The flight began with a departure roll from runway 11 at LDDU Dubrovnik Ruđer Bošković Airport. The Airbus A321 took off with a takeoff distance of 790 meters, which is 25% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 132 knots, indicating a smooth and controlled takeoff.

As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 17 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 8 knots at 270 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 4 knots and a tailwind of 7 knots. The aircraft climbed from 1,509 feet above sea level to 2,129 feet above sea level, an increase of 620 feet in just 2 minutes, while covering a distance of 2 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 29 at LDDU Dubrovnik Ruđer Bošković Airport was made from the south-east, heading 299.0 degrees at a distance of 2 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,453 feet above ground level. The landing was executed on a runway with a length of 3,142 meters, and the threshold height was good. However, the threshold speed was above the target speed at 138 knots.

The touchdown distance was good at 212 meters, but the touchdown speed was slightly too fast at 137 knots. The touchdown rate was fair at -276 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions during landing were a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 8 knots at 267 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 7 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,139 meters, which is 36% of the runway length. However, the runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 23.9 meters from the centerline. The taxiing to the parking from the runway took 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile.

The total flight distance was 5 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 6 minutes. The aircraft used 374 kilograms of fuel during the flight. Overall, the flight was executed smoothly, with good touchdown distance and alignment, but with some minor deviations in speed and rollout alignment.

Landing on runway 29 at LDDU Dubrovnik Ruđer Bošković Airport in the Airbus A321

Landing Score 84.76 %

Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 aircraft successfully landed at LDDU Dubrovnik Ruđer Bošković Airport, with a score of 84.8%. The final approach to runway 29 was initiated from the south east, heading 299.0° at 2 nautical miles and 1,453 feet above ground level. The aircraft touched down on the runway, which has a length of 3,142 meters.

The threshold height was reported as good, and the threshold speed was well above the target at 138 knots. However, the touchdown speed was slightly too fast at 137 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 212 meters, and the touchdown rate was fair at -276 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway during touchdown.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 15°C, with a wind speed of 8 knots from 267°. The crosswind component was 4 knots, while the headwind component was 7 knots. These conditions did not appear to have a significant impact on the landing.

The total landing distance was 1,139 meters, which is 36% of the runway length. However, the runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 23.9 meters from the centerline. This indicates that the aircraft may have drifted slightly off the centerline during the rollout phase, but it did not appear to have any significant impact on the overall landing performance.

Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some minor issues with the touchdown speed and runway rollout alignment. These issues can be addressed through further training and practice to improve the overall landing performance.
