What went well

Touched down at -291 fpm — a soft arrival
Threshold crossed at 44 ft and 136 kt — both inside band
Straight touchdown — 2.28 m off the centreline, no bounce

What held you back

Arrival Landing — Flare profile at 59 %, −0.43 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown distance was 726 m at 71 %, −0.24 points
Arrival Rollout — Runway alignment max 4.60 m left at 94 %, −0.11 points

Next time

Work on the flare

See Arrival Landing

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 a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 5 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, an Airbus A321, then departed from runway 33 at EGBB Birmingham International Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,024 meters, which accounted for 44% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 141 knots.

As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 22 degrees Celsius and wind blowing at 18 knots from a direction of 269 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 15 knots and a headwind of 10 knots. The enroute climb started 1 mile west of Chelmsley Wood, Solihull, England, where the aircraft climbed from 1,344 feet above sea level to 5,734 feet above sea level, an increase of 4,390 feet in 2 minutes, covering 4 nautical miles.

The enroute level cruise then began 1 mile west of Nether Whitacre, Warwickshire, England, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering 16 nautical miles. The aircraft then started another enroute climb overhead Frankton, Warwickshire, England, where it climbed from 6,475 feet above sea level to 31,777 feet above sea level, an increase of 25,302 feet in 14 minutes, covering 91 nautical miles.

The enroute level cruise continued 1 mile east of Wetheringsett, Suffolk, England, and lasted for 20 minutes, covering 149 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent overhead Huizen, Provincie Noord-Holland, The Netherlands, where it descended from 32,147 feet above sea level to 1,435 feet above sea level, a decrease of 30,712 feet in 21 minutes, covering 83 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 23L at EDDL Düsseldorf Airport was from the north-east, heading 233.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,297 feet above ground level. However, the aircraft performed a go-around at 16 feet above ground level. The landing was eventually made on runway 23L, which had a length of 2,395 meters. The threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 137 knots.

The touchdown point was 307 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 133 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown rate was fair at -266 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 22 degrees Celsius and wind blowing at 15 knots from a direction of 180 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 12 knots and a headwind of 9 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,630 meters, which accounted for 68% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 359 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 82 minutes, using 3,831 kilograms of fuel.
