Landing on runway 05 at LPMA Madeira International Airport Cristiano Ronaldo in the Airbus A321

Landing Score 92.89 %

Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 successfully landed at LPMA Madeira International Airport Cristiano Ronaldo, achieving a score of 92.9%. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the southwest, heading 43.0° at an altitude of 851 feet above ground level (agl) and 2 nautical miles from the runway. The final approach was made to runway 05, which has a length of 2,483 meters.

Upon reaching the threshold, the aircraft was slightly above the target height at 59 feet agl, but the threshold speed was well above the target at 154 knots. This indicates that the aircraft was descending at a faster rate than intended, but still maintained a safe speed. The touchdown point was 361 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which suggests that the aircraft may have been slightly long on the landing.

The touchdown speed of 137 knots was a little fast, but the touchdown rate of -217 feet per minute (fpm) was considered fair. This indicates that the aircraft was able to slow down relatively quickly after touchdown. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, which suggests that the aircraft was aligned with the runway centerline during the landing.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 18°C and a wind speed of 6 knots from 9°. The crosswind component was 3 knots, while the headwind component was 5 knots. These conditions would have made the landing relatively straightforward.

The total landing distance was 1,370 meters, which is 55% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft was able to slow down quickly after touchdown. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, suggesting that the aircraft was able to maintain a stable alignment during the rollout phase.

Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score of 92.9%. The slight deviations from the target height and speed were not significant enough to impact the overall performance of the landing.
