Arrival
Hold the aim point and wait for the speed to bleed before raising the nose, starting the flare within the normal band instead of 55 ft.
What happened: The flare began at 55 ft, 9.8 ft earlier than the normal band.
Watch for: Radio altimeter: start the flare within the normal flare band
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.

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 1,762 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,762 m of the 2,644 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 521 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Nuremberg Airport (EDDN), the Airbus A321 began its journey, taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took approximately 8 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. As the aircraft lined up on runway 28, the local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 9°C and a gentle headwind of 6 knots from a direction of 280°. With a crosswind of 0 knots, the aircraft took off, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 165 knots in a distance of 1,415 meters, which was 53% of the runway length.
As the aircraft climbed away from Nuremberg, it began a steady ascent, reaching an altitude of 31,009 feet in 17 minutes, covering a distance of 98 nautical miles. The climb was characterized by a series of level cruises, with the aircraft maintaining a steady altitude before resuming its ascent. The most notable of these level cruises occurred over Ismaning, where the aircraft remained at an altitude of 31,009 feet for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 14 nautical miles. The aircraft continued to climb, reaching a maximum altitude of 36,910 feet in a further 7 minutes, before embarking on a long level cruise over the Italian countryside.
As the aircraft began its descent into Tunis Carthage International Airport (DTTA), it encountered a series of level cruises, with the aircraft maintaining a steady altitude before descending to a lower altitude. The final approach to runway 29 was made from the east, with the aircraft aligning itself with the runway at a height of 1,376 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with the aircraft touching down 103 meters beyond the touchdown zone, at a speed of 138 knots. The total landing distance was 1,679 meters, which was 64% of the runway length. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took approximately 4 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 819 nautical miles, with the aircraft using 5,971 kilograms of fuel during the journey, which took a total of 123 minutes.
The aircraft touched down on runway 29 at DTTA Tunis Carthage International Airport, a 2,644-meter long runway, after a final approach from the east. The approach quality was good, with a threshold height that met expectations. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target, reaching 146 knots.
The touchdown point was 103 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed of 138 knots was a little fast. The touchdown rate of -291 feet per minute was fair, indicating a relatively smooth descent. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 3.9 meters, which may have been due to the crosswind component of 6 knots. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 11 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 20 knots at 310 degrees, contributed to the landing performance.
The total landing distance of 1,679 meters was 64% of the runway length, which is within acceptable limits. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was well-controlled during the post-landing phase. Overall, the landing performance scored 95.9%, reflecting a high level of proficiency in executing a safe and controlled landing.
