What went well

Touched down at -292 fpm — a soft arrival
Straight touchdown — 2.48 m off the centreline, no bounce
1.25 G at touchdown — inside band

What held you back

Arrival Landing — Landing and flare profile at 0 %, −1.81 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown distance was 771 m at 66 %, −0.29 points
Enroute Level — Average altitude 2,283 ft asl at 90 %, −0.26 points

Top opportunity

Work on the flare

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 10 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, an Airbus A321, then departed from runway 23L at Auckland International Airport (NZAA). The takeoff distance was 1,502 meters, which accounted for 46% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 160 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 22°C and a wind speed of 9 knots from a direction of 205°.

The crosswind component was 6 knots, while the headwind component was also 6 knots. As the aircraft took off, it began its enroute climb, which started 1 mile southwest of NZAA. The climb was from an altitude of 1,032 feet above sea level to 5,971 feet above sea level, an increase of 4,939 feet in just 3 minutes, covering a distance of 12 nautical miles.

Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which began 11 miles southwest of Titirangi and lasted for 6 minutes. During this period, the aircraft covered a distance of 23 nautical miles. The enroute descent phase started 4 miles southeast of Drury Airfield (NZDY) and involved a descent from 5,598 feet above sea level to 2,987 feet above sea level, a decrease of 2,611 feet in 4 minutes, covering a distance of 10 nautical miles.

The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 6 miles northeast of Ardmore Airport (NZAR) and lasted for 4 minutes, covering a distance of 10 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 23L at NZAA was made from the east, with the aircraft heading 251.0° at an altitude of 1,288 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway.

The landing was made on runway 23L, which had a length of 3,285 meters. The threshold height at 88 feet above ground level was significantly above the target, but the threshold speed was good at 140 knots. The touchdown point was 354 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 135 knots, which was good. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -292 feet per minute.

The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the runway rollout alignment was also very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 20°C and a wind speed of 10 knots from a direction of 220°, with a crosswind component of 5 knots and a headwind component of 9 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,414 meters, which accounted for 43% of the runway. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 64 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 31 minutes. The aircraft used 1,249 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing Score 86.8 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 aircraft successfully landed on runway 23L at Auckland International Airport (NZAA) with a score of 86.8%. The final approach was initiated from the east, heading 251.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,288 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach to the runway was precise, with a good threshold speed of 140 knots.

However, there was a notable discrepancy in the threshold height, which was significantly above the target height of 88 feet agl. Despite this, the aircraft's touchdown speed of 135 knots was within the acceptable range, indicating a well-executed landing. The touchdown point was 354 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 20°C and a moderate headwind of 9 knots. The crosswind component was relatively light at 5 knots, which made the landing process smoother. The aircraft's runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating a high degree of precision in the pilot's control.

The total landing distance of 1,414 meters was 43% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating a smooth and controlled deceleration of the aircraft after touchdown. Overall, the landing was successful, but the discrepancy in threshold height and the slightly higher-than-ideal touchdown rate of -292 feet per minute (fpm) prevented the aircraft from achieving a perfect score.
