Landing on runway 27L at EGLL London Heathrow Airport in the A21N

Landing Score 75.88 %

Landing Summary

The aircraft in question, an Airbus A321-253NX, successfully landed at London Heathrow Airport (EGLL) on runway 27L. The final approach was initiated from the east, heading 270.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,243 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's performance during the landing was evaluated, and it scored 75.9%.

The threshold height at 89 feet agl was significantly above the target, indicating that the aircraft may have been slightly high during the approach. However, the threshold speed of 135 knots was good, suggesting that the pilot maintained a suitable airspeed for the landing. The touchdown point was 785 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a significant deviation from the intended landing spot.

The touchdown speed of 119 knots was also good, and the touchdown rate of -80 feet per minute (fpm) was excellent, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 17.8 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a combination of factors including wind, pilot error, or aircraft performance.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 19°C and a wind speed of 7 knots from 249°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the headwind component was 7 knots, which may have contributed to the aircraft's misaligned touchdown.

The total landing distance of 1,839 meters was 55% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. However, the runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 15.5 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to the same factors that contributed to the initial touchdown misalignment.

Overall, while the aircraft's performance during the landing was good in some aspects, there were significant deviations from the intended landing spot and alignment. Further analysis and training may be necessary to improve the pilot's skills and reduce the risk of similar incidents in the future.
