Arrival
Start the flare with progressive back pressure and keep it coming until the sink is arrested.
What happened: The aircraft was flown onto the runway: the nose was barely raised and little of the sink was taken out, touching down at 279 fpm.
Watch for: Pitch attitude: rising steadily through the flare until the sink is checked.
See Arrival Landing
Ground control varies with speed, full authority at walking pace, progressively reducing as groundspeed rises. The aircraft becomes twitchy at any speed, every small pedal input swings the nose, which can encourage large-amplitude leg inputs that no real aircraft would accept.

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 1,861 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,861 m of the 2,494 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 488 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft, an Airbus A321, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport, which took 6 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 12, with the aircraft lifting off at a speed of 160 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were a temperature of 8 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 3 knots from a direction of 190 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 1 knot.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile south east of the airport and reaching an altitude of 6,011 feet above sea level, an increase of 4,673 feet in just 3 minutes, covering a distance of 12 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise then began 4 miles north east of Ripanj, lasting 3 minutes and covering 15 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb, this time from 6,021 feet to 21,010 feet, an increase of 14,990 feet in 9 minutes, covering a distance of 50 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise then resumed, starting 11 miles north east of Uzice and lasting 12 minutes, covering a distance of 94 nautical miles. As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent, starting 2 miles north east of Pristina and descending from 21,007 feet to 3,150 feet, a decrease of 17,858 feet in 9 minutes, covering a distance of 46 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 35 at Priština Adem Jashari International Airport was made from the south, with the aircraft heading 356.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,350 feet above ground level. The landing took place on a runway length of 2,494 meters, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 143 knots. However, the touchdown point was 86 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 139 knots, which was a little fast, and a touchdown rate of -205 feet per minute, which was fair.
The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 9.8 meters from the centreline, and the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 10.1 meters from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of -1 degree Celsius, with a wind speed of 0 knots from a direction of 360 degrees, resulting in no crosswind or headwind.
The total landing distance was 1,794 meters, which was 72% of the runway length. The taxiing to the parking area from the runway took 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 225 nautical miles, taking 46 minutes, and the aircraft used 2,452 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A321 aircraft successfully landed at Priština Adem Jashari International Airport, achieving a score of 95.8%. The final approach to runway 35 was initiated from the south, with a heading of 356.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,350 feet above ground level.
The aircraft touched down on the runway, with a threshold speed of 143 knots, which was considered good. However, the touchdown point was located 86 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed of 139 knots was slightly faster than ideal. The touchdown rate of -205 feet per minute was fair, indicating a relatively smooth landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -1°C and a wind speed of 0 knots from a direction of 360°. This resulted in a crosswind and headwind of 0 knots, making the landing conditions relatively calm.
The total landing distance of 1,794 meters was 72% of the available runway length, which is 2,494 meters. This indicates that the aircraft had sufficient runway remaining for a safe stop. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 9.8 meters from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 10.1 meters from the centerline.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score. However, there were some minor deviations from ideal landing parameters, including a slightly fast touchdown speed and misaligned touchdown and rollout positions.
