Landing on runway 04L at LFMN Nice-Côte d'Azur Airport in the Airbus A321

Landing Score 96.99 %

Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 safely landed at LFMN Nice-Côte d'Azur Airport, demonstrating a high level of precision and control. The aircraft began its final approach to runway 04L coming from the southwest at a heading of 46.0° at an altitude of 1,274 feet (387 meters) above ground level (agl), located 4 nautical miles from the airport. As the aircraft descended onto the runway, it executed a smooth touchdown with an excellent touchdown rate of -93 feet per minute (fpm).

The touchdown speed of 134 knots was within acceptable limits, indicating a controlled descent and a good understanding of the airspeed necessary to ensure a safe landing. Additionally, the threshold speed of 142 knots was also satisfactory, demonstrating a smooth transition into the landing configuration. The touchdown point was 219 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which, although slightly outside the ideal position, still represents a successful landing execution considering the aircraft's size and weight.

The local weather conditions presented a slight challenge to the landing, with a crosswind of 5 knots from the side, effectively countered by a 5-knot headwind also from the side, which cancelled out the crosswind component. This neutralized crosswind resulted in a more stable and predictable approach path, contributing to the smooth execution of the landing. With a temperature of 24°C on the ground, the weather also presented an optimal condition for landing, with minimal factors to influence aircraft performance.

Upon touching down on the runway, the Airbus A321 showed a very good runway touchdown alignment and a very good runway rollout alignment. Its total landing distance covered a significant portion of the runway at 1,651 meters, which represented 64% of the available runway length. This demonstrates the pilots' mastery of airspeed management, altitude control, and landing technique. Overall, the successful landing of the Airbus A321 underscores the aircraft's capabilities and the pilots' high skills in executing precise approach and landing maneuvers.
