Aircraft departed from Auckland International Airport (NZAA), taxiing from the parking area to the runway 05R in under a minute, covering a short distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The departure roll commenced on runway 05R, with the aircraft taking off after a distance of 1,321 meters, which accounted for 40% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 165 knots, with a local temperature of 20°C and wind conditions of 15 knots at 9°. The crosswind component was 13 knots, while the headwind component was 7 knots.

As the aircraft climbed away from Auckland International Airport, it transitioned into an enroute climb phase, reaching an altitude of 1,606 feet above sea level from an initial altitude of 992 feet. This climb phase covered a distance of 2 nautical miles and was completed in 1 minute, resulting in an increase of 614 feet in altitude. The enroute level cruise phase followed, lasting 7 minutes and covering a distance of 19 nautical miles, with the aircraft flying 1 mile south of Wiri. The final approach phase commenced from the southwest, with the aircraft descending from an altitude of 1,391 feet above ground level to touch down on runway 05R.

The landing was executed on runway 05R, which had a length of 3,285 meters. The threshold height was satisfactory, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 148 knots. The touchdown point was 79 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 148 knots, which was considered fast. The touchdown rate was firm at -384 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 11.4 meters from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 12.5 meters from the centerline. The total landing distance was 1,031 meters, accounting for 31% of the runway length. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 1 minute. The total flight distance was 27 nautical miles, with a flight time of 12 minutes and a fuel consumption of 1,156 kilograms.

Landing on runway 05R at NZAA Auckland International Airport in the Airbus A330-900

Landing Score 91.86 %

Landing Summary

The aircraft touched down on runway 05R at NZAA Auckland International Airport, a 3,285-meter-long runway, after a final approach from the south west. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height achieved. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 148 knots, indicating a slight deviation from the optimal landing speed. The touchdown point was 79 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed of 148 knots was faster than desired, resulting in a firm touchdown rate of -384 feet per minute.

The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 11.4 meters from the centreline, which could have contributed to the slightly misaligned runway rollout alignment of 12.5 meters from the centreline. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 17 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 16 knots at 0 degrees, resulting in a 15-knot crosswind and a 5-knot headwind. The aircraft's performance was satisfactory, with a total landing distance of 1,031 meters, which accounted for 31% of the runway length.

The overall landing performance scored 91.9%, indicating a good but not exceptional landing. The deviations from the optimal landing speed and touchdown position alignment contributed to the slightly lower score. However, the aircraft's ability to maintain control and stability during the landing phase was satisfactory, and the crew's handling of the aircraft was competent.
