Arrival Landing — Threshold speed at 123 kt was well below target, take care not to stall. at 57 %, Landing and flare profile at 81 %, −0.64 points
Departure Taxi — peak speed in a turn 19 kt at 78 %, −0.60 points

Top opportunity

Slow the descent speed

Enroute Descent

Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering it.

Landing Score 94.82 %
Landing Summary

Aer Lingus flight EI-NSD, an Airbus A321-251N, successfully landed at Princess Juliana International Airport (TNCM) with a score of 94.8%. The aircraft approached the runway from the west, heading 81.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,251 feet above ground level (agl).

The final approach to runway 10 was executed with precision, and the aircraft touched down on the runway with a good touchdown distance of 466 meters. The touchdown speed of 120 knots was also within the acceptable range, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the touchdown rate of -335 feet per minute (fpm) was slightly firm, suggesting that the pilots may have applied a bit more braking than necessary.

One notable aspect of the landing was the slight misalignment of the runway touchdown position, which was 5.2 meters off the centerline. This may have been due to a slight deviation in the aircraft's alignment during the final approach or a minor error in the pilots' navigation. Nevertheless, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilots were able to quickly regain control of the aircraft and align it with the runway centerline.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 30°C and a moderate wind of 12 knots at 50°. The crosswind component was relatively light at 6 knots, while the headwind component was 10 knots, which may have helped to reduce the aircraft's ground speed and make the landing more manageable.

Overall, the landing was executed with a high degree of precision and control, and the pilots were able to bring the aircraft to a safe stop within a relatively short distance of 1,256 meters, which is approximately 55% of the runway length.
