What went well

Touched down at -184 fpm — a soft arrival
Touchdown 1,572 ft in — inside the full-score zone
Threshold crossed at 44 ft and 140 kt — both inside band

What held you back

Enroute Climb — 250 kt exceeded below 10,000 ft; speed limits at 87 %, −0.22 points
Enroute Climb — 250 kt exceeded below 10,000 ft; speed limits at 88 %, −0.21 points
Departure Roll — Runway alignment max 17.6 ft left at 92 %, −0.11 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 18 ft off the runway centreline.

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

See Departure Roll

Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering it.

Landing on runway 17C at KDFW Dallas Fort Worth International Airport in the Airbus A321neo
Landing Score 99.6 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 successfully landed at KDFW Dallas Fort Worth International Airport on runway 17C, achieving a high score of 99.6%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north, heading 180.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,285 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with precision, and the aircraft landed smoothly on the runway.

The threshold height was good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct altitude as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 140 knots, which may have been due to the aircraft's descent rate or the pilot's decision to maintain a higher speed for a smoother landing. The touchdown point was 212 feet beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation.

The touchdown speed of 137 knots was a little fast, but the touchdown rate of -184 feet per minute (fpm) was good, indicating that the aircraft was able to absorb the impact of landing smoothly. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, which is a critical aspect of a safe and successful landing. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 59°F and a wind speed of 7 knots at 120°.

The crosswind component was 6 knots, while the headwind component was 3 knots, which may have contributed to the slightly higher threshold speed. The total landing distance was 4,715 feet, which is 35% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft was able to land smoothly and efficiently. The runway rollout alignment was very good, which is a testament to the pilot's skill and the aircraft's performance.

Overall, the landing was a success, with the aircraft landing smoothly and safely on the runway. The high score of 99.6% reflects the pilot's expertise and the aircraft's performance in executing a precise and controlled landing.
