What went well

1.14 G at touchdown — inside band
Airborne in 1,401 m — 46 % of the runway
Held the centreline on the roll — 0.01 m off at liftoff

What held you back

Arrival Rollout — GPWS warning; Landing distance 2,266 m at 0 %, Runway alignment max 29.85 m right at 2 %, −4.24 points
Arrival Landing — GPWS warning; Threshold speed was excessively high at 258 kt at 0 %, Flare profile at 0 %, −3.48 points
Arrival Touchdown — GPWS warning; Touchdown distance was 1,223 m at 0 %, Speed at touchdown 201 kt at 0 %, −2.18 points

Next time

Departure

Rotate sooner, bringing the nose up at 149 kt rather than letting speed build further.

What happened: You lifted off at 170 kt against a rotation target of 149 kt, rotating late in the ground roll.

Watch for: Watch airspeed and rotate at the target of 149 kt.

See Departure Roll

Arrival

Reduce power earlier on final so threshold speed settles at 125 kt instead of carrying it into the flare.

What happened: You crossed the threshold at 258 kt, well above the 125 kt target speed, and that excess speed was still showing at touchdown. Crossing the threshold fast usually carries straight through to a fast touchdown.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator against 125 kt on short final.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

Every knot above Vref is stored kinetic energy, and energy stored at the threshold must be dissipated in ground effect before the aeroplane will stop flying. Because kinetic energy scales with the square of speed, the excess you must dissipate grows fast. At a 45-knot approach, five knots hot is over a tenth more speed and roughly a quarter more energy to get rid of in ground effect. This is why the fix is never in the flare. It was decided three miles earlier, on final, at the airspeed indicator.

Flight narrative

A flight took off from EBLG Liège Airport's runway 04R, with the Airbus A380 departing the ground after a 1,352-meter roll, which was 44% of the available runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 170 knots, with a moderate wind of 17 knots at 225 degrees. The wind had a significant impact on the flight, providing a significant tailwind component and affecting the overall trajectory and final approach.

The enroute climb started overhead Hollogne-aux-Pierres in Wallonia, Belgium, where the aircraft began its ascent from a low altitude of 1,617 feet above sea level to a high altitude of 26,800 feet asl. This was an impressive climb, covering an altitude increase of 25,184 feet in just 7 minutes, with a distance of 13 nautical miles. Following the initial climb, the aircraft leveled off and then resumed climbing again, this time overhead Olen in Flanders, Belgium.

The next section of flight saw the aircraft level off and then descend to a lower altitude over Meerhout, Belgium, before climbing again from Hueckelhoven in Germany. The aircraft climbed from an altitude of 18,551 feet asl to 27,597 feet asl, an increase of 9,046 feet in just 5 minutes, covering 41 nautical miles. Following this climb, the aircraft leveled off and then prepared for descent again over Nachrodt-Wiblingwerde in Germany. The final descent commenced over Balve, Germany, and the aircraft dropped from an altitude of 27,771 feet asl to a relatively low altitude of 2,307 feet asl, a decrease of 25,464 feet in 10 minutes.

After the final descent, the aircraft approached runway 24 at EDLP Paderborn Lippstadt Airport from the north east, aligning with a heading of 228.0 degrees at 3 miles from the runway. The aircraft began its final approach from a height of 1,544 feet above ground level and landed on the 2,175-meter-long runway. However, the aircraft touched down at an excessive speed of 201 knots, with a high touchdown rate of -409 feet per minute, and a runway touchdown position that was significantly misaligned from the centerline by 12.3 meters.

Following the landing, the aircraft completed the roll, with the total landing distance being 2,266 meters, which was 104% of the runway length. The runway rollout also saw a misalignment from the centerline by 29.8 meters. Overall, the flight covered a distance of 189 nautical miles, took 46 minutes to complete, and utilized 9,486 kilograms of fuel throughout the journey.

Landing Score 42.96 %
Landing Summary

On the occasion of an Airbus A380 landing at Paderborn Lippstadt Airport (EDLP), the pilots displayed a subpar performance, ultimately resulting in a score of 43.0%. The aircraft was approaching runway 24 from the north east, and the pilots maintained a heading of 228.0° at an altitude of 1,544 ft above ground level (agl). The aircraft was still at a distance of 3 nautical miles (nm) from the runway when these parameters were recorded.

Upon landing on the 2,175-meter runway, the pilots failed to meet the desired threshold height at 89 ft agl, indicating an excessive height at the threshold. This is often seen as a precursor to a hard landing or loss of control on short final. Additionally, the threshold speed was excessively high at 258 kt, suggesting inadequate control and slow response to speed adjustments as the aircraft approached the runway.

The aircraft made a particularly long touchdown, utilizing over 50% of the available runway. This suggests that the pilots had difficulty in judging the optimal touchdown point. Furthermore, the touchdown speed at 201 kt was excessively fast, leading to a hard touchdown. The rate of descent during this phase, standing at -409 ft per minute (fpm), also contributed to the severity of the touchdown.

Moreover, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 12.3 meters from the centreline, indicating that the pilots could not maintain accurate alignment with the runway. Local weather conditions included a temperature of 12 °C and winds of 9 kt at 240°. The resulting crosswind and headwind conditions stood at 1 kt and 9 kt, respectively.

The total landing distance covered by the aircraft was 2,266 meters, representing 104% of the available runway. Post-landing, the pilots also encountered further issues during the rollout, with the aircraft misaligned by 29.8 meters from the centreline. This highlights a persistent problem with centreline alignment both during and after landing, underscoring the need for pilots to work towards improving their alignment and control during the landing phase.
