The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking area to the runway, which took 12 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, an Airbus A321, then departed from runway 23L at Düsseldorf Airport (EDDL), with a takeoff distance of 1,164 meters, which accounted for 49% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 143 knots.

As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions of 15°C temperature and a wind speed of 2 knots at 29 degrees. The crosswind was 1 knot, while the tailwind was 2 knots. After departing from Düsseldorf, the aircraft began its enroute climb, which started overhead the airport and reached an altitude of 19,968 feet above sea level (asl) in 10 minutes, covering a distance of 41 nautical miles. The climb involved an increase of 18,792 feet.

The enroute level cruise started 3 miles southwest of Drolshagen, Germany, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 10 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb, this time from an altitude of 20,658 feet asl to 34,873 feet asl, an increase of 14,215 feet in 13 minutes, covering a distance of 89 nautical miles. The climb took place overhead Kirchen, Germany.

Following the second climb, the aircraft entered another enroute level cruise, which started 3 miles northeast of Eussenheim, Germany, and lasted for 24 minutes, covering a distance of 193 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 1 mile north of Locenice, Czech Republic, and involved a descent from 35,249 feet asl to 1,911 feet asl, a decrease of 33,338 feet in 14 minutes, covering a distance of 97 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 29 at Vienna International Airport (LOWW) was made from the southeast, with a heading of 296.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,303 feet above ground level (agl). The landing took place on runway 29, which had a length of 3,494 meters. The threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 142 knots.

The touchdown distance was good at 364 meters, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 135 knots. The touchdown rate was very hard at -548 feet per minute (fpm). The runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 17°C temperature and a wind speed of 9 knots at 346 degrees. The crosswind was 7 knots, while the headwind was 6 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,730 meters, which accounted for 50% of the runway. However, the runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 20.9 meters from the centerline. The total flight distance was 439 nautical miles, taking 71 minutes, and the aircraft used 4,131 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 29 at LOWW Vienna International Airport in the Airbus A321

Landing Score 88.47 %

Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 aircraft successfully landed at Vienna International Airport (LOWW) on runway 29, achieving an overall score of 88.5%. The final approach was initiated from the southeast, heading 296.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,303 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach to the runway was precise, with a good threshold height and a slightly above-target threshold speed of 142 knots.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's landing distance was within acceptable limits at 364 meters, but the touchdown speed of 135 knots was slightly faster than desired. The most concerning aspect of the landing was the high touchdown rate of -548 feet per minute (fpm), indicating a hard touchdown. However, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, suggesting that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the landing.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 17°C and a moderate wind of 9 knots from 346°. The crosswind component was 7 knots, while the headwind component was 6 knots. These conditions did not appear to significantly impact the landing.

Despite the successful landing, there was a notable issue with the runway rollout alignment, which was misaligned by 20.9 meters from the centerline. This suggests that the pilot may have experienced some difficulty in maintaining control of the aircraft during the rollout phase, potentially due to the hard touchdown or other factors.

Overall, the landing was considered successful, but there were some areas for improvement, particularly with regards to the touchdown speed and rate, as well as the runway rollout alignment.
