  • Arrival Landing · flare: the descent was not taken out−0.06

Next time

Arrival

Fly a steeper descent on final so you cross the threshold at 50 ft.

What happened: You crossed the threshold at 62 ft agl, above the 50 ft agl target. Crossing high like this usually reduces your margin before the touchdown zone ends.

Watch for: Radio altimeter against 50 ft at the threshold.

See Arrival Landing

Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

Speed and pitch

From brake release to the end of the climb, against time, then the takeoff point by point.

Rotated at 157 kt, 3 kt above the 154 kt target, and lifted off at 167 kt 2.4 s later, the nose coming up at 3.2° a second. Climb 3 held close to its 198 kt target, at 196 kt on average.

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 figures at liftoff are the pitch then and how fast the nose came up, in degrees a second. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, the part of the climb scored on holding the climb speed.

Side view from the start of the roll to the end of Climb 3 at 857 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 2,133 m of runway left; gear up at 10 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 2,680 fpm on average to 857 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 gear-up ring is coloured by its mark. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, scored on its average speed against the target.

Plan view the roll down the 3,671 m runway.

Rolled from 64 m in, drifted left of the centreline, 6.4 m at the widest, and lifted off 6.4 m left, in 6 kn of crosswind from the left. Airborne 32 % 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.

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.

At the 1,000 ft gate: centreline more than 1° off and speed more than 5 kt below the approach speed of 148 kt.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 2.1 to 1.4 nm, then not again: left of the centreline from 1.4 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.

The approach to NZWN 34

The final from 4 nm, with the stabilisation gates on it.

Profile height against the 3° glideslope, with its 1° band in green.

Inside the glideslope band from 4 nm to the threshold, never more than 140 ft below the slope.

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.

Plan distance off the extended centreline, your left at the top, with the 1° band. Sideways distances are drawn 3× larger than distances along the final.

Joined 289 m left of the centreline, then inside it from 2.3 to 1.4 nm, then 111 m left of it from 1.4 nm to the threshold.

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.

Speed against the approach speed. The green band runs from 5 kt slow to 37 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 22 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Inside the speed band all the way, between −10 kt and +26 kt on the approach speed of 148 kt.

How to read this

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 flare92.92

The flare held the target profile well. The flare began at 10 ft agl above the runway, lower than this aircraft wants. Touchdown was 489 m past the threshold. Begin raising the nose earlier - a late flare leaves no time to arrest the sink.

The crosswind

7 kt across from the right, which takes about 3° of crab to hold the centreline at 149 kt. Touched down with the nose 4° left of the track, away from the wind, 3° of bank.

Wind 019° at 26 kt · 25 kt head · 7 kt across

How to read this

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. These are the nose against the direction you were actually moving, and the wings, at the moment of touchdown. Shown for reading; not marked.

The stop

From 128 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 11 s, an average deceleration of 0.48 g.

How to read this

Your ground speed from the moment the wheels touched until you were down to taxi speed, against the distance rolled. A steep line is hard braking, a shallow one a long, gentle roll. For scale, an airliner's lowest autobrake setting decelerates at about 0.15 g, a medium one about 0.3 g. Shown for reading; not marked.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 62 ft, 12 ft above the 50 ft target; began the flare late, at 10 ft. Touched down 489 m in, 184 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 1,524 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.

Sink and pitch — through the flare, lined up with the side view.

The sink went from 390 fpm at the flare to 230 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 0.6° on the way down.

How to read this

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.

Flight narrative

The Boeing 777F departed from runway 23L at NZAA Auckland International Airport. Take-off was performed over a distance of 1,172 m (32 % of the runway) with a rotation speed of 157 kt. Local weather was 20 °C with wind 15 kt from 220°, giving a 7 kt crosswind and a 13 kt headwind.

Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl took 17 seconds, averaging 2,477 fpm and reaching 194 kt at the top of the segment. The aircraft then climbed from 971 ft asl to 32,006 ft asl in 13 minutes, covering 83 nm while remaining overhead Auckland.

Cruise was level at 32,000 ft asl for 12 minutes, covering 91 nm, beginning 14 nm south-west of NZTS Taharoa Aerodrome. Descent began from 32,359 ft asl to 1,314 ft asl in 15 minutes, covering 86 nm, starting 24 nm south of Patea.

Final approach to runway 34 at NZWN Wellington International Airport descended from 1,361 ft agl to 43 ft agl in 113 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway met gear down, landing flap, sink rate, glideslope, and wings level; they did not meet centreline (at one gate) and speed (at one gate). Configuration was landing gear down at 2,292 ft agl at 200 kt, and final flap position 6 at 1,356 ft agl at 167 kt.

Landing was on runway 34 (runway length 1,941 m). Threshold height at 62 ft agl was above target and threshold speed was slightly above target at 155 kt. The flare was described as excellent. Touchdown occurred 68 m beyond the touchdown zone with a speed of 149 kt, noted as a little fast, and a rate of -234 fpm, described as fair. Runway-touchdown alignment was very good; there was no bounce. Total landing distance was 915 m (47 % of the runway). Runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 7.7 m from centreline.

Local weather at Wellington was 15 °C with wind 20 kt from 020°, giving a 6 kt crosswind and a 19 kt headwind. Taxi from the runway to parking took less than 1 minute and covered less than 1 nm.

The flight covered 266 nm in 46 minutes and used 64,290 kg of fuel.
