Landing on runway 16 at NZWN Wellington International Airport in the Airbus A321

Landing Score 94.67 %

Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 aircraft successfully landed at Wellington International Airport, achieving a score of 94.7%. The final approach to runway 16 was initiated from the north, with the aircraft heading 183.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,759 feet above ground level.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway, with a touchdown distance of 228 meters, which was considered good. However, the touchdown speed of 149 knots was slightly faster than the target speed, indicating that the pilot may have been able to maintain a more controlled descent. The touchdown rate was also very hard, at -566 feet per minute, which could have put additional stress on the aircraft's landing gear.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline, by 4.7 meters, which may have been due to the crosswind component of 11 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 19°C, with a wind speed of 16 knots at 230°. The crosswind and headwind components were both 11 knots, which may have contributed to the slight misalignment of the touchdown.

Despite the slight misalignment, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase. The total landing distance of 974 meters was 54% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight.

Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score of 94.7%. However, there were some areas for improvement, including the slightly fast touchdown speed and the hard touchdown rate.
