Top opportunity

Shorten the long landing

Arrival Touchdown

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.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 12 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, an Airbus A321, then departed from runway 27 at the Cincinnati Northern Kentucky International Airport (KCVG). The takeoff distance was 4,796 feet, which is 40% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 168 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 42°F and winds of 4 knots at 39°. The crosswind was 3 knots, and the tailwind was 2 knots. As the aircraft took off, it began its enroute climb, which started 1 mile south of Hebron, Kentucky. The climb was from an altitude of 1,889 feet above sea level to 36,220 feet above sea level, an increase of 34,331 feet in 34 minutes, covering a distance of 195 nautical miles.

After the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, which started 2 miles north of Cadiz, Kentucky, and lasted for 14 minutes, covering a distance of 89 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, which started 4 miles north of Dyersburg, Tennessee. The descent was from 36,193 feet above sea level to 34,812 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,381 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 14 nautical miles.

The aircraft then entered another level cruise, which started 8 miles southeast of Cooter, Missouri, and lasted for 25 minutes, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then began its descent again, which started 8 miles southeast of Cooter, Missouri. The descent was from 34,812 feet above sea level to 7,003 feet above sea level, a decrease of 27,809 feet in 23 minutes, covering a distance of 138 nautical miles.

The aircraft then entered another level cruise, which started 3 miles north of Keo, Arkansas, and lasted for 7 minutes, covering a distance of 22 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, which started 3 miles southwest of East End, Arkansas. The descent was from 6,987 feet above sea level to 2,150 feet above sea level, a decrease of 4,837 feet in 4 minutes, covering a distance of 12 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 04L at the Bill & Hillary Clinton National Airport/Adams Field (KLIT) was from the southwest, heading 48.0° at 3 nautical miles and 1,849 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 04L was successful, with the touchdown point being very long, using more than 50% of the available runway. The touchdown speed was 130 knots, which was good, and the touchdown rate was excellent at -66 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 52°F and winds of 2 knots at 79°. The crosswind was 1 knot, and the headwind was 2 knots. The total landing distance was 6,722 feet, which is 84% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 29 feet from the centerline.

The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 5 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 479 nautical miles, taking 96 minutes, and the aircraft used 11,437 pounds of fuel.

Landing on runway 04L at KLIT Bill & Hillary Clinton National Airport/Adams Field in the Airbus A321neo
Landing Score 78.78 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 aircraft successfully landed on runway 04L at KLIT Bill & Hillary Clinton National Airport/Adams Field, achieving a score of 78.8%. The final approach was initiated from the southwest, heading 48.0° at 3 nautical miles and 1,849 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft successfully touched down on the runway, with a touchdown speed of 130 knots, which was within the acceptable range.

However, the touchdown point was located very far down the runway, utilizing more than 50% of the available runway length. This indicates that the aircraft may have been slightly too long or the pilots may have been attempting to land with a higher than necessary touchdown point. The threshold height at 73 feet agl was well above the target, suggesting that the aircraft may have been slightly high on final approach. The threshold speed was also slightly above the target at 152 knots, which may have contributed to the long touchdown point.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 52°F and a wind speed of 2 knots at 79°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 2 knots. These conditions would not have significantly impacted the landing performance of the aircraft.

The total landing distance was 6,722 feet, which accounted for 84% of the available runway length. This is a relatively long landing distance, but it was still within the acceptable range. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 29 feet from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilots' control inputs during the rollout phase.

Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some areas for improvement, particularly in terms of the touchdown point and the runway rollout alignment. The pilots demonstrated good control and management of the aircraft during the landing, but there may be opportunities to refine their techniques to achieve a more optimal landing performance.
