Landing on runway 30 at EKVG Vágar Airport in the Airbus A321

Landing Score 96.33 %

Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 successfully landed at EKVG Vágar Airport, achieving a high score of 96.9%. The aircraft approached the runway from the south east, heading 298.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,463 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot maintained a good threshold height, which is a crucial aspect of a safe landing.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 142 knots, registering at 145 kt. This indicates that the pilot may have been slightly aggressive in their approach, but still managed to maintain control of the aircraft. The touchdown distance was good, measuring 226 meters, which is within the acceptable range for a runway of 1,795 meters in length.

However, the touchdown speed of 138 kt was a little fast, which may have resulted in a firm touchdown rate of -368 feet per minute (fpm). A firm touchdown rate can be a concern, as it may indicate that the aircraft is touching down with too much force, which can lead to damage or discomfort for passengers. Nevertheless, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained a stable and controlled approach.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were moderate, with a temperature of 13°C and a wind speed of 23 kt from 315°. The crosswind component was relatively low at 7 kt, while the headwind component was 22 kt, which helped to reduce the aircraft's ground speed and make the landing more manageable.

The total landing distance was 1,012 meters, which is 56% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain a high level of control and precision throughout the approach and landing phases. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain a stable and controlled rollout after touchdown.

Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated a high level of skill and precision in navigating the aircraft to a safe and controlled touchdown.
