Landing on runway 08R at EGKK London Gatwick Airport in the Airbus A321

Landing Score 93.64 %

Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 aircraft successfully landed at London Gatwick Airport (EGKK) on runway 08R, achieving a score of 93.6%. The final approach was initiated from the west, heading 77.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,313 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft successfully touched down on the runway, with a touchdown speed of 126 knots, which was within the acceptable range.

The threshold height at 72 feet agl was slightly above the target, but the threshold speed of 130 knots was satisfactory. The touchdown point was 66 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which indicates a slight deviation from the intended landing spot. The touchdown rate of -234 feet per minute (fpm) was considered fair, suggesting that the aircraft could have been brought down more smoothly.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 6°C, with a wind speed of 25 knots from a direction of 320°. This resulted in a crosswind of 22 knots and a tailwind of 11 knots. Despite these challenging conditions, the pilot successfully managed the aircraft's descent and landing.

The total landing distance of 1,626 meters was 65% of the available runway length, indicating that the aircraft had sufficient space to come to a stop. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.9 meters from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was also slightly off by 9.1 meters from the centerline. These minor deviations suggest that the pilot may have needed to make some adjustments during the landing roll to maintain control of the aircraft.

Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft coming to a stop within a reasonable distance from the runway threshold. While there were some minor deviations from the intended landing spot and rollout alignment, the pilot's skills and experience were able to mitigate these issues, resulting in a safe and controlled landing.
