Top opportunity

Smooth the climb

Departure Climb 3

A good takeoff has a defined shape. It also has a defined end. For an airliner that's thrust reduction and acceleration, commonly somewhere around 1,000 to 1,500 ft above the airfield depending on the operator, while for a light aircraft it's established at Vy with the flaps on schedule. Most simmers have no defined end to their takeoff, which is exactly why it never gets judged.

Landing Summary

The aircraft in question, an A321-253NX, successfully landed at Shannon Airport (EINN) on runway 24. The final approach was initiated from the north-east, heading 230.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,281 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated a high level of proficiency in its approach, with a score of 98.0%.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 134 knots, which was within the acceptable threshold speed. The touchdown distance of 227 meters was also satisfactory, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown speed of 132 knots was within the desired range, further emphasizing the pilot's skill in managing the aircraft's speed during the landing.

However, the touchdown rate of -242 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, suggesting that the aircraft may have experienced a slight bounce or oscillation upon touchdown. This could be attributed to various factors, including the aircraft's weight, the runway's surface, or the pilot's technique. Despite this, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was well-centered on the runway.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 17°C and a wind speed of 10 knots from 249°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the headwind component was 10 knots, which helped to reduce the aircraft's ground speed and make the landing more manageable.

The total landing distance of 1,512 meters was 50% of the runway length, which is a reasonable distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and avoided any deviations from the centerline.

Overall, the landing was a success, with the aircraft demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its approach and landing. However, the fair touchdown rate and slight deviation from the desired touchdown speed suggest that there is room for improvement in the pilot's technique.
