The Airbus A321 successfully landed at KMSY Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport, achieving a score of 97.1%. The aircraft approached the runway from the west, heading 106.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,191 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was made to runway 11, which has a length of 9,778 feet.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 833 feet beyond the touchdown zone, which is slightly beyond the ideal spot. However, the touchdown speed of 142 knots was a bit faster than the target speed, indicating that the pilot may have applied the brakes slightly too late. Despite this, the touchdown rate was excellent at -80 feet per minute (fpm), demonstrating good control and precision.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 82°F and a gentle wind of 2 knots from 320°. This resulted in a minimal crosswind and tailwind, making the landing even smoother. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline.
The total landing distance of 6,276 feet was 64% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. This suggests that the pilot executed a good flare and touchdown, followed by a smooth rollout. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the aircraft remained aligned with the runway centerline during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated good skills and control. However, there is room for improvement in terms of touchdown speed and distance from the touchdown zone.
