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.

Landing Summary

The Boeing 787-8 touched down on runway 08 at MDPC Punta Cana International Airport, marking a successful conclusion to the approach phase. The aircraft's descent was well-managed, with a good threshold height achieved, allowing for a smooth transition to the touchdown phase. The threshold speed of 132 kt was also within acceptable limits, indicating a well-executed approach.

As the aircraft made contact with the runway, the touchdown speed of 126 kt was recorded, which was within the desired range. The touchdown rate of -199 fpm was also satisfactory, demonstrating a controlled descent. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 10.2 m, which may have been due to crosswind or pilot error. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 30 °C and a headwind of 14 kt, may have also played a role in the slight deviation.

The total landing distance of 1,191 m, which accounted for 38% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned from the centreline by 9.1 m, which may have been a result of the aircraft's initial touchdown position. Despite these minor deviations, the overall performance of the aircraft was satisfactory, earning a score of 94.7%.
