The flight in question was operated by an Airbus A320 aircraft, which began its enroute climb from a location 9 miles south of Nadi, a city in the Western Division of Fiji. The aircraft started climbing from an altitude of 3,000 feet above sea level (asl) and reached a height of 1,625 ft asl, an increase of 1,375 ft in just 3 minutes, while covering a distance of 8 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached Nadi International Airport, it began its final approach to runway 02 from the southwest, heading at an angle of 40.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,567 feet above ground level (agl). The landing on runway 02 was successful, with a runway length of 3,209 meters. The threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was higher than the target speed, reaching 136 knots.
The touchdown point was located 164 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 128 knots, which was considered fast. The touchdown rate was firm, with a rate of -310 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline, by 14.8 meters. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 17 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 3 knots at 270 degrees. The crosswind and tailwind components were both 2 knots.
The total landing distance covered by the aircraft was 1,498 meters, which accounted for 47% of the runway length. During the rollout, the aircraft's alignment was slightly misaligned from the centreline, by 11.4 meters. The total flight distance was 12 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 5 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 78 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

The Airbus A320 aircraft successfully landed at Nadi International Airport, with a score of 92.0%. The final approach to runway 02 was initiated from the southwest, heading 40.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,567 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach was conducted in a favorable local weather condition, with a temperature of 17°C and a gentle wind of 3 knots at 270°.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 164 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is slightly beyond the ideal position. The touchdown speed of 128 knots was faster than the target speed, indicating a slightly aggressive approach. The touchdown rate was firm at -310 feet per minute (fpm), which is within the acceptable range. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 14.8 meters from the centerline, which may have contributed to the slightly off-center touchdown.
The total landing distance of 1,498 meters was 47% of the runway length, which is within the acceptable range. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 11.4 meters from the centerline, which may have resulted from the initial touchdown position. Despite these minor deviations, the overall landing performance of the Airbus A320 was satisfactory, with a score of 92.0%.
The wind conditions during the landing were relatively calm, with a crosswind of 2 knots and a tailwind of 2 knots. These conditions did not appear to have a significant impact on the aircraft's performance. Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft came to a stop within a reasonable distance from the runway threshold.
