Work on the flare
Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with five checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,745 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,745 m of the 2,692 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 454 m touchdown sits inside 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 16 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, an Airbus A321, then departed from runway 24R at LEBL Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport in Barcelona, Spain. The takeoff distance was 1,819 meters, which accounted for 62% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 167 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of 12°C, with a wind speed of 10 knots at 330°.
As the aircraft climbed to its cruising altitude, it began its enroute climb from 1,015 feet above sea level to 28,728 feet above sea level, an increase of 27,713 feet in 16 minutes, covering a distance of 81 nautical miles. The climb started overhead LEBL Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport in Barcelona, Spain. The aircraft then entered a level cruise, which lasted for 47 minutes and covered a distance of 305 nautical miles, starting 10 miles south of Auzat in Occitanie, France.
The enroute descent from the cruising altitude began overhead Chenu in Pays de la Loire, France, and lasted for 9 minutes, covering a distance of 47 nautical miles. The aircraft descended from 28,043 feet above sea level to 14,513 feet above sea level, a decrease of 13,530 feet. The aircraft then entered another level cruise, which lasted for 2 minutes and covered a distance of 9 nautical miles, starting overhead Nogent-le-Rotrou in Centre-Val de Loire, France.
The enroute descent from the previous level cruise began 1 mile west of Champrond-en-Gatine in Centre-Val de Loire, France, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 9 nautical miles. The aircraft descended from 14,512 feet above sea level to 11,777 feet above sea level, a decrease of 2,736 feet. The aircraft then entered another level cruise, which lasted for 11 minutes and covered a distance of 49 nautical miles, starting overhead Saint-Arnoult-des-Bois in Centre-Val de Loire, France.
The enroute descent from the previous level cruise began overhead Saint-Ouen in Ile-de-France, France, and lasted for 7 minutes, covering a distance of 28 nautical miles. The aircraft descended from 11,016 feet above sea level to 4,757 feet above sea level, a decrease of 6,259 feet. The aircraft then entered another level cruise, which lasted for 2 minutes and covered a distance of 5 nautical miles, starting overhead Changis-sur-Marne in Ile-de-France, France.
The final enroute descent began 1 mile southwest of Le Plessis-Placy in Ile-de-France, France, and lasted for 4 minutes, covering a distance of 12 nautical miles. The aircraft descended from 4,753 feet above sea level to 1,680 feet above sea level, a decrease of 3,074 feet. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 27R at LFPG Charles de Gaulle International Airport from the east, heading 265.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,322 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 27R at LFPG Charles de Gaulle International Airport was successful, with a touchdown distance of 439 meters, which was good. The touchdown speed was 142 knots, which was a little fast, and the touchdown rate was hard at -414 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.5 meters from the center
The Airbus A321 aircraft successfully landed on runway 27R at LFPG Charles de Gaulle International Airport, achieving a score of 89.8%. The final approach was initiated from the east, heading 265.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,322 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway at a speed of 142 knots, which was slightly above the target speed. The touchdown distance of 439 meters was considered good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the touchdown rate of -414 feet per minute (fpm) was classified as hard, suggesting a relatively abrupt touchdown.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 3.5 meters, which may have been due to factors such as wind or pilot error. The local weather conditions at the time of landing included a temperature of 5°C, with a wind speed of 11 knots at 320°. The crosswind component was 9 knots, while the headwind component was 6 knots.
The total landing distance of 1,647 meters was 61% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was very good, suggesting that the aircraft was well under control during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score despite some minor deviations from the target parameters.
