The Airbus A321 successfully landed at San Diego International Airport (KSAN) on runway 27, achieving a score of 99.8%. The aircraft approached the runway from the east, heading 286.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,481 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot maintained a good threshold height, which is a crucial aspect of a safe landing.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold speed was recorded at 141 knots, which is within the acceptable range. However, the touchdown speed of 132 knots was slightly higher than the ideal speed, indicating that the pilot may have applied a bit more braking than necessary. The touchdown rate of -202 feet per minute (fpm) was considered fair, suggesting that the aircraft's descent was not excessively steep.
The landing distance of 1,485 meters was 71% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. This indicates that the pilot executed a smooth and controlled approach, taking into account the wind conditions and the aircraft's performance characteristics.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 16°C and a gentle headwind of 2 knots from 300°. The crosswind component was negligible, at 0 knots. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control of the aircraft during the critical phase of landing.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the pilot demonstrating good judgment and control throughout the approach and touchdown phases. However, there is room for improvement in terms of touchdown speed and landing distance, which can be addressed through further training and practice.
