Arrival Rollout — Runway alignment max 8.44 m left at 80 %, −0.37 points

Next time

Arrival

Fly the flare as one continuous check of the sink rate from 26 ft, holding back pressure steadily rather than adjusting pitch piecemeal.

What happened: The flare drifted away from its intended profile rather than tracking it smoothly from 26 ft down to touchdown.

Watch for: Watch radio altitude and VSI through the flare, aiming to arrest the sink smoothly from 26 ft to touchdown.

See Arrival Landing

Ground effect becomes significant below about one wingspan of height. A Cessna 172, with a 36 ft span, enters ground effect at flare height - the float it feels in the hold-off is ground effect arriving on cue. An A320, with a span around 117 ft, has been in ground effect since before the threshold and there is no sudden cushion to feel, only a gradual reduction in induced drag that lengthens any float you allow.

Landing Score 92.92 %
Landing Summary

The aircraft touched down on runway 34 at EICK Cork Airport, a 2,119-meter-long runway, with a threshold height that was well within acceptable limits. The approach quality was good, with a heading of 338.0° from 4 nautical miles away at 1,337 feet above ground level. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target, reaching 143 knots, and the touchdown speed was a little fast at 137 knots. The touchdown point was 216 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which was a minor deviation from the ideal landing spot.

The aircraft's descent and touchdown characteristics were fair, with a touchdown rate of -241 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating a high degree of control and precision during the final stages of the approach. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 2°C and a wind of 14 knots at 240°, contributed to a relatively straightforward landing. The crosswind component was 14 knots, while the tailwind component was minimal at 2 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,500 meters, which represented 71% of the runway length. While this was a respectable performance, the rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.4 meters from the centreline. Overall, the landing was considered to be of a high standard, with a score of 93.3% reflecting the aircraft's good approach quality, controlled touchdown, and relatively short landing distance.
