A320 Manual Landing Technique

[Check Airman]

I also fly a real A320. I try to avoid the fake ones as much as possible, but the training department won’t allow me to escape.

Yes, a real A320 compared, to a PC SIM A320 as someone else mentioned on here. This is the A320 type I was talking about when I said "real A320".

100' is WAY too early. Drive that sucker down, when you start the flare is when you start shifting your vision forward and using peripheral vision to sense your rate of sink. With the nose up some sink rate is good. Don't try for zero sink as a new guy. It's much worse leveling off high vs landing with a sink rate slightly higher than the experienced guys do. After several months your landings will improve.

Any advices about the A320 landing techniques, especially the flare, and the effect of weight and wind.
still confuse how I should deal with it on A320 ..

Just a normal A320-200 right?

With typical landing weight of around 57 to 61 Tons a landing would be exactly the same. LOVE THE FLY-BY-WIRE !

for ILS : be reminded to centered your FD once your disengage an autopilot

500 RA: look out side see the picture compared diamond and ILS track and wind on the top-left of your ND.

350 LAND mode : disengage fly centered FD. Check the rate . See out side keep the picture

200 RA: look outside Aiming ZONE. Keep your rate ( typical around 700 fpm for STD 5.2% wind +-5kts)

100 RA: look far away at the end of rwy in order to assess the sink of your A/C (Keep rate! DO NOT duck under or FWD side stick)

50 RA : be prepared LOLS and wings level please!

40 RA: check a little bit on your side stick by simply pull just little bro // AC will response see the picture outside sink will be less laaa

30 RA: If you can control the rate just CUT THE POWER TO IDLE + then FLARE

20 RA : FLARE

10 RA 5 RA ..... Smooth


for INITIAL it's better to Flare earlier than too late flare !!!!

Do not attempt to get a smooth landing by just pull pull pull pull => Tail-strike

Late flare may leads to hard-landing !

Good luck
