Top opportunity

Shorten the long landing

Arrival Touchdown

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

Airbus A321 approached runway 14 at LSZH Zürich Airport from the north-west on a final approach heading 138.0° at 4 nm and 1,189 ft agl, with temperature 26 °C, wind 4 kt from 280°, a 3 kt crosswind component and a 4 kt tailwind component.

The threshold height was good and the threshold speed was slightly above target at 141 kt.

Touchdown occurred 730 m beyond the touchdown zone; the aircraft’s speed at touchdown was 121 kt, rated good, and the vertical rate was minus 70 fpm, rated excellent, while runway touchdown alignment was perfect.

Total landing distance measured 2,302 m, representing 73 % of the 3,138 m runway, and rollout alignment was very good.

With a final score of 89.2 %, focus on achieving the target threshold speed and reducing the touchdown point offset to keep the landing within the designated zone, which will further optimise runway usage.
