Landing on runway 23R at EGCC Manchester Airport in the Airbus A321

Landing Score 87.04 %

Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 23R at EGCC Manchester Airport from the north east, heading 231.0° at 4 nm and 1,322 ft above ground level (agl), was initiated with a satisfactory approach quality. However, the threshold height at 62 ft agl was above the target, indicating a slightly higher than ideal approach path angle. The threshold speed of 159 kt was also higher than the desired value, which may have contributed to the slightly above-target threshold height.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 138 m beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 145 kt, which was fast. The touchdown rate of -124 fpm was smooth, indicating a well-controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, with the aircraft centered on the runway. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 13 °C and a headwind of 34 kt, likely played a significant role in the approach and landing.

The total landing distance of 1,287 m was 53% of the runway length, which is within the acceptable range. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, with the aircraft maintaining its centerline alignment throughout the rollout phase. Overall, the landing performance was satisfactory, with a score of 87.0%. While there were some areas for improvement, such as the threshold speed and touchdown speed, the pilot demonstrated good control and precision during the approach and landing.
