Landing on runway 23L at NZAA Auckland International Airport in the Airbus A350-900

Landing Score 99.51 %

Landing Summary

The Airbus A350-900 successfully landed on runway 23L at Auckland International Airport (NZAA) with a score of 99.5%. The aircraft approached the runway from the east, heading 251.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,275 feet above ground level (agl). The landing was executed on a runway with a length of 3,285 meters.

The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway threshold. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 135 kt, coming in at 136 kt. This minor deviation from the target speed did not seem to have a significant impact on the overall landing performance.

The touchdown distance was good, measuring 443 meters, which is a reasonable distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. However, the touchdown speed was a little fast at 134 kt, which may have contributed to a slightly higher touchdown rate of -262 fpm. A higher touchdown rate can increase the risk of damage to the aircraft's landing gear and other components.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.3 meters from the centerline, which is a minor deviation that did not seem to have a significant impact on the overall landing performance. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 21°C and a wind speed of 12 kt at 270°. The crosswind component was minimal at 4 kt, while the headwind component was 11 kt, which helped to reduce the aircraft's ground speed and make the landing more stable.

The total landing distance was 1,433 meters, which is 44% of the runway length. This is a reasonable distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and evenly, and the aircraft came to a stop without any issues.

Overall, the landing was executed smoothly and safely, with only minor deviations from the target speeds and touchdown position. The aircraft's performance was good, and the landing was completed without any issues.
