Flight narrative

The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 6 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-MAX8, then departed from runway 29 at NVVV Bauerfield International Airport in Port Vila, Vanuatu. The takeoff distance was 1,088 meters, which accounted for 42% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 155 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 29 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 2 knots at 89 degrees. The crosswind was 1 knot, while the tailwind was 2 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile northwest of the airport and reaching an altitude of 34,425 feet above sea level. This climb, which covered 101 nautical miles, took 17 minutes and involved an increase of 33,338 feet in altitude.

Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 79 miles northeast of NVIS Isangel Airport in Isangel, Vanuatu. This cruise phase lasted for 38 minutes and covered 307 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, starting at a latitude of -17.6909578 and a longitude of 175.4776815. The descent, which covered 87 nautical miles, took 13 minutes and involved a decrease of 23,131 feet in altitude.

The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, this time starting 5 miles west of NFMA Mana Island Airport in Mana Island, Fiji. This cruise phase lasted for 2 minutes and covered 8 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent once again, starting 2 miles east of the airport. The descent, which covered 11 nautical miles, took 5 minutes and involved a decrease of 7,251 feet in altitude.

The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting 3 miles southeast of NFFO Malolo Lailai Island Airport in Malolo Lailai Island, Fiji. This cruise phase lasted for 2 minutes and covered 6 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent once again, starting 3 miles south of NFRS Treasure Island Seaplane Base in Treasure Island Resort, Fiji. The descent, which covered 7 nautical miles, took 2 minutes and involved a decrease of 2,152 feet in altitude.

The final approach to runway 09 at NFFN Nadi International Airport was made from the west, with the aircraft heading 104.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,276 feet above ground level. The landing on the runway was successful, with a touchdown distance of 323 meters and a touchdown speed of 129 knots. The touchdown rate was hard at -417 feet per minute, but the threshold height and speed were good.

The total landing distance was 747 meters, which accounted for 35% of the runway. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 10.0 meters from the centreline, and the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 9.7 meters from the centreline. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile.

The total flight distance was 533 nautical miles, and the flight took 87 minutes to complete. The aircraft used 1,502 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 09 at NFFN Nadi International Airport in the Boeing 737 MAX 8
Landing Score 93.09 %
Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-MAX8 aircraft successfully landed at Nadi International Airport, with a score of 93.1%. The final approach to runway 09 was initiated from the west, heading 104.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,276 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach was characterized by a good threshold height, indicating that the pilots maintained a safe altitude prior to touchdown.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was recorded at 135 knots, which is within the acceptable threshold speed range. The touchdown distance of 323 meters was also within the expected parameters, demonstrating the pilots' ability to control the aircraft's descent and landing. However, the touchdown speed of 129 knots was slightly lower than the threshold speed, which may indicate a slightly harder landing than intended.

One area for improvement was the touchdown rate, which was recorded at -417 feet per minute (fpm), classified as hard. This may indicate that the pilots could have applied more gentle braking or reverse thrust to reduce the rate of descent. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 10.0 meters from the centerline, which may have contributed to the slightly harder landing.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 27°C, which is typical for tropical regions like Nadi. The total landing distance of 747 meters was 35% of the runway length, indicating that the pilots were able to bring the aircraft to a stop within a reasonable distance.

During the rollout phase, the aircraft's alignment was slightly misaligned by 9.7 meters from the centerline, which may have been a result of the initial touchdown position being off-center. Overall, the landing was successful, but there are areas for improvement, particularly in terms of touchdown rate and alignment.
