A321
Flight Crew Air Transport Pilot (ATP)
Inflight Event / Encounter Wake Vortex Encounter
Flight Crew Executed Go Around / Missed Approach; Flight Crew Took Evasive Action
Environment - Non Weather Related; Procedure
During the final 10 seconds of our landing maneuver; we encountered significant wake turbulence and elected to execute a go around. The go around maneuver and subsequent landing were completed in compliance with [Company] procedures without any additional abnormalities.On the initial approach; we were approximately 3.5 miles behind an Airbus 319; when he landed ahead of us. The ATIS indicated calm winds and during most of the approach that appeared to be accurate. During the approach for the subsequent landing we observed that winds were calm until we reached 100 ft AGL. Below 100 ft AGL the winds appeared to increase to 160 at 7 knots. Apparently this was just enough quartering tailwind to push any wake turbulence over the runway and up into our flight path.
A321 Captain reported executing a go-around after encountering wake turbulence at low altitude on approach to CLT in trail of an A319.
