The flight began with the aircraft, an Airbus A321, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at YLRE Longreach Airport. This process took approximately 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 04, with the aircraft taking off after covering 57% of the runway's length. The takeoff distance was 1,096 meters, and the liftoff speed was 140 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 28 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 9 knots at a direction of 45 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 0 knots and a headwind of 9 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile northeast of YLRE Longreach Airport and ascending from an altitude of 1,656 feet above sea level to 38,182 feet above sea level. This climb phase covered a distance of 141 nautical miles and took 22 minutes to complete.
Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 12 miles east of Alpha, Queensland. This phase lasted for 9 minutes and covered a distance of 75 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 4 miles east of YEML Emerald Airport and descending from 38,190 feet above sea level to 9,512 feet above sea level. This descent phase covered a distance of 91 nautical miles and took 14 minutes to complete.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 6 miles north of YCMC Commanche Glenroy. This phase lasted for 4 minutes and covered a distance of 21 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting 14 miles west of The Caves and descending from 8,642 feet above sea level to 1,384 feet above sea level. This descent phase covered a distance of 18 nautical miles and took 7 minutes to complete.
The final approach to runway 15 at YBRK Rockhampton Airport was made from the north, with the aircraft heading 158.0 degrees at an altitude of 4 nautical miles and 1,341 feet above ground level. The landing took place on runway 15, which had a length of 2,575 meters. The threshold height at 68 feet above ground level was above the target, but the threshold speed was good at 136 knots.
The touchdown point was 51 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 132 knots, which was considered good. However, the touchdown rate was hard at -428 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 14.4 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 23 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 5 knots at a direction of 120 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 4 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,183 meters, which was 46% of the runway's length. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 14.3 meters from the centerline. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area from the runway, taking approximately 4 minutes and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 353 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 68 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 2,998 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

The Airbus A321 aircraft successfully landed at YBRK Rockhampton Airport, but with some notable areas for improvement. The final approach to runway 15 from the north was conducted at a heading of 158.0°, with the aircraft at 4 nautical miles and 1,341 feet above ground level (agl). The landing was executed on a runway with a length of 2,575 meters, which provided a sufficient margin for the aircraft to come to a stop.
However, the threshold height at 68 feet agl was above the target, indicating that the aircraft may have been slightly high on its approach. Fortunately, the threshold speed was good at 136 knots, suggesting that the pilot maintained a suitable airspeed during the final stages of the approach. The touchdown point was 51 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation.
The touchdown speed of 132 knots was also good, indicating that the pilot managed to maintain a controlled descent and touchdown. However, the touchdown rate was hard at -428 feet per minute (fpm), which may have been due to the aircraft's high rate of descent during the final stages of the approach. This could be an area for improvement to ensure a smoother touchdown.
In terms of alignment, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 14.4 meters from the centerline, which is a relatively significant deviation. This may have been due to the pilot's failure to maintain a straight course during the final stages of the approach. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 23°C and a wind of 5 knots at 120°, were relatively calm, which should not have significantly impacted the landing.
The total landing distance of 1,183 meters was 46% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 14.3 meters from the centerline, which is similar to the deviation during the touchdown. This suggests that the pilot may have struggled to maintain a straight course during the rollout phase.
Overall, while the landing was successful, there are some areas for improvement, particularly in terms of maintaining a straight course during the final stages of the approach and rollout. With some adjustments to the pilot's technique, these deviations can be minimized, and the landing can be executed with greater precision.
