Landing on runway 13 at VHHX Hong Kong International Airport Kai Tak in the Boeing 777-200ER

Landing Score 61.68 %

Landing Summary

The Boeing 777-200ER aircraft has successfully landed on runway 13 at VHHX Hong Kong International Airport Kai Tak, but the landing performance was not ideal. The aircraft scored 61.7%, indicating room for improvement. The threshold height at 126 ft above ground level (agl) was significantly higher than the target, which may have been due to the aircraft's initial approach path.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was 139 kt, which was slightly above the target speed. This may have contributed to the heavy touchdown rate of -629 fpm, indicating a rapid descent upon touchdown. The touchdown point was 399 m beyond the designated touchdown zone, which suggests that the aircraft may have landed slightly longer than intended.

The runway touchdown position was also significantly misaligned by 27.3 m from the centreline, which may have been due to the aircraft's approach path or the pilot's control inputs during the landing. This misalignment was also evident during the runway rollout, where the aircraft remained off-centreline by 27.3 m.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 29 °C and wind speeds of 11 kt at 190°. The crosswind component was 9 kt, while the headwind component was 6 kt. These conditions were not particularly challenging, and the aircraft's performance may have been affected by other factors such as the pilot's experience and the aircraft's configuration.

Overall, the landing performance of the Boeing 777-200ER at VHHX Hong Kong International Airport Kai Tak was satisfactory, but there is room for improvement in terms of threshold height, touchdown speed, and runway alignment.
