Work on the flare

See Arrival Landing

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

Flight narrative

The flight began with the aircraft taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 8 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The Airbus A320 then departed from runway 22L at the Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport, with a takeoff distance of 4,463 feet, which was 39% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 157 knots.

As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions of a temperature of 37°F and a wind speed of 4 knots at 290°. The crosswind was 4 knots, and the headwind was 1 knot. After departing from Detroit, the aircraft began its enroute climb, which started overhead the airport and took the aircraft from an altitude of 1,657 feet above sea level to 23,940 feet above sea level, an increase of 22,283 feet in 12 minutes, covering a distance of 54 nautical miles.

The enroute climb was followed by a level cruise, which started 2 miles northwest of Spring Arbor, Michigan, and lasted for 10 minutes, covering a distance of 50 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 4 miles northeast of IN65 Wolfe Field Shipshewana, Indiana, and took the aircraft from an altitude of 23,744 feet above sea level to 6,507 feet above sea level, a decrease of 17,237 feet in 16 minutes, covering a distance of 73 nautical miles.

The enroute descent was followed by another level cruise, which started 1 mile east of Wheeler, Indiana, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 13 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, which started 1 mile south of the Gary Chicago International Airport and took the aircraft from an altitude of 5,686 feet above sea level to 1,900 feet above sea level, a decrease of 3,786 feet in 5 minutes, covering a distance of 14 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 31C at the Chicago Midway International Airport was made from the southeast, with a heading of 314.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,281 feet above ground level. The landing was made on the runway, which had a length of 5,363 feet. The threshold height was well above the target, but the threshold speed was good at 133 knots.

The touchdown point was 851 feet beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 121 knots, which was good. The touchdown rate was firm at -375 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 41 feet from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 34°F and a wind speed of 4 knots at 290°, with a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 4 knots.

The total landing distance was 4,248 feet, which was 79% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 37 feet from the centerline. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took 5 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 213 nautical miles, and the flight used 4,567 pounds of fuel.

Landing Summary

The Airbus A320 aircraft successfully landed on runway 31C at KMDW Chicago Midway International Airport, but with some notable deviations from the ideal landing parameters. The aircraft approached the runway from the southeast, heading 314.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,281 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed at a height well above the target threshold height of 77 feet agl, indicating a slightly higher-than-ideal approach.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was within the acceptable range at 121 kt, and the touchdown rate was firm at -375 fpm, which is a good indication of a controlled descent. However, the touchdown point was 851 feet beyond the touchdown zone, which may indicate a slightly longer-than-ideal landing distance. The threshold speed was good at 133 kt, suggesting that the aircraft was properly configured for landing.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 34°F and a wind speed of 4 kt at 290°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 kt, and the headwind component was 4 kt, which may have contributed to the slightly longer-than-ideal landing distance.

The total landing distance of 4,248 feet was 79% of the available runway length of 5,363 feet, which is within the acceptable range. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 41 feet from the centreline, and the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 37 feet from the centreline. These deviations from the ideal alignment may indicate a need for further training or adjustments to the aircraft's approach and landing procedures.

Overall, the landing was successful, but with some notable deviations from the ideal parameters. Further analysis and training may be necessary to improve the aircraft's approach and landing performance.
