Next time

Departure

Raise the gear lever promptly once a positive rate of climb is confirmed after liftoff.

What happened: The landing gear was never raised during the initial climb and was still down when the climb ended.

Watch for: Landing gear lever: UP promptly after confirming a positive rate of climb.

See Departure Climb 3

Arrival

Keep the back pressure coming once the flare is established, holding the attitude instead of letting the nose drop.

What happened: Sink came back after the flare had arrested it, and that pattern usually carries the touchdown long - here it landed at 940 m against the 457 m aim point.

Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: a steady, shallow rate through the flare with no renewed sink before touchdown

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

Ground effect becomes significant below about one wingspan of height. A Cessna 172, with a 36 ft span, enters ground effect at flare height - the float it feels in the hold-off is ground effect arriving on cue. An A320, with a span around 117 ft, has been in ground effect since before the threshold and there is no sudden cushion to feel, only a gradual reduction in induced drag that lengthens any float you allow.

Touchdown was 940 m past the threshold. It was on speed over the threshold, so this was more back pressure than the speed could take: raise the nose more slowly and stop as soon as the sink is checked. Once it has ballooned, hold the attitude and let it settle rather than pushing.

Speed and pitch

From brake release to the end of the climb, against time, then the takeoff point by point.

Rotated at 161 kt, 6 kt below the 167 kt target, and lifted off at 166 kt 2.1 s later, the nose coming up at 4.4° a second. Climb 3 averaged 172 kt, 32 kt under its 204 kt target.

How to read this

Two traces from brake release: the airspeed on top, and below it the pitch, which is how far the nose is above the horizon. The dashed green line is the speed to rotate at for this aircraft at its weight, and the green dot is where the nose started to come up. The figures at liftoff are the pitch then and how fast the nose came up, in degrees a second. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, the part of the climb scored on holding the climb speed.

The takeoff from the side: the height above the runway against the distance along it. The numbers along the runway are the speeds reached at each point. Lifting off in the amber last quarter of the runway costs marks for the roll length. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, scored on its average speed against the target.

Plan view the roll down the 3,284 m runway.

Rolled from 146 m in, drifted left of the centreline, 6.4 m at the widest, and lifted off 5 m left. Airborne 62 % of the way down the runway, before the 75 % line.

How to read this

The roll from above, with your left at the top. The line is where the wheels went, and "widest" is the furthest you drifted off the centreline. Lifting off before the amber 75 % line gets full marks for the roll length. The arrow beside the runway is the crosswind, pointing the way the air was moving, so it pushed the aircraft that way.

The stabilisation gates

Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 4 nm to 0.3 nm, then not again: left of the centreline from 0.3 nm to the threshold.

How to read this

Each line is one of the gate checks, run along the whole final rather than only at the gates: green where it would have passed, amber where it would not. The glideslope, centreline and speed lines use the bands in the charts beside this card. The sink rate is allowed what the glideslope needs at your ground speed plus 600 fpm, the wings 10° of bank, and the gear and flap are read from when you moved the levers. The bottom line is green where every check held at once, ignoring blips shorter than 0.2 nm, and the sentence above it says from where it held to the threshold. A ring is a stabilisation gate, where the checks in the table were taken.

The final from 4 nm, with the stabilisation gates on it.

Profile height against the 3° glideslope, with its 1° band in green.

Inside the glideslope band from 4 nm to the threshold, never more than 50 ft above the slope.

How to read this

Your height above the runway against the distance still to go. The glideslope is the steady descent path to the aiming point, 305 m past the threshold: 3° here, which is about 320 ft for every nautical mile out, crossing the threshold at about 50 ft. The row under the distances is the height it puts you at. Inside the green band your path is drawn green; outside it, amber. A ring is a stabilisation gate: green when every check there passed, amber with the failed checks named beside it.

How to read this

Looking down from above, flying left to right towards the runway: up the page is left of the centreline, down is right. Sideways distances are stretched so that small drifts show, so a line that looks wild here may be only a few tens of feet. The labels are how far off you were at each distance, amber when outside the band.

Speed against the approach speed. The green band runs from 5 kt slow to 35 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 21 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

How to read this

Your indicated airspeed down the final, against the approach speed for this aircraft at its landing weight. The band allows 5 kt slow and more on the fast side further out, closing as you get lower, because the speed is expected to come off on the way down. The figures are knots above (+) or below (−) the approach speed.

The flare81.92

The flare mostly held the target profile. The flare took all the sink out 9 ft agl above the runway and the aircraft then dropped the rest of the way, 630 fpm of sink coming back. Touchdown was 940 m past the threshold. It was on speed over the threshold, so this was more back pressure than the speed could take: raise the nose more slowly and stop as soon as the sink is checked. Once it has ballooned, hold the attitude and let it settle rather than pushing.

The crosswind

9 kt across from the left, which takes about 4° of crab to hold the centreline at 136 kt. Touched down with 2° of it still on, wings level.

Wind 156° at 10 kt · 2 kt head · 9 kt across

How to read this

The wind is the one recorded at the landing, split along the runway (headwind or tailwind) and across it. To hold the centreline in a crosswind the nose points a little into wind - the crab - and is straightened with rudder just before the wheels touch, often with the into-wind wing lowered to stop the drift. These are the nose against the direction you were actually moving, and the wings, at the moment of touchdown. Shown for reading; not marked.

The stop

From 130 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 28 s, an average deceleration of 0.19 g.

How to read this

Your ground speed from the moment the wheels touched until you were down to taxi speed, against the distance rolled. A steep line is hard braking, a shallow one a long, gentle roll. For scale, an airliner's lowest autobrake setting decelerates at about 0.15 g, a medium one about 0.3 g. Shown for reading; not marked.

Side view — the last 2,000 m of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 48 ft, close to the 50 ft target; began the flare at 32 ft; ballooned 8 ft from 5 ft. Touched down 940 m in, 635 m past the ideal 305 m.

How to read this

The last stretch of the approach and the touchdown, from the side. The height is stretched so that the last few feet show: 80 ft top to bottom, against 2,000 m across. The dashed line is the ideal, 50 ft over the threshold and down 305 m in. The flare ring is where you began raising the nose, and "descent slowed" is where the sink came off; the figures beside them are the sink rate, pitch and speed at that point.

Sink and pitch — through the flare, lined up with the side view.

From the flare the descent stopped and turned into a climb of 230 fpm before coming down at 380 fpm to touch. The nose came up 1.0° on the way down.

Lined up with the side view above, so a point on one sits under the same point of the other. On top, how fast you were coming down: 0 is level, and −600 is 600 ft a minute down. Below, the pitch. In a flare the nose comes up and the descent slows towards 0. The figure at the touchdown line is your touchdown rate.

The runway from above, with your left at the top. Touching down inside the green bracket scores full marks for the distance. The shaded part is the rollout, up to where it ended. The arrow beside the runway is the crosswind, pointing the way the air was moving, so it pushed the aircraft that way.

Flight narrative

The Boeing 777-300ER taxied from the parking area to runway 05R at NZAA Auckland International Airport, a taxi of 11 minutes covering 2 nm.

Take-off was on runway 05R. The aircraft used 2,052 m of runway, 62 % of the available length, and rotated at 161 kt. Local weather was 16 °C, wind 3 kt from 047°, with a 1 kt cross-wind and a 3 kt head-wind.

Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl took 27 seconds, averaging 1,851 fpm and reaching 177 kt at the top of the segment. The climb continued from 1,023 ft asl to 35,004 ft asl in 18 minutes, covering 119 nm, beginning 1 mile west of Wiri.

Cruise was level at 35,500 ft asl for 226 minutes, covering 2,005 nm, starting 69 miles east of NZGR Great Mercury Airport.

Descent began from 35,986 ft asl to 1,397 ft agl in 22 minutes, covering 127 nm, starting 49 miles west of FN02 French Polynesia Moving Carrier - FrenchCDG, with a brief level-off at 3,000 ft asl.

The first final approach to runway 22 at NTAA Faa’a International Airport descended from 1,409 ft agl to 89 ft agl in 94 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway were met for gear down, landing flap, sink rate, glideslope, centreline, speed and wings level. Configuration was landing gear down at 2,104 ft agl, 156 kt; final flap position 6 at 3,083 ft agl, 170 kt.

A go-around was executed on runway 22 at 60 ft agl, followed by a second go-around on the same runway at 176 ft agl.

The subsequent final approach to runway 22 descended from 1,397 ft agl to 81 ft agl in 97 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft were again met for gear down, landing flap, sink rate, glideslope, centreline, speed and wings level. Configuration remained landing gear down at 2,104 ft agl, 156 kt; final flap position 6 at 3,083 ft agl, 170 kt.

Landing on runway 22 (runway length 3,288 m) had a good threshold height. Threshold speed was slightly above target at 149 kt. The flare was described as very good, with the aircraft ballooning in the flare. Touchdown occurred 523 m beyond the touchdown zone, at 136 kt, with a firm touchdown rate of minus 378 fpm. The touchdown point was misaligned by 17.5 m from the centreline. Local weather was 28 °C, wind 10 kt from 156°, with a 10 kt cross-wind and a 2 kt head-wind. No bounce occurred.

Total landing distance was 1,926 m, 59 % of the runway, and rollout alignment was misaligned by 24.4 m from the centreline.

Taxi from the runway to the parking area took less than 1 minute and covered less than 1 nm.

Overall, the flight covered 2,353 nm in 312 minutes and used 39,001 kg of fuel.
