Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown distance was 579 m at 87 %, −0.13 points

Next time

Arrival

Fly a slightly steeper approach path to cross the threshold at 50 ft agl instead of 102 ft agl.

What happened: The aircraft crossed the threshold at 102 ft agl against a 50 ft agl target, above the normal profile. This fault pattern is often followed by a long touchdown beyond the target point, and here the aircraft touched down at 579 m against a 457 m target.

Watch for: Radio altimeter against the 50 ft threshold crossing target on short final.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

Even a modest height error carries straight through to the touchdown. Geometry alone says that crossing the threshold 10 feet high on a 3° path moves your touchdown roughly 190 feet further down the runway before the flare adds anything.

A slow rotation

The nose came up at 148 kt against the 145 kt rotate speed, and rose at 1.2° a second, slower than the 1.9 to 2.7 other Airbus A319 pilots fly.

The rotation started on speed but the nose came up slowly. Make it one positive, continuous pull at the normal rate for this aircraft, rather than easing the nose up in steps.

Plan view the roll down the 3,078 m runway.

Rolled from 120 m in, drifted right of the centreline, 8.4 m at the widest, and lifted off 7.2 m right. Airborne 60 % 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.

Side view from the start of the roll to the end of Climb 3 at 930 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 794 m of runway left; gear up at 212 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 1,960 fpm on average to 930 ft.

How to read this

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 dark stretch of the roll is the run with the nose up and the wheels still on, with its length and time under the runway. The gear-up ring is coloured by its mark. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, scored on its average speed against the target.

Speed and pitch from brake release to the end of the climb, against time.

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 grey band is the run between the nose coming up and the wheels leaving the runway. The figures at liftoff are the pitch then and how fast the nose came up, in degrees a second. The rotation detail below draws the rotation against the rates for this aircraft and its tail-strike pitch, where the slope reads properly. The grey dashed line across the pitch is the attitude held from 35 ft to the end: a nose held steady is a climb speed that holds, and the airspeed trace sits directly above it to compare.

Rotation detail the pitch over the seconds from rotation to 35 ft, where the slope reads properly.

How to read this

The pitch over the seconds from the nose starting to come up to 35 ft, stretched so the slope reads properly. The green dot is where the nose started up, the grey band runs to the wheels leaving, and the figures at liftoff are the pitch then and how fast the nose came up. The two dashed green lines rising from the rotation point are 1.9 to 2.7° a second, the middle half of rotation rates flown by other Airbus A319 pilots over the last 180 days (50 takeoffs); the grey pair are 2 to 3° a second, the rates airliners are rotated at. A trace steeper than both green lines is a faster rotation than most, one shallower than both a slower one. The red dashed line is 13.9°, the pitch at which this aircraft's tail touches the runway with the wheels still on it, drawn from rotation to liftoff only: once the wheels leave, every foot climbed adds tail clearance.

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 0.4 nm, then not again: high from 0.4 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.

On the glideslope from 4 nm to 0.4 nm, then high to the threshold (up to 60 ft over).

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.

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 flare tracked the target profile closely

The flare was flown from 102 ft agl over the threshold, well above the target height, so the aircraft was above the profile for most of the landing. Touchdown was 579 m past the threshold. The flare cannot recover height that was never lost - fly the approach down to the aim point and the flare has somewhere to start from.

Side view — the last 1,818 m of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 101 ft, 51 ft above the 50 ft target; began the flare at 12 ft. Touched down 579 m in, 275 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 1,818 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.

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.

How to read this

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. 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. The sentence gives the nose against the direction you were actually moving as the wheels touched, and the steepest bank as they touched, the figure the touchdown's Bank tile marks. The rest of it is shown for reading, not marked.

Flight narrative

The Airbus A319 taxied from the parking area to runway 36 at YPLM Learmonth Airport in 11 minutes, covering 2 nm, and departed on a take-off run of 1,860 m (60 % of the runway). Rotation was achieved at 146 kt. Local weather was 32 °C with a wind of 5 kt from 060°, giving a 4 kt crosswind and a 3 kt headwind.

Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl took 26 seconds, averaging 1,821 fpm and reaching 185 kt at the top of the climb. The aircraft then climbed from 965 ft asl to 36,999 ft asl in 15 minutes, covering 101 nm, beginning about 1 mile north of YPLM. Level flight at 37,000 ft asl continued for 50 minutes, covering 398 nm, starting roughly 5 miles north of YWGE Wandagee Station.

Descent from 37,022 ft asl to 3,128 ft asl took 23 minutes and covered 128 nm, beginning 12 miles north of YDWU Dalwallinu Airport. A level segment at 2,500 ft asl lasted 2 minutes over 5 nm, overhead Bentley. The aircraft then climbed from 2,507 ft asl to 3,019 ft asl in 2 minutes, covering 5 nm, overhead Orange Grove. A further level leg at 3,000 ft asl lasted 3 minutes over 9 nm, starting 1 mile south of Martin. Descent from 3,005 ft asl to 1,427 ft asl took 3 minutes, covering 6 nm, overhead Harrisdale.

Final approach to runway 03 at YPPH Perth International Airport began with a descent from 1,415 ft agl to 131 ft agl in 110 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. The landing gear was down at 2,113 ft agl at 132 kt, and the final flap position 5 was selected at 2,608 ft agl at 144 kt.

The aircraft landed on runway 03, whose length is 3,446 m. The threshold height at 102 ft agl was excessively over target, while the threshold speed of 125 kt was good. The flare was described as excellent; the aircraft crossed the threshold high. Touchdown occurred 165 m beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 125 kt, noted as a little fast, with a vertical rate of minus 280 fpm, which was fair. Runway-touchdown alignment was perfect, there was no bounce, and the total landing distance was 1,737 m (50 % of the runway). Runway rollout alignment was very good.

Local weather at Perth was 20 °C with a wind of 6 kt from 279°, giving a 6 kt crosswind and no headwind. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.

The flight covered a total of 662 nm in 108 minutes and used 3,513 kg of fuel.
