The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 6,779 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 1,675 ft past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft, an Airbus A320, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Perth International Airport, taking approximately 10 minutes to cover a distance of 2 nautical miles. The departure roll took place on runway 21, with the aircraft lifting off at a speed of 156 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 71°F and a wind speed of 9 knots from a direction of 240°, resulting in a 6-knot headwind.
As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it began its enroute climb from an initial altitude of 1,098 feet above sea level to a maximum altitude of 36,202 feet above sea level, an increase of 35,104 feet in just 16 minutes, covering a distance of 90 nautical miles. The climb took place over the town of Cloverdale in the state of Western Australia. Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 42 minutes and covered a distance of 332 nautical miles. This phase of the flight took place 16 miles west of the town of Koorda in Western Australia.
The aircraft then began its enroute descent from a maximum altitude of 36,454 feet above sea level to a lower altitude of 9,532 feet above sea level, a decrease of 26,923 feet in just 13 minutes, covering a distance of 90 nautical miles. The descent took place 10 miles southeast of DeGrussa Airport in Western Australia. Following the descent, the aircraft entered another level cruise phase, which lasted for 9 minutes and covered a distance of 43 nautical miles. This phase of the flight took place 21 miles southeast of Bulloo Downs Station Airport in Queensland, Australia.
The aircraft then began its final descent from a maximum altitude of 8,900 feet above sea level to a lower altitude of 3,623 feet above sea level, a decrease of 5,278 feet in just 5 minutes, covering a distance of 9 nautical miles. The descent took place 5 miles northwest of Sylvania Homestead Airport in Western Australia. Following the descent, the aircraft entered a short climb phase, which lasted for 2 minutes and covered a distance of 6 nautical miles. This phase of the flight took place 4 miles northeast of Newman Airport in Western Australia.
The aircraft then entered a final level cruise phase, which lasted for 10 minutes and covered a distance of 7 nautical miles. This phase of the flight took place 2 miles southwest of Newman Airport in Western Australia. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 23 at Newman Airport, flying from the northeast at a heading of 236.0° and at an altitude of 1,363 feet above ground level.
The landing took place on runway 23, which had a length of 6,779 feet. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 89°F and a wind speed of 5 knots from a direction of 138°, resulting in a 5-knot crosswind and a 1-knot tailwind. The touchdown point was 312 feet beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 126 knots, which was slightly faster than the recommended speed. However, the touchdown rate was perfect at -48 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was also perfect.
The total landing distance was 4,259 feet, which was 63% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating a smooth and controlled landing. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, taking approximately 6 minutes to cover a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 586 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 113 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 9,714 pounds
The Airbus A320 successfully landed at Newman Airport, YNWN, with a score of 97.7%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north-east, heading 236.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,363 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was made to runway 23, which has a length of 6,779 feet.
The landing was executed with good threshold height, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct altitude as it approached the runway threshold. The threshold speed of 132 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed during the approach.
However, the touchdown point was 312 feet beyond the touchdown zone, which is slightly off-center. Additionally, the touchdown speed of 126 knots was a bit faster than the recommended speed, which may have contributed to the slightly off-center touchdown. On the positive side, the touchdown rate of -48 feet per minute (fpm) was perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 89°F and a wind speed of 5 knots from 138°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the tailwind component was 1 knot. These conditions did not appear to have a significant impact on the landing.
The total landing distance of 4,259 feet was 63% of the runway length, which is within the acceptable range. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway after touchdown. Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft coming to a stop in a controlled and safe manner.
