Departure Roll

A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

Flight narrative

A flight originating from London Heathrow Airport departed runway 27R, utilizing 1,560 meters of the available runway to achieve liftoff at a speed of 173 knots. The aircraft encountered a local temperature of 18 degrees Celsius and a wind of 16 knots from 189 degrees, resulting in a 15-knot crosswind and a 3-knot headwind. As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it transitioned to an enroute climb phase, ascending from 1,102 feet above sea level to 26,903 feet in 14 minutes, covering a distance of 84 nautical miles.

The enroute climb phase was punctuated by periods of level cruise, with the first occurring 30 miles north-west of Vattetot-sur-Mer, France, lasting 11 minutes and covering 78 nautical miles. The aircraft then climbed to 34,917 feet in 7 minutes, covering 55 nautical miles, before entering a prolonged level cruise phase that lasted 83 minutes and spanned 683 nautical miles. This pattern of climb and cruise was repeated several times, with the aircraft making a final climb to 37,880 feet before entering the enroute descent phase. The descent from 39,176 feet to 6,806 feet took 23 minutes, covering 142 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 21R at O.R. Tambo International Airport was initiated from the north, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 136 knots and a distance of 429 meters. The touchdown rate was good at -198 feet per minute, but the touchdown speed was slightly above the target. The aircraft taxied to the parking area in 5 minutes, covering less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 4,991 nautical miles, with a total fuel consumption of 62,250 kilograms and a flight duration of 10 hours and 5 minutes.

Landing Summary

The aircraft, an Airbus A350-1000, commenced its final approach to runway 21R at O.R. Tambo International Airport from the north, aligning with the runway heading of 196.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,275 feet above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height achieved. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 140 knots, indicating a slight deviation from the optimal landing speed.

As the aircraft touched down on the runway, the touchdown distance was good at 429 meters, but the touchdown speed of 136 knots was a little fast, suggesting a slight loss of control during the flare. The touchdown rate, however, was good at -198 feet per minute, indicating a controlled descent. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.6 meters from the centreline, which would require correction during the rollout phase. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 16°C and a headwind of 7 knots, contributed to a relatively smooth landing.

The total landing distance of 1,221 meters, which accounted for 31% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. During the rollout phase, the aircraft's alignment was slightly misaligned by 7.9 meters from the centreline, requiring correction to maintain a straight path. Overall, the landing performance was satisfactory, with a score of 97.4%. While there were some minor deviations from the optimal landing parameters, the aircraft's systems and the pilot's skills ensured a safe and controlled landing.
