Landing on runway 13L at KJFK John F Kennedy International Airport in the Airbus A321

Landing Score 98.18 %

Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 successfully landed on runway 13L at John F Kennedy International Airport (KJFK) with a score of 89.3%. The aircraft approached the runway from the northwest, heading 121.0° at an altitude of 196 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway. The final approach was executed with precision, and the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 135 knots, which was within the acceptable range.

The threshold height at 79 feet agl was slightly above the target, but the threshold speed of 145 knots was good. The touchdown point was 421 feet beyond the touchdown zone, which indicates that the aircraft landed slightly down the runway. However, the touchdown speed and rate were both good, at 135 knots and -163 feet per minute (fpm), respectively. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 72°F and a wind speed of 7 knots from 189°. The crosswind component was 6 knots, while the headwind component was 2 knots. The total landing distance was 5,143 feet, which is 64% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the aircraft maintained its alignment with the runway centerline during the rollout phase.

Overall, the landing was executed with precision and control, and the aircraft came to a stop on the runway with a good touchdown speed and rate. However, the touchdown point being 421 feet beyond the touchdown zone indicates that the aircraft could have landed slightly closer to the touchdown zone, which would have resulted in a higher score.
