Two stabilised approach gates, each with five checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,553 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,553 m of the 3,590 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 512 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
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 27L at London Heathrow Airport (EGLL). The takeoff distance was 1,544 meters, which accounted for 46% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 161 knots.
As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions of 10°C temperature and a wind speed of 12 knots at 269 degrees. The crosswind was negligible, but the headwind was 12 knots. The enroute climb began approximately 1 mile south of Harmondsworth, Greater London, England, and involved a significant ascent from 1,174 feet above sea level to 39,019 feet above sea level, an increase of 37,845 feet in 23 minutes, covering a distance of 151 nautical miles.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 39 miles northwest of Nieuw-Haamstede, Provincie Zeeland, The Netherlands. This phase lasted for 27 minutes and covered a distance of 227 nautical miles. The enroute descent began 2 miles north of Schieder-Schwalenberg, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany, and involved a descent from 39,036 feet above sea level to 1,804 feet above sea level, a decrease of 37,232 feet in 19 minutes, covering a distance of 117 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 08L at Leipzig/Halle Airport (EDDP) was made from the west, heading 86.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,350 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 08L, which had a length of 3,590 meters, was successful, with the threshold height being slightly above target and the threshold speed being good at 131 knots. The touchdown point was 92 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 123 knots and a smooth touchdown rate of -134 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.9 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were -1°C temperature and a wind speed of 4 knots at 130 degrees, with a negligible crosswind and headwind. The total landing distance was 1,468 meters, accounting for 41% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 10 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The total flight distance was 505 nautical miles, taking 88 minutes, and the aircraft used 3,674 kilograms of fuel.
The Airbus A321 successfully landed at EDDP Leipzig/Halle Airport, achieving a score of 97.1%. The aircraft approached the runway from the west, heading 86.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,350 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was made to runway 08L, which has a length of 3,590 meters.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down slightly beyond the touchdown zone, 92 meters past the designated area. The touchdown speed of 123 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -134 feet per minute (fpm) was smooth, indicating a controlled descent. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 4.9 meters.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -1°C and a wind speed of 4 knots from a direction of 130°. The crosswind component was 3 knots, while the headwind component was also 3 knots. These conditions did not appear to significantly impact the landing.
The total landing distance of 1,468 meters was 41% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively, allowing for a controlled deceleration.
Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft touching down smoothly and coming to a stop within a reasonable distance. The slight misalignment from the centerline and the touchdown point being beyond the designated area were minor issues, but the overall performance of the aircraft was impressive, given the challenging weather conditions.
