Flight narrative

The flight began with the aircraft taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Birmingham International Airport, taking approximately 5 minutes and covering a distance of 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 33, with the aircraft lifting off at a speed of 158 knots after covering 60% of the runway's length, which was 1,388 meters.

As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions of 12 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 12 knots at 30 degrees. The crosswind was 11 knots, while the headwind was 5 knots. The enroute climb started shortly after, with the aircraft ascending from 1,328 feet above sea level to 5,846 feet above sea level, an increase of 4,518 feet in just 3 minutes, covering a distance of 6 nautical miles.

The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, flying overhead Fillongley in Warwickshire, England, and lasting for 2 minutes while covering 8 nautical miles. However, this was short-lived, as the aircraft soon began another climb phase, this time from 5,842 feet above sea level to 34,576 feet above sea level, an increase of 28,734 feet in 18 minutes, covering a distance of 116 nautical miles.

The aircraft continued on its journey, entering another level cruise phase, this time flying for 45 minutes while covering 327 nautical miles, 13 miles south east of Swanage in Dorset, England. However, the aircraft soon began its descent, starting 102 miles south west of Saint-Denis-d'Oleron in Nouvelle-Aquitaine, France, and descending from 35,068 feet above sea level to 9,254 feet above sea level, a decrease of 25,815 feet in 12 minutes, covering a distance of 75 nautical miles.

The aircraft then began another climb phase, this time from 9,227 feet above sea level to 9,884 feet above sea level, an increase of 657 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 8 nautical miles, 19 miles north of Noja in Cantabria, Spain. However, this was followed by another descent phase, starting 14 miles north east of Noja, and descending from 9,886 feet above sea level to 1,349 feet above sea level, a decrease of 8,537 feet in 8 minutes, covering a distance of 25 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 12 at Bilbao Airport took place from the west, with the aircraft heading 117.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,219 feet above ground level. The landing took place on runway 12, which was 2,130 meters long, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 128 knots, slightly faster than the threshold speed. The touchdown distance was 402 meters, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.2 meters from the centreline.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 14 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 6 knots at 192 degrees, with a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 1 knot. The total landing distance was 1,741 meters, which was 82% of the runway's length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, and the aircraft taxied to the parking area from the runway in 3 minutes, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

In total, the flight covered a distance of 574 nautical miles, taking 100 minutes and using 4,744 kilograms of fuel.

Landing report
Landing on runway 12 at LEBB Bilbao Airport in the Airbus A321neo
Landing Score 95.96 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 successfully landed at LEBB Bilbao Airport, achieving a score of 96.0%. The aircraft approached the runway from the west, heading 117.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,219 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with good control, and the aircraft landed safely on runway 12, which has a length of 2,130 meters.

The threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed of 134 knots was also within the acceptable range. However, the touchdown speed of 128 knots was slightly faster than desired, which may have contributed to a fair touchdown rate of -280 feet per minute (fpm). The touchdown distance of 402 meters was good, indicating that the aircraft was able to slow down effectively after touchdown.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 14°C and a wind speed of 6 knots from a direction of 192°. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 1 knot. Despite these conditions, the aircraft was able to maintain a stable approach and landing.

One area for improvement was the runway touchdown position, which was slightly misaligned by 3.2 meters from the centerline. However, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain control and stability after touchdown.

Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft was able to come to a stop within 82% of the runway length, covering a total distance of 1,741 meters. The score of 96.0% reflects the high level of proficiency demonstrated by the pilot during the landing.
