Touchdown 1,215 ft in — inside the full-score zone
Threshold crossed at 32 ft and 145 kt — both inside band

What held you back

Arrival Touchdown — Landing Bounce at 80 %, −0.17 points
Departure Roll — Liftoff speed was 174 kt at 93 %, −0.09 points

Next time

Departure

Ease the nose up sooner to lift off at 157 kt instead of letting speed build on the ground.

What happened: The aircraft lifted off at 174 kt, 17 kt above the target liftoff speed.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 157 kt at liftoff

See Departure Roll

Ground effect becomes significant below about one wingspan of height. A Cessna 172, with a 36 ft span, enters ground effect at flare height - the float it feels in the hold-off is ground effect arriving on cue. An A320, with a span around 117 ft, has been in ground effect since before the threshold and there is no sudden cushion to feel, only a gradual reduction in induced drag that lengthens any float you allow.

Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 successfully landed at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (KDCA) on runway 01, achieving a score of 98.9%. The aircraft approached the runway from the south, heading 355.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,266 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot maintained a good threshold height, which is a critical aspect of a safe landing.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 146 knots, indicating a slight over-speed. However, the touchdown distance of 1,223 feet was within acceptable limits, and the aircraft came to rest on the runway in a relatively short distance. The touchdown speed of 137 knots was a little fast, but not excessively so, and the touchdown rate of -218 feet per minute (fpm) was fair.

One notable aspect of the landing was the slight misalignment of the runway touchdown position, which was 11 feet off the centerline. This may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's alignment or a minor issue with the aircraft's navigation system. However, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot was able to quickly regain control of the aircraft and bring it to a stop in a straight line.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 37°F and a wind speed of 2 knots from 180°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind component and a slight tailwind of 2 knots, which may have contributed to the slightly above-target threshold speed. Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated good control and judgment in bringing the aircraft to a safe stop on the runway.
