The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 8,984 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,636 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft, an Airbus A321, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at KBOS Logan International Airport. This process took 7 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 04R, and the takeoff distance was 3,284 feet, which accounted for 43% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 160 knots.
As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 22°F and winds blowing at 7 knots from a direction of 350°. The crosswind was 3 knots, and the headwind was 6 knots. The enroute climb began overhead Winthrop, Massachusetts, and the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 991 feet above sea level to 36,012 feet, an increase of 35,021 feet, in 20 minutes while covering a distance of 124 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started overhead Winchester Center, Connecticut, and lasted for 395 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 614 nautical miles. The enroute descent began 2 miles northwest of the Oolenoy Valley Airport in Pickens, South Carolina, and the aircraft descended from 36,001 feet to 2,292 feet, a decrease of 33,710 feet, in 24 minutes while covering a distance of 123 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 26R at KATL Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport was made from the east, heading 270.0°, at an altitude of 4 nautical miles and 1,265 feet above ground level. The landing took place on runway 26R, which had a length of 8,984 feet. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was 140 knots. The touchdown point was 281 feet beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 135 knots, which was a little fast. However, the touchdown rate was good at -185 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 30°F and winds blowing at 5 knots from a direction of 310°. The crosswind was 3 knots, and the headwind was 4 knots. The total landing distance was 4,184 feet, which accounted for 47% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect. After landing, the aircraft taxiied to the parking area, which took 9 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 868 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 147 minutes. The aircraft used 13,390 pounds of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A321 successfully landed at Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport (KATL) on runway 26R, achieving a score of 99.8%. The aircraft approached the runway from the east, heading 270.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,265 feet above ground level (agl).
The final approach was executed smoothly, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 140 knots, which is within the acceptable range. However, the touchdown speed of 135 knots was slightly faster than the ideal speed, indicating that the pilots may have needed to apply a bit more braking during the landing roll.
The touchdown point was 281 feet beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The touchdown rate of -185 feet per minute (fpm) was good, indicating that the aircraft was able to absorb the impact of landing smoothly. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, suggesting that the pilots maintained a stable and aligned approach to the runway.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 30°F and a wind speed of 5 knots from 310°. The crosswind component was 3 knots, while the headwind component was 4 knots. These conditions were relatively calm, which likely contributed to the smooth landing.
The total landing distance of 4,184 feet was 47% of the runway length, which is a reasonable distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilots maintained control of the aircraft during the landing roll and were able to bring it to a stop safely and efficiently.
Overall, the landing was executed well, with only minor deviations from the ideal performance. The pilots demonstrated good control and decision-making skills, and the aircraft performed as expected under the given conditions.
