Top opportunity

Avoid steep turns at low altitude

Departure Climb 3

Below a thousand feet the aeroplane is slow, heavy and close to the ground. A steep turn loses lift, raises the stall speed and flattens the climb just when the gradient matters most. A normal turn on course is a rate one — fifteen degrees or so, twenty-five at the outside, this penalty is to acknowledge when a turn has stopped being a turn and become a manoeuvre.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 7 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, an Airbus A321, then departed from runway 03 at Dunedin International Airport (NZDN). The takeoff distance was 1,140 meters, which is 60% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 135 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of 16°C, with a wind speed of 2 knots at 269°. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a tailwind of 2 knots. The aircraft began its enroute climb 1 mile northeast of NZDN, rising from 1,036 feet above sea level to 14,565 feet above sea level, an increase of 13,529 feet in 6 minutes, covering a distance of 20 nautical miles.

The enroute level cruise started 2 miles east of Portobello and lasted 11 minutes, covering 10 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 1 mile northeast of Warrington, descending from 14,505 feet above sea level to 2,841 feet above sea level, a decrease of 11,663 feet in 9 minutes, covering a distance of 38 nautical miles. Another enroute level cruise started 1 mile west of Milton and lasted 6 minutes, covering 11 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 03 at NZDN was made from the southwest, heading 56.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,270 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 03, which has a length of 1,885 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 136 knots. However, the touchdown point was 51 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was a little fast at 131 knots. The touchdown rate was hard at -455 feet per minute.

The runway touchdown alignment was very good, but the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 7.8 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 15°C, with a wind speed of 2 knots at 270°, resulting in a crosswind of 1 knot and a tailwind of 2 knots. The total landing distance was 1,179 meters, which is 63% of the runway length.

The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 87 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 42 minutes. The aircraft used 1,960 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing Score 94.38 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A321 aircraft successfully landed at Dunedin International Airport, achieving a score of 94.4%. The final approach to runway 03 was conducted from the south-west, with a heading of 56.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,270 feet above ground level.

The aircraft touched down on the runway, with a threshold height that was considered good. The threshold speed was also satisfactory at 136 knots. However, the touchdown point was located 51 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating a slight deviation from the intended landing spot. The touchdown speed of 131 knots was slightly faster than desired, and the touchdown rate was hard at -455 feet per minute.

Despite these minor issues, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway during the landing. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a gentle wind of 2 knots from a direction of 270°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, and the tailwind component was 2 knots.

The total landing distance of 1,179 meters was 63% of the available runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 7.8 meters from the centerline, indicating that the aircraft may have drifted slightly during the rollout phase.

Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score despite some minor deviations from the ideal landing parameters.
