A flight originating from a regional airport commenced its descent into the destination airport, navigating through a relatively calm atmosphere with a temperature of 25 °C and a gentle wind of 6 kt from 250°. The aircraft, an Airbus A321, made a smooth touchdown on the runway, achieving a speed of 109 kt and a descent rate of -61 fpm, both of which were within acceptable parameters. However, the touchdown position was slightly off-centre, deviating 9.1 m from the runway's centreline.
Following a successful touchdown, the aircraft continued its rollout, but unfortunately, it remained misaligned with the runway centreline, deviating by 15.5 m. Despite this, the total landing distance of 350 m was within 12% of the runway's length, indicating a relatively short and controlled stop. The aircraft then began its taxiing process, taking 7 minutes to cover a distance of 2 nautical miles to reach the parking area.
The flight's overall performance was notable for its efficiency, with a total flight distance of 2 nautical miles and a fuel consumption of 116 kg. The flight duration was 7 minutes, showcasing the aircraft's ability to operate within a short distance and time frame. Overall, the flight demonstrated a good balance between performance and efficiency, with some minor deviations from optimal procedures.

The approach to Runway 25 was initiated with a stable and controlled descent, maintaining a glide slope angle of 3.5° and a rate of descent of 1,000 fpm. The aircraft's autopilot system was engaged, providing a smooth and consistent flight path. As the aircraft descended through 100 feet, the pilot disconnected the autopilot and took manual control, aligning the aircraft with the runway centreline.
The touchdown occurred 30 feet before the threshold, with a speed of 109 knots and a descent rate of -61 feet per minute. This was an excellent touchdown characteristic, demonstrating good control and precision. However, the aircraft's centreline alignment was compromised, with a deviation of 9.1 meters from the centreline. The rollout phase was also marred by a significant deviation, with the aircraft straying 15.5 meters from the centreline. Despite this, the total landing distance of 350 meters was within the acceptable range, accounting for only 12% of the runway length.
The local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 25°C and a wind speed of 6 knots from 250°. The crosswind component was minimal, at 3 knots, while the headwind component was 5 knots. Overall, the landing was satisfactory, with a score of 80.7%. While there were some deviations from the ideal, the pilot demonstrated good control and precision, particularly in terms of touchdown speed and descent rate.
