Departing from Hamilton Island Airport, the Airbus A320 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took approximately 9 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. With the local weather conditions indicating a temperature of 24 °C and a headwind of 21 kt, the aircraft took off from runway 14, utilizing 51% of the available runway length. The takeoff distance was 867 meters, and the liftoff speed was achieved at 155 kt.

As the aircraft climbed to 15,000 ft asl, it covered a distance of 29 nautical miles in 6 minutes, demonstrating a steady ascent. The enroute climb phase was followed by a level cruise, which started 2 miles north of Riordanvale and lasted for 7 minutes, covering 58 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, initially from 14,953 ft asl to 6,001 ft asl, a decrease of 8,952 ft in 7 minutes, covering 40 nautical miles. This was followed by a brief level cruise phase, lasting 2 minutes and covering 14 nautical miles, before the aircraft continued its descent to 1,137 ft asl in 2 minutes, covering 15 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 19 at Townsville Airport was initiated from the north east, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 203.0° at 2 nautical miles and 1,114 ft agl. However, a go-around was executed at 1,094 ft agl. The aircraft subsequently landed on runway 19, with a touchdown point 112 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 122 kt, and the touchdown rate was -226 fpm. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline, and the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned. The total landing distance was 1,109 meters, accounting for 45% of the available runway length. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, a process that took approximately 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 256 nautical miles, and the aircraft utilized 2,597 kg of fuel during the flight, which lasted 53 minutes.

Landing Score 89.91 %

Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 19 at YBTL Townsville Airport / RAAF Base Townsville was conducted from the north east, heading 203.0° at 2 nm and 1,114 ft above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 127 kt, which was within the acceptable range. The aircraft maintained a steady descent, touching down at a speed of 122 kt, which was also within the desired parameters.

However, the touchdown characteristics were not entirely optimal, with a touchdown rate of -226 fpm, which was considered fair. The touchdown point was 112 m beyond the touchdown zone, indicating a slight over-run. Furthermore, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 10.9 m from the centreline, which could have contributed to the over-run. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 20 °C and a headwind of 8 kt, were not particularly challenging.

The total landing distance of 1,109 m was 45% of the runway length, which was within the acceptable range. During the rollout phase, the aircraft was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 11.1 m, which was a minor deviation. Overall, the landing was considered satisfactory, with a score of 89.9%. While there were some minor deviations from the desired parameters, the pilot's performance was generally good, and the aircraft was brought to a safe stop within a reasonable distance.
