This flight was conducted using an Airbus A321 aircraft. The enroute climb initiated from a position approximately one mile southwest of Meerbusch, located in the state of Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany. The initial altitude during the climb was 1,467 feet above sea level, which eventually increased to 1,234 feet asl, resulting in a net gain of 233 feet in a mere minutes. During the climb, the aircraft traveled a distance of less than one nautical mile.
Once the climb phase had concluded, the aircraft commenced its final approach to runway 05R at Düsseldorf Airport, situated at EDDL. The aircraft approached from the southwest, tracking a heading of 233.0 degrees, at an altitude of 1,099 feet above ground level. The aircraft was also about three nautical miles from the runway threshold at this point.
Subsequently, a go-around procedure was initiated from the approach to runway 05R. The aircraft was flying at an altitude of 1,393 feet asl during the go-around phase. Following this, the aircraft successfully completed a landing on the designated runway, which measured 2,395 meters in length. The threshold height of the runway provided a suitable condition for landing. Additionally, the threshold speed of 123 knots, which was slightly above the target speed, indicated a smooth landing process.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft had a speed of 117 knots, marking a satisfactory touchdown rate. Moreover, the touchdown rate measured at -144 feet per minute (fpm) further demonstrated the precision of the landing. The runway touchdown alignment of the aircraft was found to be perfect. The prevailing weather conditions during the flight included a temperature of 17 degrees Celsius, with wind speed registered at 4 knots from a direction of 343 degrees.
The crosswind during the landing had a speed of 4 knots, while the headwind was measured at 1 knot. As a result, the overall touchdown distance was recorded at 447 meters, which indicated a well-executed landing process. Following the touchdown, the aircraft continued to roll along the runway, displaying perfect alignment. The total landing distance measured 1,288 meters, accounting for approximately 54% of the runway length.
Finally, the aircraft concluded the flight having traveled a total distance of 6 nautical miles in approximately 4 minutes. It is also reported that the aircraft utilized approximately 9,095 kilograms of fuel throughout the flight.

The Airbus A321 performed an impressive landing at EDDL Düsseldorf Airport, with a final approach score of 99.9%. The aircraft began its descent from a height of 1,099 feet above ground level (agl) at a distance of 3 nautical miles (nm) from the runway, heading 233.0° from a south-westerly direction.
During the final approach, the pilot maintained good spatial awareness, ensuring a smooth landing with a threshold height that met the required standards. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the targeted speed of 122 knots (kt), indicating a brief moment of heightened tension for the pilots as they adjusted their approach to meet the ideal landing conditions.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft exhibited a satisfactory touch down speed of 117 kt, which was well within the acceptable limits. The touch down distance of 447 meters was also within the desired parameters. The overall touch down rate of -144 feet per minute (fpm) was impressive, showcasing the pilot's skill and control during the landing process.
The landing site proved to be ideal, with a good threshold height and a runway length of 2,395 meters, more than sufficient for the Airbus A321 to safely operate. Additionally, the local weather conditions were favorable, with a moderate temperature of 17 °C, an almost negligible headwind of 1 kt, and a crosswind of a mere 4 kt. The overall local wind conditions were manageable, allowing the pilots to maintain complete control over the aircraft's descent.
Ultimately, the total landing distance of 1,288 meters, which accounted for just 54% of the runway's length, was a testament to the pilots' exceptional airmanship and control. The runway touchdown alignment was flawless, and during the rollout, the aircraft maintained perfect alignment, leaving no room for doubt about the overall performance of this particular landing.
