Next time

Departure

Ease the nose up sooner to lift off at 160 kt instead of letting speed build on the ground.

What happened: The aircraft lifted off at 187 kt, 27 kt above the target liftoff speed.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 160 kt at liftoff

See Departure Roll

Arrival

Begin the flare with progressive back pressure and keep it coming until the sink is arrested, rather than flying it on flat.

What happened: The nose was barely raised in the flare and little of the sink was taken out, flying the aircraft onto the runway. This pattern usually carries through to a firm touchdown with a noticeable sink rate.

Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: a smoothly reducing sink through the normal flare band, not a steady rate into the runway.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

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 in question involved the Airbus A380 aircraft taking off from Runway 06 at ELLX Luxembourg-Findel International Airport. It required a takeoff distance of 2,912 meters, or 73% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 187 knots, with local weather conditions consisting of a temperature of 15 °C and light winds of 2 knots from 188°.

After takeoff, the aircraft began its en route climb, starting overhead Senningen, Luxembourg. It climbed from an altitude of 2,200 feet above sea level to 20,431 feet, an increase of 18,231 feet, in just 10 minutes and covering a distance of 36 nautical miles.

Throughout the flight, the aircraft performed several en route climbs and descents. One particularly steep descent occurred from 20,493 feet to 14,556 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 7 nautical miles. Other climbs and descents also took place, with some being more gradual, while others required more significant altitude adjustments.

The aircraft then engaged in a level cruise, lasting for 3 minutes, which spanned over 19 nautical miles. However, this cruise phase came to an end, and the aircraft began its descent, this time dropping from 12,967 feet to 2,349 feet in 4 minutes, covering 18 nautical miles.

The aircraft continued its descent and eventually began its final approach to Runway 22L at EBLG Liège Airport from the north east, flying at a heading of 228° and maintaining an altitude of 2,000 feet above ground level at 3 nautical miles from the runway threshold.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 125 meters beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 142 knots, which was considered good. Despite the relatively low touchdown speed, the touchdown rate was heavy at -699 feet per minute. Moreover, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 13.1 meters from the centreline, and the runway rollout alignment was also slightly off, by 11.7 meters.

The landing distance covered 1,155 meters, which accounted for 38% of the runway length. Local weather conditions during landing were characterized by a temperature of 14 °C and a headwind of 8 knots from 189°.

Finally, the aircraft taxied to the parking area from the runway in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. In total, the flight distance covered 102 nautical miles and consumed 11,680 kilograms of fuel, taking approximately 36 minutes to complete.

Landing on runway 22L at EBLG Liège Airport in the Airbus A380-800
Landing Score 79.4 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A380 has successfully landed at EBLG Liège Airport, but with a few areas of concern identified in the report. The final approach was initiated from the north east, heading 228.0° at 3 nautical miles (nm) and 1,663 feet Above Ground Level (AGL). The aircraft executed a smooth landing on runway 22L, with a threshold speed of 150 knots, which is the desired value.

However, the threshold height at 113 feet AGL exceeded the target, indicating that the aircraft may have descended a bit too quickly towards the landing. Despite this, the touchdown speed of 142 knots was within the acceptable limits. Unfortunately, the touchdown rate was heavier than expected, at -699 feet per minute (fpm), which is a concern as it may put extra stress on the aircraft's landing gear and could lead to a higher risk of damage.

In terms of runway alignment, the touchdown point was located 125 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the runway touchdown position was misaligned from the centreline by 13.1 meters. This could be due to a combination of factors, including crosswind and the pilot's handling of the aircraft during the landing. The local weather conditions were also favorable, with a temperature of 14°C and a wind speed of 10 knots blowing at 189°.

The crosswind was relatively weak at 6 knots, and the headwind was moderate at 8 knots. These conditions should have posed minimal challenges to the pilot during the landing. The total landing distance was 1,155 meters, which is 38% of the available runway length.

Finally, during the rollout phase, the aircraft's alignment was slightly off-centreline by 11.7 meters, indicating some loss of control or pilot error. While this issue was relatively minor, it is still something that needs to be addressed to improve the aircraft's landing performance and safety.
