What went well

Touched down at -221 fpm — a soft arrival
Threshold crossed at 51 ft and 142 kt — both inside band
Straight touchdown — 4.20 m off the centreline, no bounce

What held you back

Arrival Landing — Landing and flare profile at 34 %, −0.69 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown distance was 905 m at 51 %, −0.37 points
Departure Roll — Runway alignment max 5.28 m at 92 %, −0.11 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.

Flight narrative

The flight began with the aircraft, an Airbus A321, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at LSZH Zürich Airport. This process took 6 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The departure roll took place on runway 28, and the takeoff distance was 1,395 meters, which is 56% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 156 knots.

As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 20°C and winds of 4 knots at 159 degrees. The crosswind was 3 knots, and there was a 2-knot tailwind. The enroute climb started overhead Rumlang, a town in the Kanton Zurich region of Switzerland, and the aircraft climbed from an altitude of 2,389 feet above sea level to 34,043 feet, an increase of 31,653 feet in 21 minutes, covering a distance of 112 nautical miles.

The enroute level cruise began overhead Membrey, a town in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comte region of France, and lasted for 53 minutes, covering a distance of 365 nautical miles.

Landing on runway 23R at EGCC Manchester Airport in the Airbus A321neo
Landing Score 92.98 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 successfully landed on runway 23R at Manchester Airport (EGCC) with a score of 93.0%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north east, heading 230.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,345 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot maintained a good threshold height, which is a critical aspect of a safe landing.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold speed was recorded at 142 knots, which is within the acceptable range. The touchdown point was located 490 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating a slight deviation from the intended landing spot. However, the touchdown speed of 130 knots was considered good, suggesting that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the descent.

The touchdown rate of -221 feet per minute (fpm) was deemed fair, which may indicate a slight loss of altitude control during the final stages of the landing. Nevertheless, the runway touchdown position was only slightly misaligned by 4.2 meters from the centerline, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain directional control.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 12°C, with a wind speed of 6 knots from 290°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 3 knots. These conditions did not appear to significantly impact the landing, as the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft.

The total landing distance of 1,644 meters was 68% of the available runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain directional control and stabilize the aircraft during the rollout phase.

Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the pilot demonstrating good control and decision-making skills throughout the approach and landing phases. However, there is room for improvement in terms of touchdown rate and touchdown zone alignment.
