What went well

Touchdown 383 m in — inside the full-score zone
Straight touchdown — 1.19 m off the centreline, no bounce
Lifted off at 161 kt — on the 156 kt target

What held you back

Arrival Landing — GPWS warning; Flare profile at 71 %, Threshold speed was slightly above target at 149 kt at 89 %, −1.12 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown rate was -380 fpm at 58 %, −1.00 points

Next time

Arrival

Close the throttles earlier on final so you cross the threshold at 137 kt rather than carrying excess speed.

What happened: The aircraft crossed the threshold at 149 kt, 12 kt above the 137 kt target, and the nose was then only raised 1° in the flare, taking out little of the sink. Crossing the threshold fast like this usually carries extra energy into a flare that barely arrests the sink, and that combination usually ends in a firm touchdown.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 137 kt at the threshold.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

Flight narrative

The Airbus A380-800 taxied to runway 05R at NZAA Auckland International Airport and commenced the departure roll. The aircraft used a takeoff distance of 1,903 m, representing 58 % of the available runway, and lifted off at 161 kt. Ambient conditions were 20 °C with a wind of 4 kt from 110°, including a 2 kt cross-wind component and a 3 kt head-wind component.

Climb began directly overhead NZAA, with the airplane accelerating from 986 ft asl to 1,474 ft asl, an altitude gain of 488 ft achieved in 1 minute while covering 3 nm.

Level cruise was established 2 nm southwest of Wiri, persisting for 4 minutes and encompassing a distance of 12 nm.

During the final descent the aircraft reduced altitude from 1,336 ft agl to 81 ft agl in 98 seconds.

The final approach to runway 05R at NZAA was executed under conditions of 19 °C, wind 2 kt from 110°, with a 1 kt cross-wind and a 2 kt head-wind component, and the flight was recorded as having scored on the stabilisation gates.

Landing on runway 05R, whose length is 3,284 m, occurred with a threshold speed of 149 kt, slightly above the target. Touchdown was recorded 383 m down the runway at a speed of 144 kt; the aircraft settled with a firm touchdown rate of minus 380 fpm and maintained very good runway alignment.

In total the flight covered 20 nm, lasted 7 minutes, and consumed 1,890 kg of fuel.

Landing Summary

The Airbus A320neo completed the final approach to runway 02 at LPPT Humberto Delgado Airport from the south, tracking a heading of 23.0 ° at 4 nm and 1,281 ft agl. The approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits, and the local weather was 23 °C with wind 5 kt at 310 °, including a 5 kt crosswind and a 2 kt headwind.

During the threshold and flare phase the threshold height was good and the threshold speed was good at 138 kt. The aircraft maintained the appropriate configuration and height for a smooth flare.

Touchdown occurred with a distance of 251 m, a speed of 135 kt that was good, and a rate of descent that was good at minus 186 fpm. Runway touchdown alignment was very good.

Rollout used a total landing distance of 970 m, representing 26 % of the 3,710 m runway, and runway rollout alignment was perfect.

With a final score of 99.6 % the landing was excellent; minor refinements should focus on preserving the consistent touchdown point near 250 m and maintaining the touchdown speed around 135 kt to keep performance at this high level.
