The flight began with the aircraft taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Hamburg Helmut Schmidt Airport, taking approximately 3 minutes to cover less than 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 23, with the aircraft lifting off at a speed of 172 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 24°C and a wind speed of 33 knots from a direction of 230°, resulting in a headwind of 33 knots.

As the aircraft climbed away from Hamburg, it began its enroute climb, starting approximately 1 mile northwest of the Hamburg-Nord area. The climb took place from an initial altitude of 1,048 feet above sea level to a maximum altitude of 35,454 feet, an increase of 34,407 feet in 22 minutes, covering a distance of 117 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise phase began approximately 1 mile west of Tweede Exloermond, Netherlands, and lasted for 27 minutes, covering a distance of 167 nautical miles.

The enroute descent phase started approximately 33 miles northwest of Westkapelle, Netherlands, and took place from an altitude of 35,443 feet to 6,949 feet, a decrease of 28,494 feet in 18 minutes, covering a distance of 94 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another enroute level cruise phase, this time overhead EGSG Stapleford Aerodrome Romford, England, lasting for 2 minutes and covering 6 nautical miles.

The final descent phase began overhead Becontree, Greater London, England, and took place from an altitude of 6,926 feet to 1,365 feet, a decrease of 5,561 feet in 6 minutes, covering a distance of 17 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 27L at London Heathrow Airport, approaching from the east at a heading of 270.0° and at an altitude of 1,279 feet above ground level.

However, the aircraft was required to execute a go-around at an altitude of 327 feet above ground level. The aircraft then landed on runway 27L, with the threshold height being well above the target and the threshold speed being slightly above the target at 145 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 440 meters, but the touchdown speed was fast at 143 knots, resulting in a very hard touchdown rate of -529 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 7.1 meters.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 18°C and a wind speed of 36 knots from a direction of 240°, resulting in a crosswind of 18 knots and a headwind of 31 knots. The total landing distance was 1,285 meters, which was 38% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, and the aircraft then taxied to the parking area, taking approximately 3 minutes to cover less than 1 nautical mile.

The total flight distance was 415 nautical miles, taking 97 minutes to complete, and the aircraft used 4,992 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 27L at EGLL London Heathrow Airport in the Airbus A321

Landing Score 86.34 %

Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 aircraft successfully landed on runway 27L at EGLL London Heathrow Airport, achieving an overall score of 86.4%. The final approach to the runway was initiated from the east, heading 270.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,279 feet above ground level (agl).

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway at a speed of 143 knots, which was slightly faster than the target speed. The touchdown distance of 440 meters was considered good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the touchdown rate of -529 feet per minute (fpm) was very hard, suggesting that the aircraft may have experienced a significant deceleration upon touchdown.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 7.1 meters, which may have been due to factors such as crosswind or pilot error. The local weather conditions at the time of landing included a temperature of 18°C, a wind speed of 36 knots from 240°, resulting in a crosswind of 18 knots and a headwind of 31 knots.

The total landing distance of 1,285 meters was 38% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft was able to stop within a reasonable distance. The runway rollout alignment was very good, suggesting that the aircraft was able to maintain a stable and controlled path after touchdown.

Overall, while the landing was not perfect, the Airbus A321 aircraft was able to safely touch down on the runway and come to a stop within a reasonable distance. However, the hard touchdown rate and slight misalignment from the centreline may indicate areas for improvement in the pilot's technique or the aircraft's performance.
