The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
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.
At the 1,000 ft gate: sink rate 1,590 fpm, more than the glideslope needed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,190 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 324 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Miami International Airport, the Airbus A350-900 began its journey on runway 08R, taking off with a distance of 1,471 meters, which accounted for 46% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 156 knots, with a gentle tailwind of 1 knot and minimal crosswind. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 17°C and a light breeze of 1 knot from the west.
As the aircraft climbed out of Miami, it began its enroute climb, reaching an altitude of 40,799 feet in 19 minutes, covering a distance of 129 nautical miles. The climb was smooth, with a steady increase in altitude from 1,002 feet above sea level. The aircraft then entered a level cruise, maintaining an altitude of 40,799 feet for 49 minutes, covering a distance of 813 nautical miles. This phase of the flight was characterized by a steady and efficient cruise, with the aircraft making good use of its fuel reserves.
As the aircraft approached its destination, Princess Juliana International Airport, it began its enroute descent, reducing its altitude from 41,000 feet to 1,533 feet in 15 minutes, covering a distance of 129 nautical miles. The final approach was made from the west, with the aircraft aligning itself with runway 10. The landing was successful, with a touchdown distance of 430 meters and a touchdown speed of 127 knots. However, the touchdown rate was slightly higher than desired, at -443 feet per minute. The aircraft taxied to the parking area, concluding its journey of 1,078 nautical miles, which had taken 96 minutes and consumed 12,799 kilograms of fuel.
The aircraft touched down on runway 10 at TNCM Princess Juliana International Airport with a slightly above-target threshold speed of 131 kt. The approach quality was good, with a well-executed final approach from the west, heading 82.0° at 4 nm and 1,508 ft above ground level. The threshold height was satisfactory, allowing for a smooth transition to the runway.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was a little fast at 127 kt, resulting in a hard touchdown rate of -443 fpm. The touchdown distance of 430 m was within acceptable limits, and the aircraft remained on the runway for a total distance of 1,297 m, which equates to 57% of the runway length. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.9 m from the centreline, which may have been due to the slight tailwind of 1 kt.
The rollout phase was notable for its excellent alignment, with the aircraft staying on course. The overall performance of the landing was satisfactory, with a score of 96.4%. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15 °C and a light wind of 1 kt at 269°, did not pose any significant challenges to the landing.
