This flight was operated by a Boeing 747-8 aircraft, and it took less than a minute to taxi from the parking area to the runway at the Melbourne International Airport (YMML), a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The departure roll began on runway 16, and the takeoff distance required was 1,384 meters, which was approximately 38% of the runway.

During takeoff, the aircraft lifted off the ground at a speed of 170 knots. Local weather conditions at the time of departure included a temperature of 17°C, with a wind blowing at 20 knots from 267°, resulting in a crosswind of 20 knots and a tailwind of 2 knots.

After taking off, the enroute climb started over the Melbourne Airport, and the aircraft ascended from 1,355 feet above sea level (asl) to 4,618 feet asl in 1 minute, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles. This climb was part of a larger enroute climb segment that began overhead the Kealba area, where the aircraft entered a level cruise flight mode that lasted for 3 minutes, covering an additional 5 nautical miles.

As the flight progressed, the enroute descent started 1 mile southwest of Caroline Springs, and the aircraft descended from 4,674 feet asl to 1,231 feet asl in 6 minutes, covering a distance of 11 nautical miles. This descent brought the aircraft close to the final approach to runway 16 at the Melbourne International Airport.

However, the flight deviated from the normal approach procedure, as a go-around maneuver was initiated from an altitude of 612 feet above ground level (agl) over the runway. After the go-around, the aircraft made a standard landing approach to runway 16, touching down the runway at a speed of 153 knots. Local weather conditions at the time of landing included a temperature of 15°C, with a wind blowing at 1 knot from 270°, resulting in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 0 knots.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's touchdown point was 205 meters beyond the touchdown zone, indicating a slight over-run on the runway. The touchdown rate was heavy, with a rate of -636 feet per minute (fpm). Furthermore, the runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 22.2 meters from the centreline. After landing, the runway rollout was also misaligned, with the aircraft departing from the runway centreline by 21.4 meters.

In terms of the aircraft's performance, the total landing distance was 1,835 meters, which was approximately 50% of the available runway length. The total flight distance covered was 25 nautical miles, and the flight took approximately 12 minutes to complete. The aircraft consumed 2,669 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 16 at YMML Melbourne International Airport in the Boeing 747-8

Landing Summary

Comprehensive Landing Report for Boeing 747-8 at YMML Melbourne International Airport

On the final approach to runway 16, the aircraft began its descent from a distance of 4 nautical miles to the north, with a heading of 168.0° at an altitude of 841 feet above ground level. Although the aircraft maintained a good threshold speed of 161 knots, the threshold height was above the targeted height, which could potentially lead to a rough touchdown if not managed properly.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft came into contact with the runway surface at 153 knots, which is considered a good speed, but unfortunately resulted in a heavy touchdown rate of -636 fpm. This significant rate of descent indicates that the aircraft may have been touching down harder than expected, which could lead to potential damage to the landing gear and potentially even injuries to occupants if not managed carefully.

Another key aspect of the landing was the runway touchdown position, which was significantly misaligned by 22.2 meters from the centerline. This misalignment occurred despite the initial good approach and could be attributed to a combination of factors, including wind resistance, aircraft alignment issues, or pilot error. Furthermore, the runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 21.4 meters from the centerline upon exiting the runway, indicating a persistent issue with maintaining alignment during the landing process.

The landing distance itself was a concern, with the aircraft covering a total distance of 1,835 meters, which equates to approximately 50% of the available runway length. This could be a concern in the event of any potential go-around requirement, where a longer runway length would be necessary to regain lift and safely climb away.

The local weather conditions on the day of the landing reported a relatively calm environment, with a temperature of 15°C and wind speeds of only 1 knot from the western direction. This indicates that the adverse weather conditions were minimal, reducing the risk of landing difficulties due to environmental factors.
