Work on the flare
Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,033 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 526 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Nuremberg Airport, taking 6 minutes and covering a distance of 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 10, with a takeoff distance of 1,153 meters, which was 43% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 149 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to a height of 30,013 feet, it encountered local weather conditions of 3°C temperature and a wind speed of 9 knots at 119 degrees. The crosswind was 3 knots, while the headwind was 8 knots. The enroute climb started over Nuremberg Airport and lasted for 13 minutes, covering a distance of 65 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, starting over Herbstadt, Germany, and lasting for 11 minutes. During this phase, the aircraft covered a distance of 80 nautical miles. The enroute descent phase began 3 miles west of Adelebsen, Germany, and lasted for 9 minutes, covering a distance of 58 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting 3 miles south-east of Husum, Germany, and lasting for 2 minutes. This phase covered a distance of 9 nautical miles. The enroute descent phase began 1 mile south-east of Heemsen, Germany, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 8 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting over Dorverden, Germany, and lasting for 3 minutes. This phase covered a distance of 14 nautical miles. The enroute descent phase began over Riede, Germany, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 13 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting over Prinzhofte, Germany, and lasting for 3 minutes. This phase covered a distance of 10 nautical miles. The enroute descent phase began 1 mile south-east of Hatten, Germany, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 8 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered a climb phase, starting 2 miles north of Ganderkesee, Germany, and lasting for 2 minutes. This phase covered a distance of 5 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting 1 mile north of Hatten, Germany, and lasting for 3 minutes. This phase covered a distance of 8 nautical miles.
The enroute descent phase began 2 miles east of Hatten, Germany, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 8 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 09 at Bremen Airport began from the west, with the aircraft heading at 88.0 degrees and at an altitude of 1,441 feet above ground level.
The landing took place on runway 09, with a runway length of 2,033 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was well above the target speed of 145 knots. The touchdown point was 102 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 127 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown rate was smooth at -148 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were -4°C temperature and a wind speed of 22 knots at 100 degrees. The crosswind was 5 knots, while the headwind was 21 knots. The total landing distance was 1,202 meters, which was 59% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was perfect.
The taxiing from the runway to the parking area took 5 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 294 nautical miles
The Airbus A321 successfully landed at EDDW Bremen Airport, achieving a high score of 98.8%. The aircraft approached the runway from the west, heading 88.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,441 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with precision, and the aircraft landed smoothly on runway 09, which has a length of 2,033 meters.
The threshold height was well within the acceptable range, and the threshold speed was significantly above the target speed of 145 knots. This indicates that the aircraft was able to maintain a safe and controlled descent throughout the approach. However, the touchdown point was 102 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which may be considered slightly off-center. The touchdown speed of 127 knots was also a bit faster than the target speed, but the touchdown rate of -148 feet per minute (fpm) was smooth and well-controlled.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -4°C and a wind speed of 22 knots from a direction of 100°. This resulted in a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 21 knots, which the aircraft was able to handle effectively. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown.
The total landing distance of 1,202 meters was 59% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain a stable and controlled roll-out after touchdown. Overall, the landing was executed with precision and control, and the aircraft was able to safely and smoothly come to a stop on the runway.
