Departure Roll

A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. 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.

Flight narrative

The flight began with the Airbus A321 taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport, taking approximately 9 minutes to cover a distance of 3 nautical miles. The departure roll took place on runway 17, with the aircraft lifting off after a takeoff distance of 756 meters, which accounted for 31% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 150 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 19°C, with a wind speed of 2 knots at 300°.

As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb 1 mile south of Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport. The climb took place from an initial altitude of 1,839 feet above sea level to a maximum altitude of 33,753 feet, an increase of 31,914 feet in just 11 minutes, covering a distance of 106 nautical miles. The enroute climb phase was followed by a level cruise, which started 3 miles northeast of Heron Lake, Minnesota, and lasted for 49 minutes, covering a distance of 1,103 nautical miles.

The enroute descent phase began 10 miles northeast of Niland Airport in California, where the aircraft descended from a maximum altitude of 33,890 feet to an altitude of 1,510 feet, a decrease of 32,380 feet in 13 minutes, covering a distance of 115 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 27 at San Diego International Airport was made from the east, with the aircraft heading 286.0° at an altitude of 1,481 feet above ground level, 4 nautical miles from the runway.

The landing took place on runway 27, which had a length of 2,094 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 141 knots. However, the touchdown speed was a little fast at 132 knots, and the touchdown rate was fair at -202 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 16°C, with a wind speed of 2 knots at 300°.

The total landing distance was 1,485 meters, which accounted for 71% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking approximately 1 minute to cover a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,334 nautical miles, taking a total of 83 minutes, and the aircraft used 9,383 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 27 at KSAN San Diego International Airport in the Airbus A321neo
Landing Score 99.78 %
Landing Summary

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.
