Arrival

On final, make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline.

What happened: The approach drifted off the centreline, and the aircraft touched down 29 m off the centreline before the rollout continued 14 m off it. Drifting off the centreline on approach usually carries through to touchdown and the rollout in the same direction.

Watch for: Centreline: track it with small rudder corrections, wings level.

See Arrival ApproachArrival LandingArrival Rollout

On a 3° glideslope your sink rate in feet per minute is roughly your groundspeed in knots times five (5.3, strictly). A Cessna 172 at 65 kt groundspeed is coming down at about 345 fpm. An A320 at 140 kt groundspeed is coming down at about 740 fpm. the entire job of the flare is to take that 350 to 750 fpm and reduce it to something in the normal band, in roughly the last five seconds of the flight.

Speed and pitch

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

Rotated at 149 kt, 15 kt below the 164 kt target, and lifted off at 154 kt 1.3 s later, the nose coming up at 4.2° a second. Climb 3 averaged 169 kt, 11 kt under its 180 kt target.

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 900 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 1,734 m of runway left; gear up at 64 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 1,720 fpm on average to 900 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.

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 stabilisation gates

One stabilised approach gate: seven checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out. These checks are the approach's score.

At the 500 ft gate: centreline more than 1° off.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 0.6 to 0.4 nm, then not again: left of the centreline 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.

The approach to NZAA 23L

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

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

Low from 4 nm to 1.4 nm (up to 570 ft under), then back on it to the threshold.

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.

Outside the 1° band 3 times; furthest 1,067 m left at 4.0 nm.

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 38 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 23 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Inside the speed band all the way, between −8 kt and +15 kt on the approach speed of 152 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 flare40.62

The flare strayed well off the target profile. The flare began at 4 ft agl above the runway, lower than this aircraft wants. Touchdown was 338 m past the threshold. Begin raising the nose earlier - a late flare leaves no time to arrest the sink.

The crosswind

No crosswind: nothing to correct for. Touched down with the nose 4° left of the track, wings level.

Wind 249° at 11 kt · 11 kt head · 0 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.

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

Crossed the threshold at 52 ft, close to the 50 ft target; began the flare late, at 4 ft. Touched down 338 m in, close to 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 stayed between 480 fpm and 520 fpm from the flare to the runway. 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 787-10 taxied from its parking position to runway 23L at NZAA Auckland International Airport in less than 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm during the movement.

During the departure roll on runway 23L, the aircraft accelerated through a takeoff distance of 1,484 m, representing 40 % of the runway length, and lifted off at 155 kt. Ambient conditions were 19 °C with a wind from 249° at 12 kt; the cross-wind component was 0 kt and the head-wind component was 12 kt.

The climb began approximately 1 mile southwest of the airport, with the aircraft climbing from 973 ft asl to 1,469 ft asl, an increase of 496 ft achieved in less than 1 minute while covering less than 1 nm.

Level cruise was established about 2 miles southwest of the airport and persisted for 6 minutes, during which the aircraft flew 18 nm.

Descent commenced roughly 1 mile north of Papakura, descending from 1,323 ft asl to 469 ft asl, a loss of 855 ft over 2 minutes while covering 6 nm.

The final approach to runway 23L was flown from the east on a heading of 251.0°, intercepting the glide path at 2 nm and 446 ft agl.

Landing on runway 23L, which is 3,671 m long, occurred with a threshold speed of 147 kt. Touchdown was recorded at 337 m down the runway with a speed of 151 kt and a hard touchdown rate of minus 586 fpm. The touchdown point was laterally displaced by 17.9 m from the centreline. Weather at the time was 17 °C with a wind from 251° at 18 kt; cross-wind remained 0 kt and head-wind 18 kt.

The total landing roll measured 1,167 m, equivalent to 32 % of the runway, and the rollout was laterally misaligned by 17.2 m from the centreline.

In summary, the flight covered a total distance of 29 nm, taking 10, and consumed 1,671 kg of fuel.
