Flight narrative

The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 10 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, an Airbus A321, then departed from runway 26L at Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport (KATL). The takeoff distance was 1,700 meters, which accounted for 56% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 157 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 24 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 10 knots from a direction of 310 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 7 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting overhead College Park, Georgia, and ascending from an altitude of 2,065 feet above sea level to 37,343 feet above sea level, an increase of 35,278 feet in 14 minutes and covering a distance of 139 nautical miles.

Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, starting 4 miles northeast of Enoree, South Carolina, and lasting 11 minutes, during which it covered a distance of 225 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 1 mile southeast of Victoria, Virginia, and descending from 36,841 feet above sea level to 3,263 feet above sea level, a decrease of 33,578 feet in 14 minutes and covering a distance of 112 nautical miles.

The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting overhead Bennsville, Maryland, and lasting 2 minutes, during which it covered a distance of 6 nautical miles. The final descent phase began overhead Fort Washington, Maryland, and the aircraft descended from 2,637 feet above sea level to 1,299 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,338 feet in 2 minutes and covering a distance of 4 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 01 at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (KDCA) was made from the south, heading 355.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,278 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 01, which had a length of 2,190 meters. The threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 144 knots.

The touchdown point was 104 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 134 knots, which was a little fast. However, the touchdown rate was good at -192 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.2 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 11 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 18 knots from a direction of 320 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 10 knots and a headwind of 15 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,110 meters, which accounted for 51% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 495 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 54 minutes. The aircraft used 3,746 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing report
Landing on runway 01 at KDCA Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport in the Airbus A321neo
Landing Score 97.4 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 successfully landed at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (KDCA) on runway 01, achieving a score of 97.4%. The aircraft approached the runway from the south, heading 355.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,278 feet above ground level (agl).

The landing was executed with a good threshold height, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 144 knots. This may indicate a slight delay in the aircraft's descent or a slight increase in airspeed during the final approach. The touchdown point was 104 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation.

The touchdown speed of 134 knots was a little fast, which may have contributed to the slightly beyond-the-zone touchdown. However, the touchdown rate of -192 feet per minute (fpm) was good, indicating a controlled descent. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.2 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight drift or a minor deviation in the aircraft's alignment.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 11°C, with a wind speed of 18 knots at 320°. This resulted in a crosswind of 10 knots and a headwind of 15 knots, which may have affected the aircraft's alignment and touchdown point.

The total landing distance was 1,110 meters, which is 51% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating a good performance from the aircraft. The runway rollout alignment was very good, suggesting that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively.

Overall, the landing was successful, with a high score and a good performance from the aircraft. However, there were some minor deviations in the touchdown point and speed, which may be addressed in future training or operations.
