Departure
Arrival
The flight began with the aircraft, a Boeing F/A-18E, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at RAAF Base Amberley. This process took less than a minute and covered a distance of less than one nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 15, with a takeoff distance of 1,011 meters, which was approximately 33% of the runway's length. The liftoff speed was 193 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it encountered local weather conditions of a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 270 degrees. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting overhead the town of Purga in the state of Queensland, Australia. During this climb, the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 722 feet above sea level to 6,951 feet, an increase of 6,229 feet, in just 2 minutes and covering a distance of 13 nautical miles.
After reaching the desired altitude, the aircraft began its enroute descent, starting 1 mile northeast of the town of Ripley. The descent took place from an altitude of 7,377 feet above sea level to 1,971 feet, a decrease of 5,406 feet, in 2 minutes and covering a distance of 11 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 33 at RAAF Base Amberley was made from the southeast, with the aircraft heading 338.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,823 feet above ground level and a distance of 1 nautical mile from the runway. However, the aircraft was required to perform a go-around at an altitude of 76 feet above ground level, followed by another go-around at an altitude of 30 feet above ground level.
The aircraft eventually landed on runway 33, which had a length of 3,056 meters. The threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was excessively high at 206 knots. The touchdown point was also excessively long, using more than 75% of the available runway. The touchdown speed was 172 knots, which was fast, but the touchdown rate was good at -180 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 270 degrees, with a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 0 knots. The total landing distance was 22,009 meters, which was 720% of the runway's length. The runway rollout alignment was also very good.
The total flight distance was 87 nautical miles, and the flight took 19 minutes to complete. The aircraft used 1,575 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

The Boeing F/A-18E aircraft has successfully landed at YAMB RAAF Base Amberley, but with some notable issues. The final approach to runway 33 was initiated from the south east, heading 338.0° at 1 nm and 1,823 ft above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on the runway, but the landing was not without its problems.
One of the main concerns was the threshold speed, which was excessively high in all three instances of landing. The threshold speed is the speed at which the aircraft should touch down on the runway, and in this case, it was 198 kt, 239 kt, and 206 kt, respectively. These speeds are significantly higher than the recommended threshold speed, which could indicate a lack of control or a failure to properly configure the aircraft for landing.
Another issue was the touchdown point, which was excessively long, using more than 75% of the available runway. This could indicate that the aircraft was not properly aligned with the runway or that the pilot was not able to control the descent effectively. The touchdown speed was also fast, at 172 kt, which is higher than the recommended speed for landing. However, the touchdown rate was good, at -180 fpm, which indicates that the aircraft was able to slow down quickly after touching down.
The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 1 kt at 270°. There was no crosswind or headwind, which made the landing conditions ideal. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain its alignment with the runway after touching down.
Overall, while the Boeing F/A-18E aircraft was able to land safely at YAMB RAAF Base Amberley, there were some notable issues with the landing, including excessively high threshold speeds and a long touchdown point. These issues will need to be addressed in order to improve the safety and efficiency of the aircraft's landings.
