The flight began with a departure roll from runway 24L at Los Angeles International Airport (KLAX). The Airbus A330-900 took off with a takeoff distance of 69 feet, which was just 1% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 172 knots, and the aircraft quickly gained altitude.

As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb 1 mile northwest of El Segundo, California. The climb was steep, with the aircraft rising from 1,086 feet above sea level to 36,013 feet in just 16 minutes, covering a distance of 94 nautical miles. This impressive climb showcased the aircraft's capabilities.

After reaching cruising altitude, the aircraft leveled off and began its enroute cruise 10 miles north of Los Olivos, California. This phase of the flight lasted for 7 minutes and covered 53 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its enroute descent 4 miles northeast of Cayucos, California, and descended from 36,022 feet to 1,810 feet in 33 minutes, covering a distance of 145 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 28R at San Francisco International Airport (KSFO) was initiated from the southeast, with the aircraft heading 298.0 degrees at 3 nautical miles and 1,799 feet above ground level. However, the aircraft was forced to execute a go-around at 116 feet above ground level, indicating a potential issue with the approach.

The aircraft then successfully landed on runway 28R, with a touchdown distance of 1,148 feet, which was 30% of the runway. The touchdown speed was a little fast at 136 knots, but the touchdown rate was firm at -381 feet per minute.

Landing on runway 28R at KSFO San Francisco International Airport in the Airbus A330-900

Landing Score 98.2 %

Landing Summary

The Airbus A330-900 successfully landed at San Francisco International Airport (KSFO) on runway 28R, achieving a high score of 98.2%. The aircraft approached the runway from the southeast, heading 298.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,799 feet above ground level (agl). This precise approach demonstrates the pilot's skill and attention to detail.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 138 kt, which was within the acceptable threshold speed. The touchdown distance of 1,148 ft was also satisfactory, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the touchdown speed of 136 kt was slightly faster than desired, which may have resulted in a firmer touchdown rate.

The touchdown rate of -381 fpm was firm, but not excessively so, suggesting that the aircraft's weight and speed were well-managed during the landing. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 53°F, which is relatively mild. This favorable weather likely contributed to the smooth and controlled nature of the landing.

The total landing distance of 3,486 ft was 30% of the runway length, which is a reasonable distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively to bring the aircraft to a stop.

Overall, this landing was a testament to the pilot's skill and experience, as well as the aircraft's performance capabilities. The high score achieved demonstrates that the pilot was able to execute a precise and controlled landing, even in the face of slightly faster-than-desired touchdown speed.
