Touched down at -334 fpm — a soft arrival
Touchdown 1,160 ft in — inside the full-score zone
Threshold crossed at 24 ft and 138 kt — both inside band

What held you back

Arrival Landing — Flare profile at 89 %, −0.12 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown rate was -334 fpm. at 92 %, −0.10 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.

The enroute climb started shortly after, 1 mile northwest of National Park in New Jersey, and the aircraft climbed from 1,025 feet above sea level to 35,009 feet, an increase of 33,984 feet in 26 minutes, covering a distance of 187 nautical miles.

The enroute level cruise began 114 miles southeast of Atlantic City, New Jersey, and lasted for 152 minutes, covering a distance of 1,231 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its enroute descent 38 miles northeast of R095 British Virgin Static Carrier - Prince of Wales in the British Virgin Islands, descending from 34,433 feet to 1,374 feet in 19 minutes, covering a distance of 103 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 10 at Princess Juliana International Airport was made from the west, heading 127.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,359 feet above ground level. However, the aircraft performed a go-around at 1,257 feet above ground level. The landing was eventually made on runway 10, with a runway length of 7,529 feet. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 138 knots.

The touchdown distance was good at 1,162 feet, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 133 knots. The touchdown rate was firm at -334 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 12 feet from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 84°F temperature and a 6-knot headwind at 90°. The crosswind was 1 knot, and the headwind was 6 knots.

The total landing distance was 3,585 feet, which was 48% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The aircraft then taxiied to the parking area from the runway, a process that took 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,561 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 218 minutes. The aircraft used 24,076 pounds of fuel during the flight.

Landing Score 98.48 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 successfully landed at TNCM Princess Juliana International Airport, achieving a high score of 98.5%. The aircraft approached the runway from the west, heading 127.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,359 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with precision, and the aircraft landed safely on runway 10, which has a length of 7,529 feet.

The threshold height was good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct altitude as it approached the runway. The threshold speed of 138 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed during the landing phase. The touchdown distance of 1,162 feet was also good, indicating that the aircraft was able to touch down within a safe distance from the runway threshold.

However, the touchdown speed of 133 knots was slightly faster than the recommended speed, which may have resulted in a firmer touchdown rate of -334 feet per minute (fpm). Despite this, the runway touchdown position was only slightly misaligned by 12 feet from the centreline, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the landing phase.

The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 84°F and a wind speed of 6 knots at 90°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 6 knots, which helped to stabilize the aircraft during the landing phase. The total landing distance of 3,585 feet was 48% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight.

The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and bring it to a safe stop. Overall, the landing was executed with precision and control, and the pilot's skills and experience were evident throughout the entire process.
