver International Airport.
