Work on the flare

See 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.

The aircraft then began its descent again, this time from 13,820 feet above sea level to 8,103 feet above sea level, a decrease of 5,716 feet in 5 minutes and covering 26 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise started once more, this time overhead Northolt, lasting 2 minutes and covering 7 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent again, with a decrease of 5,334 feet in 5 minutes and covering 17 nautical miles.

The enroute level cruise resumed for a third time, this time overhead Binfield Heath, lasting 3 minutes and covering 8 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, with a decrease of 1,394 feet in 3 minutes and covering 5 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 09L at EGLL London Heathrow Airport took place from the west, with a heading of 90.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,288 feet above ground level.

The landing on runway 09L was successful, with a touchdown distance of 338 meters and a touchdown speed of 125 knots. The touchdown rate was hard at -460 feet per minute, but the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.7 meters from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 4°C temperature and winds of 20 knots at 40 degrees, with a crosswind of 15 knots and a headwind of 13 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,488 meters, which accounted for 41% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good, and the aircraft was able to taxi to the parking area in 4 minutes, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

Landing report
Landing on runway 09L at EGLL London Heathrow Airport in the Airbus A321neo
Landing Score 96.55 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 successfully landed on runway 09L at EGLL London Heathrow Airport, achieving a score of 96.5%. The aircraft approached the runway from the west, heading 90.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,288 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 134 knots, which is within the acceptable range. The touchdown distance of 338 meters was also satisfactory, indicating that the pilot had sufficient control over the aircraft during the landing phase. The touchdown speed of 125 knots was also within the acceptable limits, further emphasizing the pilot's skill and control.

However, the touchdown rate was recorded at -460 feet per minute (fpm), which is considered hard. This may indicate that the pilot could have applied a smoother touchdown, reducing the impact on the aircraft's landing gear and potentially minimizing the risk of damage.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.7 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to the crosswind conditions. The local weather conditions at the time of landing included a temperature of 4°C and wind speeds of 20 knots at 40°. The crosswind component was 15 knots, while the headwind component was 13 knots. These conditions may have contributed to the slight misalignment of the aircraft during touchdown.

Despite the slight misalignment, the total landing distance of 1,488 meters was only 41% of the runway length, indicating that the pilot had sufficient control over the aircraft during the landing phase. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, suggesting that the pilot had successfully transitioned from the landing phase to the rollout phase.

Overall, the landing was successful, with the pilot demonstrating good control and skill throughout the approach and landing phases. However, there is room for improvement in terms of touchdown rate and alignment with the centerline.
