Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

The enroute climb started 1 mile west of Lennox, California, and reached an altitude of 36,190 feet above sea level, an increase of 35,050 feet from the initial altitude of 1,140 feet. This climb took 22 minutes and covered a distance of 149 nautical miles.

The aircraft then entered a level cruise, starting 8 miles south of Desert Center, California, and lasting 78 minutes. During this period, the aircraft covered a distance of 619 nautical miles. The enroute descent started 12 miles southeast of Pecos, Texas, and descended from 36,474 feet to 15,248 feet, a decrease of 21,226 feet, in 11 minutes and covering 77 nautical miles.

The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 3 miles southwest of Sheffield, Texas, and lasting 3 minutes, covering 18 nautical miles. The enroute descent started 10 miles north of Comfort, Texas, and descended from 14,552 feet to 4,292 feet, a decrease of 10,261 feet, in 9 minutes and covering 43 nautical miles.

The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 14 miles southeast of Ozona, Texas, and lasting 34 minutes, covering 128 nautical miles. The enroute descent started 3 miles northwest of Leon Valley, Texas, and descended from 4,202 feet to 2,664 feet, a decrease of 1,538 feet, in 2 minutes and covering 4 nautical miles.

The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting overhead Leon Valley, Texas, and lasting 4 minutes, covering 5 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 04 at San Antonio International Airport (KSAT) took place from the southwest, heading 41.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,289 feet above ground level.

The landing on runway 04 at KSAT took place with a runway length of 2,596 meters. The threshold height was above the target, but the threshold speed was good at 136 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 362 meters, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 135 knots. The touchdown rate was heavy at -658 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.1 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 28°C temperature and a wind speed of 7 knots at 110°, with a crosswind of 7 knots and a headwind of 2 knots.

The total flight distance was 1,052 nautical miles, taking approximately 170 minutes, and the aircraft used 8,083 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing report
Landing on runway 04 at KSAT San Antonio International Airport in the Airbus A321
Landing Score 89.18 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 aircraft successfully landed on runway 04 at San Antonio International Airport (KSAT) with a score of 89.2%. The final approach was initiated from the southwest, heading 41.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,289 feet above ground level (agl).

The aircraft's approach to the runway was generally good, with a threshold height above the target at 67 feet agl. However, the touchdown speed of 135 knots was slightly faster than desired, indicating that the pilots may have needed to apply more braking or reverse thrust to slow the aircraft down more quickly. The touchdown distance of 362 meters was within acceptable limits, suggesting that the pilots had sufficient control over the aircraft's descent.

One area for improvement was the touchdown rate, which was heavy at -658 feet per minute (fpm). This indicates that the aircraft touched down with a significant amount of force, which could potentially lead to a bumpy ride for passengers and potentially cause damage to the aircraft's landing gear. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.1 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilots' approach path.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 28°C and a wind speed of 7 knots at 110°. The crosswind component was 7 knots, while the headwind component was 2 knots. These conditions were relatively calm, which should have made the landing easier for the pilots. Overall, while there were some areas for improvement, the pilots demonstrated good control and precision during the landing, resulting in a successful touchdown on runway 04.
