What held you back

Enroute Descent — 250 kt exceeded below 10,000 ft; speed limits at 65 %, −0.94 points
Departure Taxi — peak taxi speed 30 kt at 67 %, −0.89 points
Arrival Landing — Landing and flare profile at 39 %, −0.64 points

Top opportunity

Slow the descent speed

Enroute Descent

Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering it.

Flight narrative

The flight began with the Airbus A320 taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Christchurch International Airport, taking 5 minutes and covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. Departure roll took place on runway 20, with the aircraft lifting off at a speed of 158 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 12 degrees Celsius, a wind speed of 5 knots from a direction of 310 degrees, with no crosswind or headwind.

As the aircraft climbed away from Christchurch International Airport, it began its enroute climb, reaching an altitude of 22,706 feet above sea level in just 6 minutes, covering a distance of 23 nautical miles. The climb started overhead the airport and took the aircraft through a significant increase in altitude, from 1,143 feet to 22,706 feet.

Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 31 minutes and covered a distance of 119 nautical miles. This phase of the flight took place 3 miles west of Southbridge, Canterbury, New Zealand.

The enroute descent phase began 14 miles northeast of Kaikoura, Canterbury, New Zealand, where the aircraft started its descent from 22,840 feet to 11,021 feet above sea level, a decrease of 11,819 feet in just 8 minutes, covering a distance of 50 nautical miles.

The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which lasted for 2 minutes and covered a distance of 8 nautical miles. This phase took place 15 miles northeast of NZBL Cape Campbell airstrip, Blenheim, Marlborough, New Zealand.

The final descent phase began 11 miles southwest of Brooklyn, Wellington, New Zealand, where the aircraft descended from 10,569 feet to 1,402 feet above sea level, a decrease of 9,168 feet in just 6 minutes, covering a distance of 15 nautical miles.

The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 16 at Wellington International Airport, flying from the north at a heading of 182.0 degrees and at an altitude of 1,367 feet above ground level, 4 nautical miles from the runway.

The first landing attempt on runway 16 resulted in an excessively high threshold speed and an excessively high threshold height. However, the second landing attempt was successful, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed that was within the acceptable range.

The touchdown point was 200 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 112 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown rate was firm at -398 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 17 degrees Celsius, a wind speed of 26 knots from a direction of 10 degrees, with a crosswind of 3 knots and a tailwind of 26 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,108 meters, which was 61% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, and the aircraft was able to taxi to the parking area in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

Overall, the flight covered a total distance of 231 nautical miles, taking 70 minutes, and used 2,680 kilograms of fuel.

Landing report
Landing on runway 16 at NZWN Wellington International Airport in the Airbus A320neo
Landing Score 93.66 %
Landing Summary

The Airbus A320 aircraft successfully landed at Wellington International Airport, with a score of 80.1%. The final approach to runway 16 was initiated from the north, heading 182.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,367 feet above ground level (agl).

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway, but unfortunately, the threshold height was excessively over target. This indicates that the aircraft descended below the recommended height at the threshold of the runway, which could potentially pose a risk to the safety of the aircraft and its occupants. Additionally, the threshold speed was excessively high at 220 kt, which is above the recommended speed for landing.

However, the second landing attempt was more successful, with a good threshold height. The threshold speed was also within the recommended range at 116 kt. The touchdown point was 200 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is slightly off-center but not excessively so. The touchdown speed of 112 kt was a little fast, but the touchdown rate of -398 fpm was firm, indicating a controlled descent.

The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 17°C and a wind speed of 26 kt at 10°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 kt, while the tailwind component was 26 kt, which could have contributed to the slightly fast touchdown speed.

The total landing distance was 1,108 meters, which is 61% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft was able to touch down and come to a stop within a reasonable distance. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain its alignment with the runway centerline during the rollout phase.

Overall, while there were some minor issues with the landing, the Airbus A320 aircraft was able to successfully land at Wellington International Airport with a score of 80.1%.
