The Airbus A321 successfully landed at Zürich Airport (LSZH) on runway 14, achieving a score of 97.5%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north-west, heading 137.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,286 feet above ground level (agl). The landing was executed on a runway with a length of 3,138 meters.
The threshold height was reported as good, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 138 knots. This may indicate a slight deviation from the optimal approach speed, but it did not appear to have a significant impact on the overall landing performance. The touchdown distance was good at 388 meters, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain control and touch down within a reasonable distance from the threshold.
However, the touchdown speed of 136 knots was a little fast, which may have contributed to a hard touchdown rate of -436 feet per minute (fpm). A hard touchdown rate can be a concern as it may put additional stress on the aircraft's landing gear and other components. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.7 meters from the centerline, which may require some adjustments to the aircraft's alignment during the rollout phase.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 21°C and a wind speed of 5 knots from 280°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the tailwind component was 4 knots. These conditions were likely to have contributed to a relatively smooth landing.
The total landing distance was 1,786 meters, which is 57% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain control and touch down within a reasonable distance from the threshold. The runway rollout alignment was reported as very good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain its alignment and direction during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some minor deviations from the optimal approach and touchdown speeds. However, the aircraft was able to maintain control and touch down within a reasonable distance from the threshold, and the rollout alignment was good.
