Landing on runway 01 at ZBAA Beijing Capital International Airport in the Airbus A321

Landing Score 98.47 %

Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 aircraft successfully landed at ZBAA Beijing Capital International Airport, achieving a high score of 98.5%. The final approach to runway 01 was conducted from the south, with a heading of 353.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,253 feet above ground level (agl).

The aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 141 knots. However, the touchdown speed of 134 knots was slightly faster than ideal, which may have contributed to a fair touchdown rate of -209 feet per minute (fpm). The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 5.4 meters, which may have been due to factors such as wind or pilot error.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 7°C and a wind speed of 5 knots from a direction of 160°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the tailwind component was 5 knots. These conditions were relatively favorable for landing, and the aircraft was able to maintain a stable approach.

The total landing distance of 846 meters was 22% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This suggests that the aircraft was able to touch down and come to a stop quickly, with a very good runway rollout alignment. Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft was able to maintain control throughout the approach and touchdown phases.
