The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 14 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, an Airbus A330-900, then departed from runway 07R at Hong Kong International Airport (VHHH). The takeoff distance was 1,922 meters, which accounted for 53% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 166 knots.
As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb 1 mile north of Tung Chung, an area in the Islands District of Hong Kong. The climb began at an altitude of 976 feet above sea level and reached a maximum altitude of 38,989 feet above sea level, an increase of 38,013 feet in 22 minutes. The enroute climb covered a distance of 126 nautical miles.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 46 miles southeast of Jieshi, a city in Guangdong Sheng, China. This phase lasted for 71 minutes and covered a distance of 586 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent 33 miles north of Zhaobaoshan, a city in Zhejiang Sheng, China. The descent started at an altitude of 38,981 feet above sea level and ended at an altitude of 1,267 feet above sea level, a decrease of 37,713 feet in 26 minutes. The enroute descent covered a distance of 42 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 17L at Shanghai Pudong International Airport (ZSPD) was made from the north, heading 161.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,247 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was made on runway 17L, which had a length of 4,010 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 135 knots.
The touchdown distance was 361 meters, which was a good result. However, the touchdown speed of 135 knots was a little fast, and the touchdown rate was hard at -432 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The local weather at the time of landing was characterized by a temperature of 17 degrees Celsius.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, which took 5 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 762 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 139 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 10,752 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

The Airbus A330-900 successfully landed at ZSPD Shanghai Pudong International Airport, achieving a high score of 96.3%. The aircraft was approaching runway 17L from the north, heading 161.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,247 feet above ground level (agl).
The pilot executed a precise final approach, taking into account the runway's length of 4,010 meters. The threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed was maintained at 135 knots, which is a good indicator of the pilot's control and adherence to standard operating procedures.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's touchdown distance was within acceptable limits at 361 meters. However, the touchdown speed of 135 knots was slightly higher than desired, indicating that the pilot may have been able to flare the aircraft more effectively to achieve a smoother touchdown. The touchdown rate of -432 feet per minute (fpm) was also considered hard, suggesting that the aircraft may have touched down with a bit too much force.
Despite these minor issues, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's skill and attention to detail. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 17°C, did not appear to have any significant impact on the landing.
The total landing distance of 1,571 meters was 39% of the runway's length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and avoided any deviations from the centerline.
Overall, the landing was a success, with the pilot demonstrating a high level of skill and proficiency. However, there is room for improvement in terms of touchdown speed and touchdown rate to achieve an even smoother and more controlled landing.
