Next time

Departure

Use coordinated aileron input to level the wings and hold bank angle close to wings-level during the climb.

What happened: During the initial climb, your average bank angle drifted to 2.5°.

Watch for: Attitude indicator, bank angle near wings-level

See Departure Climb 1

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

Flight narrative

The flight began with the aircraft, an Airbus A321, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at London Heathrow Airport (EGLL). This process took 9 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then departed from runway 27R, with a takeoff distance of 1,414 meters, which was 39% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 166 knots.

As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions of 18°C temperature and a wind speed of 15 knots at 240 degrees. The crosswind component was 7 knots, while the headwind component was 13 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting overhead Colnbrook, a town in Slough, England. During this climb, the aircraft ascended from 1,089 feet above sea level to 5,980 feet above sea level, an increase of 4,891 feet, in just 3 minutes and covering a distance of 10 nautical miles.

The enroute level cruise started 1 mile east of Cobham, a town in Surrey, England, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 8 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb, this time starting overhead Coulsdon, a town in Greater London, England. During this climb, the aircraft ascended from 5,998 feet above sea level to 32,559 feet above sea level, an increase of 26,562 feet, in 18 minutes and covering a distance of 127 nautical miles.

The enroute level cruise started 1 mile north of Ardooie, a town in Flanders, Belgium, and lasted for 7 minutes, covering a distance of 57 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 2 miles south of Grez-Doiceau, a town in Wallonia, Belgium. During this descent, the aircraft descended from 32,598 feet above sea level to 1,516 feet above sea level, a decrease of 31,082 feet, in 22 minutes and covering a distance of 91 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 13L at Cologne Bonn Airport (EDDK) was made from the north-west, with a heading of 137.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,256 feet above ground level. The aircraft landed on runway 13L, which had a length of 3,807 meters. The threshold height was slightly above the target, and the threshold speed was also slightly above the target at 141 knots.

The touchdown distance was good at 449 meters, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 137 knots. The touchdown rate was firm at -344 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.7 meters from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 16°C temperature and a wind speed of 9 knots at 130 degrees, with a crosswind component of 1 knot and a headwind component of 9 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,440 meters, which was 38% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The aircraft then taxiied to the parking area from the runway, taking 4 minutes and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

Landing on runway 13L at EDDK Cologne Bonn Airport in the Airbus A321neo
Landing Score 94.29 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 successfully landed on runway 13L at EDDK Cologne Bonn Airport, achieving a score of 94.3%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north-west, heading 137.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,256 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was conducted with a slight deviation in threshold height, being above the target at 60 feet agl.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was slightly above the target at 141 knots, resulting in a touchdown speed of 137 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown distance was good, measuring 449 meters, and the touchdown rate was firm at -344 feet per minute (fpm). However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.7 meters from the centreline.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 16°C and a wind speed of 9 knots from a direction of 130°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 9 knots. These conditions likely contributed to the aircraft's ability to maintain a stable approach and touchdown.

The total landing distance was 1,440 meters, which accounted for 38% of the runway length. Notably, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft's brakes were effectively applied to bring the aircraft to a stop. Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score despite some minor deviations from the target parameters.
