What went well

Touched down at -255 fpm — a soft arrival
Threshold crossed at 48 ft and 134 kt — both inside band
Straight touchdown — 0.5 ft off the centreline, no bounce

What held you back

Arrival Landing — Flare profile at 19 %, −0.84 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown distance was 2,203 ft at 77 %, −0.17 points

Next time

Arrival

Start the flare with progressive back pressure and keep it coming until the sink is arrested.

What happened: The aircraft was flown onto the runway: the nose was barely raised and little of the sink was taken out, touching down at 255 fpm.

Watch for: Pitch attitude: rising steadily through the flare until the sink is checked.

See Arrival Landing

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.

Flight narrative

The flight in question was operated by an Airbus A320 aircraft. The pre-flight taxiing process from the parking area to the runway took approximately 6 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 04 at San Antonio International Airport (KSAT), with a takeoff distance of 5,045 feet, which accounted for 59% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was recorded at 149 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of departure were favorable, with a temperature of 68°F and a wind speed of 0 knots at 0 degrees. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile northeast of KSAT, and reached a maximum altitude of 35,998 feet above sea level (asl) after climbing 34,298 feet in 21 minutes, covering a distance of 141 nautical miles.

Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 25 minutes and covered a distance of 713 nautical miles. This phase started 2 miles west of Putty Ranch Airport (TA78) in Hico, Texas. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 4 miles northwest of Garner, Iowa, and descended from 36,011 feet asl to 11,059 feet asl in 11 minutes, covering a distance of 70 nautical miles.

The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which lasted for 3 minutes and covered a distance of 18 nautical miles, starting 3 miles north of Warsaw, Minnesota. This was followed by another descent phase, which started 1 mile southeast of Curry Airport (MY75) and ended at 4,578 feet asl in 9 minutes, covering a distance of 39 nautical miles.

The aircraft then entered yet another level cruise phase, which lasted for 5 minutes and covered a distance of 17 nautical miles, starting 1 mile north of Osseo, Minnesota. This was followed by a final descent phase, which started overhead Medicine Lake and ended at 2,133 feet asl in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 6 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 12L at Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport (KMSP) was made from the northwest, with a heading of 121.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,290 feet above ground level (agl). The landing was successful, with a touchdown point 831 feet beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was recorded at 129 knots, which was slightly faster than the recommended speed, but the touchdown rate was good at -172 feet per minute.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were different from those at departure, with a temperature of 23°F and a wind speed of 6 knots at 130°. The crosswind component was 1 knot, while the headwind component was 6 knots. The total landing distance was 4,237 feet, which accounted for 53% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, and the taxiing process from the runway to the parking area took approximately 1 minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

The total flight distance was 1,012 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 84 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 13,599 pounds of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 12L at KMSP Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport in the Airbus A320neo
Landing Score 93.92 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A320 successfully landed on runway 12L at KMSP Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport, achieving a score of 93.9%. The aircraft approached the runway from the northwest, heading 121.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,290 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 landed at a speed of 135 knots, which is considered good for the threshold speed. However, the touchdown speed at 129 knots was slightly faster than ideal, indicating that the pilot may have been able to flare the aircraft more effectively to achieve a smoother touchdown. The touchdown rate of -172 feet per minute (fpm) was good, indicating that the aircraft was able to absorb the impact of landing smoothly.

The touchdown point was 831 feet beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively long distance. This may be attributed to the slightly fast touchdown speed, as the aircraft may have taken longer to come to a complete stop. However, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft throughout the landing.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 23°F and a wind speed of 6 knots at 130°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 6 knots, which helped to reduce the landing distance. The total landing distance was 4,237 feet, which is 53% of the runway length. This is a relatively long landing distance, but it is not uncommon for aircraft to land beyond the touchdown zone, especially if the touchdown speed is slightly fast.

The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft throughout the landing and rollout phases. Overall, the landing was successful, but there is room for improvement in terms of touchdown speed and landing distance.
