Landing on runway 14L at EDDK Cologne Bonn Airport in the Airbus A321

Landing Score 82.75 %

Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 aircraft successfully landed on runway 14L at EDDK Cologne Bonn Airport, achieving an overall score of 82.8%. The final approach was initiated from the north-west, heading 138.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,260 feet above ground level (agl).

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 808 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a significant deviation from the target. The touchdown speed of 146 knots was slightly above the target, indicating that the pilot may have been unable to fully arrest the aircraft's descent before touchdown. The touchdown rate of -316 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, suggesting that the aircraft's wheels made contact with the runway with a moderate amount of force.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 3°C and a wind speed of 11 knots from a direction of 120°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the headwind component was 10 knots. These conditions were relatively favorable for landing, with the headwind component helping to slow the aircraft's descent.

The total landing distance of 2,002 meters was 53% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft was able to stop within a reasonable distance after touchdown. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.7 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to the pilot's inability to fully control the aircraft's direction during the rollout phase.

Overall, while the landing was successful, there were several areas for improvement, including the touchdown point, touchdown speed, and runway rollout alignment. These issues may be addressed through further training and practice for the pilot.
