What went well

Touched down at -99 fpm — a soft arrival
Threshold crossed at 31 ft and 141 kt — both inside band
Straight touchdown — 1.74 m off the centreline, no bounce

What held you back

Arrival Landing — Flare profile at 76 %, −0.25 points
Arrival Rollout — Runway alignment max 5.07 m at 93 %, −0.14 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown distance was 632 m at 81 %, −0.12 points

Top opportunity

Work on the flare

Arrival Landing

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

The flight took off from Zürich Airport, departing from runway 28. The aircraft, an Airbus A321, rolled down the runway and took off into the air, reaching a liftoff speed of 160 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius, with a wind blowing at 7 knots from a direction of 280 degrees. This resulted in a slight headwind of 7 knots and no crosswind.

After taking off, the aircraft climbed to a height of 31,034 feet above sea level. The climb took 18 minutes to complete, during which time the aircraft covered a distance of 113 nautical miles. The climb started over the town of Rumlang in the Kanton Zurich region of Switzerland, and the aircraft leveled off in a cruise mode at an altitude of 31,034 feet. The cruise phase lasted for 17 minutes, during which the aircraft traveled a further 119 nautical miles.

However, this cruise phase was not continuous. Instead, the aircraft began its descent about 7 miles southwest of San Damiano Macra in the Piemonte region of Italy. The descent took 17 minutes, during which the aircraft decreased its altitude from 30,370 feet to 4,054 feet above sea level, covering a distance of 61 nautical miles.

After completing the descent, the aircraft engaged in another level cruise phase. This time, it started 11 miles southeast of Antibes in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region of France and lasted for 3 minutes, during which the aircraft traveled a further 12 nautical miles.

The final cruise phase gave way to a descent about 2 miles south of the city of Cannes in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region. The descent was steep, with the aircraft decreasing its altitude from 4,017 feet to 1,293 feet above sea level in just 3 minutes, covering a distance of 8 nautical miles.

The final approach to Nice-Côte d'Azur Airport was made from the south-west, with the aircraft heading towards runway 04L. The approach was made at an altitude of 4 nautical miles and 1,274 feet above ground level. The aircraft touched down on the runway, which had a length of 2,561 meters, and landed with a touchdown speed of 134 knots.

The landing was smooth, with the aircraft touching down 219 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown rate was excellent, at a rate of -93 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 24 degrees Celsius, with a wind blowing at 7 knots from a direction of 90 degrees.

After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, where it took 2 minutes to cover a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 321 nautical miles, and the total fuel consumption was 3,459 kilograms, with the flight taking a total of 69 minutes to complete.

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.
