What went well

Touched down at -178 fpm — a soft arrival
Threshold crossed at 50 ft and 139 kt — both inside band
Straight touchdown — 2.63 m off the centreline, no bounce

What held you back

Arrival Landing — Flare profile at 0 %, −1.04 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown distance was 1,082 m at 0 %, −0.65 points
Arrival Taxi — peak taxi speed 36 kt at 71 %, −0.48 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.

Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, starting 1 mile northeast of Oberriexingen in Baden-Wuerttemberg, Germany. This phase of the flight lasted 66 minutes and covered 447 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, starting overhead Kirby Muxloe in Leicestershire, England, where it descended from 34,502 feet to 2,999 feet, a decrease of 31,502 feet in 15 minutes, covering 61 nautical miles.

The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 2 miles east of Mossley in the Borough of Tameside, England. This phase of the flight was brief, lasting only 2 minutes and covering 5 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting overhead Hyde in the Borough of Tameside, England, where it descended from 3,008 feet to 1,386 feet, a decrease of 1,622 feet in 2 minutes, covering 5 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 23R at Manchester Airport (EGCC) was made from the northeast, with the aircraft heading 231.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,156 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with the touchdown point being 662 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 124 knots, which was good, and the touchdown rate was -178 feet per minute, also good. The runway touchdown alignment was very good.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 9°C temperature and a wind speed of 4 knots at 170 degrees. The crosswind was 3 knots, while the headwind was 2 knots. The total landing distance was 1,860 meters, which accounted for 76% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect.

After landing, the aircraft taxiied to the parking area, a process that took 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 615 nautical miles, which was covered in 116 minutes, and the aircraft used 5,411 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 23R at EGCC Manchester Airport in the Airbus A321neo
Landing Score 89.14 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 successfully landed on runway 23R at Manchester Airport (EGCC) with a score of 89.1%. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the north east, heading 231.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,156 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 140 knots, which is within the acceptable range. The touchdown point was located 662 meters beyond the touchdown zone, indicating a slight overrun but still within the runway's length. The touchdown speed of 124 knots was also within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -178 feet per minute (fpm) was good, indicating a controlled descent.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 9°C and a wind speed of 4 knots from 170°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, and the headwind component was 2 knots, which helped to stabilize the aircraft during the landing. The total landing distance of 1,860 meters was 76% of the runway's 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 landing and rollout phases. Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot's skills and experience were evident in the execution of the maneuver. However, there is room for improvement, as the touchdown point was slightly beyond the touchdown zone, and the landing distance was slightly longer than expected.
