What went well

Touched down at -312 fpm — a soft arrival
Straight touchdown — 1.60 m off the centreline, no bounce
1.29 G at touchdown — inside band

What held you back

Departure Roll — Landing Lights at 0 %, Strobe Lights at 0 %, −1.31 points
Arrival Landing — Flare profile at 0 %, Threshold height at 66 ft agl was above target at 76 %, −1.29 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown distance was 870 m at 55 %, −0.33 points

Next time

Departure

Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.

What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 7.7 m off the runway centreline.

Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.

See Departure Roll

Arrival

Keep the back pressure coming through the flare so the sink does not return at 180 fpm.

What happened: The flare arrested the sink, but then the sink returned before touchdown.

Watch for: Watch the VSI in the flare and keep arrested sink from returning before touchdown at 312 fpm.

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 began with a departure roll from runway 27L at London Heathrow Airport, with the Airbus A321 taking off after a distance of 1,545 meters, which is 46% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 174 knots. At the time of departure, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 13 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 18 knots from a direction of 190 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 18 knots and a headwind of 3 knots.

As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb 1 mile south of Harmondsworth, a town in Greater London, England. The climb took place from an altitude of 1,132 feet above sea level to 26,921 feet above sea level, an increase of 25,790 feet in just 11 minutes, covering a distance of 57 nautical miles. Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, which started 19 miles south of Worthing, a town in West Sussex, England. This cruise phase lasted for 69 minutes and covered a distance of 475 nautical miles.

The aircraft then began its enroute descent 4 miles east of Ax-les-Thermes, a town in Occitanie, France. The descent took place from an altitude of 26,238 feet above sea level to 2,914 feet above sea level, a decrease of 23,325 feet in 21 minutes, covering a distance of 91 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise, this time overhead Sitges, a town in Catalunya, Spain, which lasted for just 2 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles.

The final descent started 3 miles east of Sitges and took place from an altitude of 2,826 feet above sea level to 1,327 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,499 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 06L at Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport, flying from the southwest at a heading of 65.0 degrees and at an altitude of 1,309 feet above ground level.

The aircraft landed on runway 06L, which has a length of 2,914 meters. The threshold height at 66 feet above ground level was above the target, but the threshold speed was good at 137 knots. The touchdown point was 403 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was good at 129 knots. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -217 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 13 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 9 knots from a direction of 350 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 9 knots and a headwind of 2 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,439 meters, which is 49% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also very good. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area from the runway in less than 1 minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 637 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 108 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 4,501 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 06L at LEBL Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport in the Airbus A321neo
Landing Score 88.7 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 has successfully landed at LEBL Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport, achieving an overall score of 88.7%. The aircraft, during its final approach to runway 06L, was heading in the direction of 65.0° from the south west area at an altitude of 1,309 feet above ground level (agl) and was approximately 4 nautical miles away from the target. This positioning allowed the aircraft to follow the standard approach procedure for the airport.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway threshold at a height of 66 feet agl, which was higher than the target height but not by a significant margin. This slight overcompensation could be due to various factors such as turbulence or the pilot's preference for a higher-than-normal approach angle. The key performance criteria for landing threshold speed was met at 137 kts, which is a respectable speed given the local weather conditions and the overall performance of the aircraft.

One of the notable aspects of this landing was the touchdown point, located 403 meters beyond the touchdown zone. A landing spot 49% along the runway length is not ideal, as it increases the risk of overrun or damage to aircraft components. Furthermore, the touchdown was conducted at a speed of 129 kts, which was lower than the recommended 137 kts but not by a significant margin. This could be perceived as a deliberate decision by the pilot to prioritize a safe landing over the exact speed criteria.

The rate of descent during the landing came in at -217 feet per minute. Although it is a fair score for this criterion, it could potentially be improved in future approaches.

The impact of the crosswind and headwind on the landing was minimal. At temperatures of 13°C, wind speed of 9 kts at 350° degrees, the crosswind was 7 kts from the south-east quadrant of the windsock. However the crosswind and headwind had relatively little effect on this approach. The overall performance of the aircraft shows a good alignment with the runway upon touch down, resulting in a very good run way roll out alignment.

The aircraft's overall performance earned a respectable 88.7% score for the landing, which could have been further elevated by stricter adherence to recommended speeds and touchdown points. However, from a safety perspective, this landing was deemed successful.
