Flight narrative

The flight in question was conducted on a Boeing F/A-18E aircraft, departing from runway 15 at YAMB RAAF Base Amberley. The taxiing process from the parking area to the runway took less than a minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

Upon departure, the aircraft lifted off the runway at a speed of 184 knots, covering a takeoff distance of 800 meters, which accounted for 26% of the runway length. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 33 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 18 knots at a direction of 40 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 16 knots and a tailwind of 9 knots.

The enroute climb started overhead Purga, where the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 942 feet above sea level to 4,808 feet, an increase of 3,866 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 14 nautical miles. The climb was followed by a series of enroute level cruises and descents, with the aircraft passing over various locations in the state of Queensland, Australia, including Bundamba, Bowen Hills, Cannon Hill, Bardon, and Petrie Terrace.

One of the notable climbs occurred from Petrie Terrace, where the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 285 feet to 12,971 feet, an increase of 12,686 feet in just 3 minutes, covering a distance of 19 nautical miles. The descent from this altitude to 1,330 feet was also significant, with a decrease of 11,647 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 20 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 15 at YAMB RAAF Base Amberley was conducted from the north, with the aircraft heading 315.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,243 feet above ground level and a distance of 1 nautical mile from the runway threshold. However, a go-around was initiated at an altitude of 22 feet above ground level.

The landing was eventually completed on runway 15, with the aircraft touching down 107 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 133 knots, which was considered good, and the touchdown rate was also good at -196 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 7.7 meters from the centerline, and the local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 30 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 13 knots at a direction of 70 degrees.

The total landing distance was 1,426 meters, which accounted for 47% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 7.7 meters from the centerline. The total flight distance was 129 nautical miles, taking 23 minutes to complete, and the aircraft used 1,910 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing Summary

The Boeing F/A-18E aircraft successfully landed at YAMB RAAF Base Amberley, but with some notable deviations from the ideal approach and landing parameters. The final approach was initiated from the north, heading 315.0° at 1 nautical mile and 1,243 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 15, which has a length of 3,056 meters.

The threshold height at 71 feet agl was significantly above the target, indicating that the aircraft was higher than desired at the point of touchdown. Furthermore, the threshold speed was excessively high at 232 knots, which is a critical parameter that needs to be managed to ensure a safe and controlled landing. Despite these deviations, the touchdown speed of 133 knots was good, and the touchdown rate of -196 feet per minute (fpm) was also satisfactory.

However, the touchdown point was 107 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which indicates that the aircraft landed slightly further down the runway than intended. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 7.7 meters from the centerline, which may have contributed to the slightly longer landing distance. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 30°C and a wind speed of 13 knots at 70°, with a crosswind component of 13 knots and a headwind component of 0 knots.

The total landing distance of 1,426 meters was 47% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. Nevertheless, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 7.7 meters from the centerline, which may have required some corrective action from the pilot to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.

Overall, while the landing was successful, there were some notable deviations from the ideal approach and landing parameters. These deviations highlight the importance of precise control and management of the aircraft's speed, height, and alignment during the final approach and landing phases.
