Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown VSI was -487 fpm. at 87 %, −0.14 points

Top opportunity

Work on the flare

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.

As the aircraft climbed to its cruising altitude, it passed overhead SB14 Wellington, where the enroute climb began. The aircraft climbed from 1,001 feet above sea level to 27,643 feet above sea level, an increase of 26,641 feet, in 16 minutes and covering a distance of 101 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise started 12 miles north-east of Waverley, Taranaki, and lasted for 9 minutes, covering a distance of 71 nautical miles.

The enroute descent started 10 miles west of Piopio, Waikato, and the aircraft descended from 27,021 feet above sea level to 2,720 feet above sea level, a decrease of 24,301 feet, in 14 minutes and covering a distance of 74 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise started again 7 miles north-west of Waiuku, Auckland, and lasted for 6 minutes, covering a distance of 10 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 05R at Auckland International Airport (NZAA) was made from the south-west, heading 71.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,275 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 05R was successful, with a touchdown distance of 349 meters, which was 35% of the runway length. The touchdown speed was 146 knots, which was a little fast, and the touchdown rate was hard at -487 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the runway rollout alignment was perfect.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 19°C, a wind speed of 5 knots at 40°, with a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 4 knots. The total landing distance was 1,147 meters, and the total flight distance was 263 nautical miles, taking 59 minutes and using 2,856 kilograms of fuel.

Landing on runway 05R at NZAA Auckland International Airport in the Airbus A321neo
Landing Score 97.19 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 aircraft successfully landed at Auckland International Airport, achieving a high score of 97.2%. The final approach to runway 05R was conducted from the southwest, aligning with a heading of 71.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,275 feet above ground level.

The aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, indicating a precise and controlled descent. The threshold speed of 147 knots was also satisfactory, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed during the landing phase. However, the touchdown speed of 146 knots was slightly above the optimal range, which may have contributed to a harder touchdown rate.

The touchdown rate of -487 feet per minute was considered hard, suggesting that the aircraft may have touched down with a bit too much force. 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 favorable, with a temperature of 19°C and a gentle wind of 5 knots from a direction of 40°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the headwind component was 4 knots, which helped to stabilize the aircraft during the landing phase.

The total landing distance of 1,147 meters was 35% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot maintained a stable and controlled rollout after touchdown.

Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated a high level of skill and proficiency in managing the aircraft during the final approach and landing phase. However, there is room for improvement in terms of touchdown speed and touchdown rate to achieve an even smoother and more controlled landing.
