The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,624 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,624 m of the 3,037 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 385 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a departure roll from runway 25 at EDDS Stuttgart Airport, with the Airbus A321 taking off after a distance of 842 meters, which accounted for 28% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 132 knots. At the time of departure, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 4 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 192 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead EDDS Stuttgart Airport and continued to an altitude of 4,010 feet above sea level. During this phase, the aircraft ascended by 1,460 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles. Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 3 minutes and covered a distance of 10 nautical miles, with the aircraft flying over Wolfschlugen in Baden-Wuerttemberg, Germany.
As the aircraft began its enroute descent, it started 1 mile northwest of Ebersbach an der Fils, Germany, and descended from an altitude of 4,011 feet to 2,575 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,436 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 6 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 25 at EDDS Stuttgart Airport was made from the east, with the aircraft flying at a heading of 254.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,326 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway.
The landing was executed smoothly, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 112 knots and a touchdown distance of 386 meters. The touchdown rate was perfect at -43 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 2 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 0 knots from a direction of 189 degrees, resulting in no crosswind or headwind.
Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area from the runway, taking 2 minutes and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 26 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 12 minutes. The aircraft used a total of -296 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A321 successfully landed on runway 25 at EDDS Stuttgart Airport, achieving a perfect score of 100.0%. The aircraft approached the runway from the east, heading 254.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,326 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot maintained a good threshold height, which is a critical aspect of a safe landing.
Upon reaching the runway threshold, the aircraft touched down at a speed of 120 knots, which is considered good. The touchdown distance of 386 meters was also within the acceptable range. The touchdown speed of 112 knots was slightly lower than the threshold speed, but still within the safe limits. The most impressive aspect of this landing was the touchdown rate, which was a perfect -43 feet per minute (fpm). This indicates that the aircraft touched down smoothly and without any excessive deceleration.
The local weather conditions were favorable for the landing, with a temperature of 2°C and a wind speed of 0 knots. The wind direction was 189°, but it did not pose any significant challenge to the pilot. The crosswind and headwind components were both zero, making the landing even more straightforward.
The total landing distance of 1,538 meters was 51% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This indicates that the pilot was able to bring the aircraft to a stop quickly and efficiently. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, which is a testament to the pilot's skill and experience.
Overall, this landing was a textbook example of a safe and efficient approach and landing. The pilot's attention to detail and ability to maintain a smooth and controlled descent resulted in a perfect score.
