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 6.7 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 168 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 364 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

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.

Flight narrative

KLAX Los Angeles International Airport served as the departure point for the Airbus A321 as it began its journey to KMSP Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport. Taxiing from the parking area to the runway took 12 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft then rolled down runway 06R, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 165 knots in 2,035 meters, which was 70% of the runway's length.

As the aircraft climbed to its initial cruising altitude, it began its ascent from 828 feet above sea level, gradually increasing to 35,011 feet in 23 minutes, covering a distance of 144 nautical miles. The climb was characterized by a series of level cruises, with the aircraft maintaining a steady altitude before resuming its ascent. The most notable of these level cruises occurred 12 miles northwest of Baker, California, where the aircraft remained at 35,226 feet for 2 minutes, covering 13 nautical miles. The aircraft continued to cruise at various altitudes, with a notable level cruise lasting 130 minutes and covering 1,068 nautical miles.

As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its descent from 35,986 feet above sea level, gradually decreasing to 3,008 feet in 19 minutes, covering 124 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 30L at KMSP Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport was from the southeast, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 302.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,405 feet above ground level. The landing was completed with a touchdown speed of 128 knots and a touchdown rate of -233 feet per minute, although the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.5 meters from the centerline. The total landing distance was 1,587 meters, or 52% of the runway's length. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking 5 minutes to cover a distance of 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,385 nautical miles, with a flight time of 195 minutes and a fuel consumption of 8,172 kilograms.

Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 30L at KMSP Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport was initiated from the south east, heading 302.0° at 4 nm and 1,405 ft above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a threshold height of 61 ft above ground level, which was above the target. The threshold speed of 142 kt was slightly above the target, indicating a slight increase in power application during the approach.

The aircraft touched down 312 m beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 128 kt, which was within the acceptable range. However, the touchdown rate of -233 fpm was fair, indicating a slightly higher than ideal rate of descent. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.5 m from the centreline, which may have contributed to the subsequent rollout alignment issues. Local weather conditions, with a temperature of 0 °C and wind at 15 kt from 350°, resulted in a crosswind of 11 kt and a headwind of 10 kt.

The total landing distance of 1,587 m was 52% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 17.6 m from the centreline, which may have been a result of the initial touchdown position. Overall, the landing performance scored 85.0%, reflecting a satisfactory but not exceptional performance.
