The flight began with the Airbus A321 taxiing from the parking to the runway at London Gatwick Airport, taking 15 minutes to cover 3 nautical miles. Departing from runway 26L, the aircraft lifted off after a takeoff distance of 1,211 meters, which was 49 percent of the runway length. Liftoff occurred at a speed of 152 knots.

As the flight progressed, the aircraft started its enroute climb, leaving the London area and rising from 1,229 feet above sea level to 32,770 feet, an increase of 31,541 feet in just 19 minutes, covering a distance of 109 nautical miles. The climb took place as the aircraft passed overhead the town of Charlwood in Surrey, England.

The enroute level cruise began 24 miles east of Aldeburgh, Suffolk, and lasted for 7 minutes, covering 56 nautical miles. However, this was short-lived, as the descent from 32,999 feet to 17,284 feet began 17 miles north-west of Ter Heijde in the Netherlands. The decrease in altitude was 15,716 feet in 14 minutes, covering 98 nautical miles.

As the flight continued, the aircraft experienced several level cruises and descents, navigating through various points in the Netherlands, Germany, and eventually heading towards Düsseldorf Airport. Notable level cruises took place over Varsseveld in the Netherlands and Gladbeck, as well as a short one from Erkelenz Airfield.

The final level cruise occurred just north-east of EDJF Wanlo Airfield Erkelenz before entering the final approach to runway 05L at EDDL Düsseldorf Airport. Descending from 3,014 feet to 1,418 feet in just 2 minutes, the aircraft prepared for its landing.

Landing on the 2,104-meter-long runway 05L, the aircraft had a good threshold height and threshold speed was slightly above target at 141 knots. Although the touchdown speed at 133 knots was a bit fast, the touchdown rate of -295 feet per minute was fair. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.2 meters from the centerline.

The total landing distance was 1,734 meters, accounting for 82 percent of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. After the landing, the taxiing to the parking from the runway took 4 minutes, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

In total, the flight utilized 4,449 kilograms of fuel and took 87 minutes to complete, covering a total distance of 362 nautical miles.

Landing on runway 05L at EDDL Düsseldorf Airport in the Airbus A321

Landing Score 94.18 %

Landing Summary

A comprehensive review of the Airbus A321 landing at Düsseldorf Airport (EDDL) reveals a generally successful touchdown with some minor deviations. The aircraft made a final approach from a southwest direction, heading 53.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles (nm) and 1,269 feet above ground level (agl). This positioning set the stage for a successful landing on runway 05L, which boasts a length of 2,104 meters.

Upon closer inspection, it is evident that the threshold height was satisfactory, but the threshold speed was marginally above the targeted value at 141 knots (kt). This slight deviation in speed had a ripple effect on the subsequent stages of the landing. The touchdown distance of 413 meters was judged as good, demonstrating a precise landing. However, the touchdown speed of 133 kt was marginally faster than desired, and the corresponding touchdown rate of -295 feet per minute (fpm) was fair but in need of adjustment.

Runway alignment also presented a minor issue, with the aircraft touching down 4.2 meters off the runway centreline. Nonetheless, the overall performance was robust, considering the prevailing environmental conditions. A temperature of 20 °C combined with winds of 9 kt at 0° facilitated an ideal landing environment, with a 7 kt crosswind and a 5 kt headwind further ensuring stability.

In terms of overall distance, the Airbus A321 utilized 82% of the runway, covering 1,734 meters before coming to a complete stop. The runway rollout alignment was commended for its exceptional performance, which is a testament to the pilot's skill and the aircraft's handling capabilities.

In conclusion, the landing of the Airbus A321 at Düsseldorf Airport (EDDL) on runway 05L was an eventful and instructive landing experience. Although there were minor deviations in terms of speed and alignment, the aircraft demonstrated exceptional handling and the pilots showcased their proficiency in navigating the prevailing weather conditions. The outcome is an impressive landing performance scoring 94.2%.
