Solid — small amounts left on the table.
Stabilised approach
The approach, gate by gate
Where the wheels went down
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,713 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 253 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
1.22 points lost
Biggest loss first. Every scored stage counts equally within its phase, and the phases equally in the flight score — so each amount is exact, not an estimate.
The rest of the report
The aircraft taxied from the parking area to runway 28L at KSFO, a movement that required 13 minutes and covered 2 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 28L, the A21N accelerated through a takeoff distance of 1,628 m, representing 48 % of the runway, and lifted off at 170 kt. Ambient conditions at the time were a temperature of 21 °C, wind 10 kt from 280°, with a 3 kt cross-wind component and a 9 kt head-wind.
Climb commenced overhead San Bruno, climbing from 985 ft asl to 35,008 ft asl, an altitude gain of 34,023 ft achieved in 28 minutes while covering 170 nm.
The first cruise segment began 9 miles north-west of 36CN Blackwell Land Company Airport (Lost Hills) and lasted 2 minutes, during which the aircraft travelled 12 nm.
Descent started 4 miles south of the same Lost Hills airport, descending from 35,002 ft asl to 2,241 ft asl, a loss of 32,761 ft over 27 minutes and a distance of 147 nm.
A second cruise phase was initiated overhead Walnut Park, persisting for 2 minutes and covering 6 nm.
The final approach to runway 24R at KLAX was conducted from the east, on a heading of 263.0°, at 4 nm and 1,418 ft agl. Local weather reported a temperature of 28 °C, wind 5 kt from 260°, with no cross-wind and a 5 kt head-wind component.
At 945 ft agl the crew executed a go-around on runway 24R at KLAX, climbing away from the approach path before re-establishing a subsequent approach.
Landing on runway 24R followed, with the runway length measured at 2,713 m. The threshold speed was recorded at 140 kt, touchdown occurred after 251 m, at a speed of 138 kt, and the aircraft settled with a firm touchdown rate of minus 395 fpm. The touchdown point was offset by 3.1 m from the centreline, and the total landing distance measured 1,386 m, equivalent to 51 % of the runway.
Runway rollout alignment was described as very good, confirming a straight and controlled exit from the runway after touchdown.
After landing, the aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area, a taxi-in that lasted 15 minutes and spanned 2 nm.
In total, the flight covered 403 nm, required 98 minutes of elapsed time, and consumed 3,647 kg of fuel.
Aircraft A21N completed the final approach to runway 24R at KLAX from the east on a heading of 263.0° at 4 nm and 1,418 ft agl. Local conditions were 28 °C with a wind of 5 kt from 260°, giving a 5 kt headwind and zero crosswind. The approach maintained a good threshold height.
At the threshold the aircraft held a good speed of 140 kt and proceeded to flare in accordance with the approach profile.
Touchdown occurred 251 m down the runway at a good speed of 138 kt. The touchdown rate was firm at -395 fpm and the touchdown point was slightly misaligned by 3.1 m from the centreline. Total landing distance was 1,386 m, representing 51 % of the 2,713 m runway.
Rollout alignment was very good, keeping the aircraft on the centreline through the deceleration phase.
Refine centreline tracking to reduce the 3.1 m lateral offset and adjust flare timing to moderate the firm -395 fpm rate, which will further improve the already high score of 96.9 %.
