Next time

Departure

Ease the nose up sooner to lift off at 157 kt instead of letting speed build on the ground.

What happened: The aircraft lifted off at 174 kt, 17 kt above the target liftoff speed.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 157 kt at liftoff

See Departure Roll

Arrival

Stop the rotation once the sink is arrested at 0.4 ft, holding the normal landing attitude instead of continuing to pull back.

What happened: The flare pitch reached 3.7°, well above this type's ground attitude, and touchdown followed at a sink rate of 492 fpm. Over-rotating the flare like this usually carries through to a firm or hard touchdown.

Watch for: Attitude indicator: hold the normal landing attitude once sink is arrested at 0.4 ft.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

There are several things that can go wrong during the flare, carrying too much speed over the threshold, starting the flare at the wrong height and inconsistent flight control inputs, all contribute to a poor flare resulting in a hard touchdown or a float down the runway.

Flight narrative

The Airbus A321-ceo taxied from the parking area to runway 18 at Frankfurt-Egelsbach (EDDF) in 24 minutes, covering 4 nm on the ground.

During the departure roll on runway 18, the aircraft accelerated over a takeoff distance of 2,301 m, representing 58 % of the runway, and lifted off at 174 kt. Ambient conditions were 23 °C with a wind of 2 kt from 060°, a 2 kt crosswind component and a 1 kt tailwind component.

Climb commenced 2 nm west of Moerfelden-Walldorf, with the flight ascending from 1,358 ft asl to 35,374 ft asl, a gain of 34,015 ft achieved in 24 minutes while covering 169 nm.

The first cruise segment began 1 nm south-west of Strassberg and continued for 127 minutes, during which the aircraft travelled 934 nm at level altitude.

Descent started 8 nm south of Vaala Airfield (EFVL), with the aircraft descending from 35,341 ft asl to 10,824 ft asl, a loss of 24,517 ft in 13 minutes and a ground distance of 87 nm.

A brief cruise followed 12 nm east of Taivalkoski, lasting 2 minutes and covering 8 nm.

The second descent began 17 nm south of Kuusamo, with altitude decreasing from 10,385 ft asl to 2,170 ft asl, a reduction of 8,215 ft over 8 minutes and a distance of 33 nm.

On final approach to runway 12 at Kuusamo Airport (EFKS), the aircraft descended from 1,343 ft agl to 64 ft agl in 89 seconds and recorded a score on the stabilisation gates.

Landing on runway 12 was executed with a threshold speed of 143 kt; touchdown occurred 341 m down the runway at 140 kt, with a hard touchdown rate of minus 457 fpm and a lateral deviation of 4.2 m from the centreline. Local weather was 0 °C with a wind of 3 kt from 189°, a 2 kt crosswind and a 2 kt headwind. The total landing distance measured 1,144 m, equivalent to 45 % of the runway length, and rollout alignment was very good.

The rollout concluded with the aircraft remaining aligned on the runway before taxiing to the parking area, a ground movement that lasted 1 minute and covered less than 1 nm.

In total, the flight covered 1,243 nm, required 198 minutes of elapsed time, and consumed 9,341 kg of fuel.

Landing Summary

The Airbus A350-900 aircraft successfully landed at Halifax / Stanfield International Airport (CYHZ) on runway 32. The final approach was initiated from the southeast, heading 305.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,298 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated a high level of proficiency in its approach, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 129 knots, which is within the acceptable range.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's performance was satisfactory, with a touchdown distance of 284 meters, which is within the expected range for a runway of this length. However, the touchdown speed of 128 knots was slightly above the optimal range, indicating that the pilots may have been able to make adjustments to achieve a smoother touchdown. The touchdown rate of -333 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, suggesting that the aircraft's wheels made contact with the runway with a moderate amount of force.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 1°C and a wind speed of 7 knots from 270°. The crosswind component was 4 knots, while the headwind component was 5 knots. These conditions were favorable for the landing, and the aircraft's performance was not significantly affected by the wind.

The total landing distance of 1,093 meters was 47% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft was able to stop within a reasonable distance after touchdown. The runway rollout alignment was very good, suggesting that the pilots maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and were able to bring it to a stop in a straight line.

Overall, the landing of the Airbus A350-900 at CYHZ was a successful one, with the aircraft demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its approach and landing phases. The pilots' performance was satisfactory, and the aircraft's performance was consistent with expectations.
