Next time

Departure

Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.

What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 19 m off the runway centreline.

Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.

See Departure Roll

Arrival

Keep the back pressure coming once the flare is established, holding the nose up through to touchdown instead of easing it.

What happened: The flare arrested the sink but 306 fpm of it came back before touchdown, and in flights like this one that returning sink usually carries through to a firm or hard touchdown at 334 fpm.

Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: the sink held near zero all the way through touchdown, not allowed to build back up.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

Flight narrative

The flight began with the aircraft, an Airbus A319, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at KSAT San Antonio International Airport. This process took approximately 5 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 04, with the aircraft lifting off at a speed of 152 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 23°C, with a wind speed of 7 knots at a direction of 63°.

As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, which started approximately 1 mile northeast of KSAT San Antonio International Airport. The aircraft climbed from an initial altitude of 1,902 feet above sea level to a maximum altitude of 36,479 feet, an increase of 34,577 feet in just 19 minutes. This climb phase covered a distance of 129 nautical miles.

Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which began approximately 10 miles south of Cranfills Gap, Texas. This phase of the flight lasted for 95 minutes and covered a distance of 892 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started overhead Clayton, Ohio. The descent from 36,993 feet to 19,987 feet took just 10 minutes and covered a distance of 68 nautical miles.

The aircraft then began another climb phase, which started approximately 3 miles northwest of Delphos, Ohio. This climb took the aircraft from an altitude of 19,825 feet to 20,940 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 10 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which began approximately 4 miles south of 53OH Charloe Airport Paulding, Ohio. This phase of the flight lasted for just 7 minutes and covered a distance of 43 nautical miles.

The aircraft then began its final descent, which started approximately 1 mile east of Morenci, Michigan. The descent from 21,018 feet to 1,971 feet took 16 minutes and covered a distance of 71 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 21L at KDTW Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport, approaching from the northeast at a heading of 209.0°.

The landing took place on runway 21L, which had a length of 3,049 meters. The threshold height at 55 feet above ground level was slightly above the target, while the threshold speed was well above the target at 138 knots. The touchdown point was 154 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 120 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown rate was fair at -236 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.7 meters from the centerline.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 2°C, with a wind speed of 32 knots at a direction of 220°. The crosswind component was 6 knots, while the headwind component was 31 knots. The total landing distance was 1,098 meters, which was 36% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good.

Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took approximately 12 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The total flight distance was 1,220 nautical miles, which was covered in 167 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 5,837 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 21L at KDTW Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport in the Airbus A319
Landing Score 95.58 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A319 successfully landed on runway 21L at KDTW Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport, achieving a score of 95.6%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north east, heading 209.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,335 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was conducted in a challenging weather condition, with a temperature of 2°C and a wind speed of 32 kt at 220°.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 154 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is slightly off-target. The touchdown speed of 120 kt was a bit faster than the target, and the touchdown rate of -236 fpm was considered fair. The runway touchdown position was also slightly misaligned by 6.7 meters from the centerline. However, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the landing roll.

The threshold height at 55 ft agl was slightly above the target, and the threshold speed was well above the target at 138 kt. The crosswind component was minimal at 6 kt, while the headwind component was significant at 31 kt. The total landing distance of 1,098 meters was 36% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight.

Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some minor deviations from the target parameters. The pilot's skills and experience were evident in maintaining control of the aircraft during the landing roll, despite the challenging weather conditions.
