Top opportunity

Work on the flare

Arrival Landing

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 was conducted on a Boeing F/A-18E aircraft, departing from runway 15 at YAMB RAAF Base Amberley. Taxiing from the parking area to the runway took less than a minute and covered a distance of less than a nautical mile. The aircraft then began its departure roll, taking off with a takeoff distance of 753 meters, which is 25% of the runway length.

During takeoff, the aircraft reached a liftoff speed of 175 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 36 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 4 knots from a direction of 280 degrees. The crosswind component was 3 knots, while the tailwind component was 2 knots.

After takeoff, the aircraft began its enroute climb, starting overhead the location of Purga in the state of Queensland, Australia. The climb took place from an altitude of 1,217 feet above sea level to 1,617 feet above sea level, an increase of 400 feet, in less than a minute and covering a distance of less than a nautical mile.

Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, also starting overhead Purga. This phase lasted for 2 minutes and covered a distance of 5 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting overhead the location of Thagoona in the state of Queensland, Australia. The descent took place from an altitude of 1,829 feet above sea level to 752 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,077 feet, in 2 minutes and covering a distance of 4 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 15 at YAMB RAAF Base Amberley was conducted from the north, with the aircraft heading 159.0 degrees at a distance of 1 nautical mile and an altitude of 648 feet above ground level. The landing was executed on runway 15, which has a length of 3,056 meters. The threshold height at 67 feet above ground level was above the target, while the threshold speed was well above the target at 149 knots.

The touchdown distance was good at 436 meters, with a touchdown speed of 139 knots, which was also good. However, the touchdown rate was hard at -419 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 38 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 280 degrees. The crosswind component was 2 knots, while the tailwind component was 1 knot.

In total, the flight covered a distance of 12 nautical miles and took 4 minutes to complete. The aircraft used 370 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing report
Landing on runway 15 at YAMB RAAF Base Amberley in the McDonnell Douglas F/A-18 Hornet
Landing Score 88.6 %
Landing Summary

The Boeing F/A-18E aircraft successfully landed at YAMB RAAF Base Amberley, achieving an overall score of 88.6%. The final approach to runway 15 was initiated from the north, with the aircraft heading 159.0° at a distance of 1 nautical mile and an altitude of 648 feet above ground level (agl).

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway, which has a length of 3,056 meters. The threshold height at 67 feet agl was above the target, indicating that the aircraft was slightly higher than desired when reaching the runway threshold. However, the threshold speed was well above the target at 149 knots, suggesting that the aircraft was descending at a relatively high rate.

The touchdown distance of 436 meters was considered good, indicating that the aircraft was able to touch down within a reasonable distance from the runway threshold. The touchdown speed of 139 knots was also good, suggesting that the aircraft was able to slow down effectively before touching down. However, the touchdown rate of -419 feet per minute (fpm) was hard, indicating that the aircraft was experiencing a relatively high rate of descent at the moment of touchdown.

The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was 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 38°C and a wind speed of 2 knots from 280°. The crosswind component was 2 knots, while the tailwind component was 1 knot. These conditions were relatively calm, which likely contributed to the successful landing.
