What went well

Touched down at -247 fpm — a soft arrival
1.28 G at touchdown — inside band
Lifted off at 170 kt — on the 150 kt target

What held you back

Arrival Landing — Flare profile at 0 %, Threshold height at 64 ft agl was above target at 80 %, −1.25 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown distance was 973 m at 0 %, Runway alignment max 7.60 m left at 83 %, −0.75 points
Arrival Rollout — Runway alignment max 7.09 m left at 85 %, −0.28 points

Next time

Departure

Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.

What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 6.8 m off the runway centreline.

Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.

See Departure Roll

Arrival

Keep the back pressure coming through the flare so the sink does not return at 125 fpm.

What happened: The flare arrested the sink, but then the sink returned before touchdown.

Watch for: Watch the VSI in the flare and keep arrested sink from returning before touchdown at 247 fpm.

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.

The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 0°C, with a wind speed of 4 knots at a direction of 90°. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 3 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile northeast of EDDC Dresden Airport and rising from an altitude of 1,677 feet above sea level to 30,009 feet above sea level, an increase of 28,332 feet in 16 minutes, covering a distance of 86 nautical miles.

Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, starting 1 mile west of Rehau, Germany, and lasting 16 minutes, covering a distance of 118 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting overhead Spraitbach, Germany, and descending from 30,003 feet above sea level to 13,201 feet above sea level, a decrease of 16,802 feet in 7 minutes, covering a distance of 47 nautical miles.

The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting overhead Bisingen, Germany, and lasting 2 minutes, covering a distance of 10 nautical miles. The enroute descent continued, starting 1 mile southwest of Deilingen, Germany, and descending from 12,704 feet above sea level to 2,760 feet above sea level, a decrease of 9,944 feet in 11 minutes, covering a distance of 40 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 14 at LSZH Zürich Airport was made from the northwest, with a heading of 137.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,347 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 14, which had a length of 3,138 meters. The threshold height was above the target, and the threshold speed was slightly above target at 146 knots.

The touchdown point was 561 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 130 knots and a touchdown rate of -167 feet per minute, both of which were good. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.6 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -1°C, with a wind speed of 2 knots at a direction of 238°, resulting in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 0 knots.

The total landing distance was 2,027 meters, which accounted for 65% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing to the parking area from the runway took 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

Landing on runway 14 at LSZH Zürich Airport in the Airbus A321neo
Landing Score 86.25 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 aircraft successfully landed at Zürich Airport (LSZH) on runway 14, achieving an overall score of 86.2%. The final approach was initiated from the north-west, heading 137.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,347 feet above ground level (agl).

The aircraft touched down on the runway, with a touchdown speed of 130 knots, which was within the acceptable range. The touchdown rate of -167 feet per minute (fpm) was also good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the threshold height at 64 feet agl was above the target, suggesting that the aircraft may have been slightly high on its approach.

The threshold speed was slightly above the target at 146 knots, which may have been due to the aircraft's speed being slightly higher than intended at the moment of touchdown. The touchdown point was 561 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively long distance, but not excessively so.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.6 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the aircraft's alignment during the final approach. However, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain its alignment and direction after touchdown.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -1°C and a wind speed of 2 knots from 238°. The crosswind component was 2 knots, while the headwind component was 0 knots. The total landing distance was 2,027 meters, which is 65% of the runway length. Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some minor deviations from the target parameters.
