Arrival Rollout

Ground control varies with speed, full authority at walking pace, progressively reducing as groundspeed rises. The aircraft becomes twitchy at any speed, every small pedal input swings the nose, which can encourage large-amplitude leg inputs that no real aircraft would accept.

Flight narrative

The flight began with the Airbus A320 taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Auckland International Airport, taking approximately 6 minutes to cover a distance of 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 23L, with the aircraft lifting off after a takeoff distance of 1,501 meters, which was 46% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 160 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 18°C, a wind speed of 20 knots from 240 degrees, resulting in a 4-knot crosswind and a 19-knot headwind.

As the aircraft climbed away from Auckland International Airport, it began its enroute climb 1 mile southwest of the airport, rising from an altitude of 1,051 feet above sea level to 35,514 feet above sea level, an increase of 34,463 feet, in 13 minutes and covering a distance of 130 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise phase started 12 miles northwest of Okato, Taranaki, and lasted for 12 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 322 nautical miles.

Landing on runway 23 at NZQN Queenstown International Airport in the Airbus A320
Landing Score 95.92 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A320 successfully landed at Queenstown International Airport, achieving a score of 95.9%. The aircraft approached the runway from the east, heading 258.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,344 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was made to runway 23, which has a length of 1,771 meters.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold height was reported as good, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 147 knots. The touchdown distance was within acceptable limits at 428 meters, however, the touchdown speed of 139 knots was a little fast. The touchdown rate of -260 feet per minute (fpm) was considered fair.

One notable issue during the landing was the misalignment of the runway touchdown position, which was off-centerline by 8.8 meters. This may have been due to factors such as wind or pilot error. The local weather conditions at the time of landing included a temperature of 11°C, with a wind speed of 20 knots from 249°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the headwind component was 20 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,058 meters, which accounted for 60% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned, being off-centerline by 9.1 meters. Despite these minor issues, the overall performance of the Airbus A320 during the landing was satisfactory, with a score of 95.9%.
