Top opportunity

Shorten the long landing

Arrival Touchdown

Ground effect becomes significant below about one wingspan of height. A Cessna 172, with a 36 ft span, enters ground effect at flare height - the float it feels in the hold-off is ground effect arriving on cue. An A320, with a span around 117 ft, has been in ground effect since before the threshold and there is no sudden cushion to feel, only a gradual reduction in induced drag that lengthens any float you allow.

The following cruise phase started 36 miles east of UAFZ Kazarman Airport and continued for 173 minutes, during which 1,529 nm were traversed.

A fourth climb was initiated 48 miles east of ZUJZ Jiuzhai Huanglong Airport, Ngawa (Songpan), Sichuan Sheng, climbing from 38,999 ft asl to 41,001 ft asl, a rise of 2,002 ft in 3 minutes while covering 30 nm.

The final cruise segment began 20 miles north of Jiangyou, Sichuan Sheng, and lasted 107 minutes, during which 835 nm were flown.

Descent began overhead Foshan, Guangdong Sheng, with the aircraft descending from 41,000 ft asl to 1,267 ft asl, a loss of 39,733 ft in 26 minutes and covering 158 nm.

The final approach to runway 07L at VHHH Hong Kong International Airport was executed from the south-west, on a heading of 71.0°, at 4 nm and 1,228 ft agl.

Landing on runway 07L, which is 3,733 m long, occurred with a threshold speed slightly above target at 137 kt. The touchdown point was 384 m beyond the touchdown zone, the touchdown speed was 148 kt, and the touchdown rate was minus 163 fpm. Runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the total landing distance measured 1,889 m, representing 51 % of the runway.

Runway rollout alignment was very good.

The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in less than 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm.

In total, the flight covered 5,959 nm, required 687 minutes, and consumed 2,266 kg of fuel.

Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 07L at VHHH Hong Kong International Airport was flown from the south-west on a heading of 71.0° at 4 nm and 1,228 ft agl, with a temperature of 29 °C, wind 5 kt from 63°, a 1 kt cross-wind component and a 5 kt head-wind component.

At threshold the aircraft was slightly above the target speed, recording 137 kt, and the threshold height was reported as good.

Touchdown occurred 384 m beyond the designated touchdown zone; the aircraft was fast at 148 kt, though the vertical rate of -163 fpm was good and runway touchdown alignment was very good.

The rollout covered 1,889 m, representing 51 % of the 3,733 m runway, and runway rollout alignment remained very good.

To refine the already strong performance, reduce the touchdown speed toward the target value and aim to touch down within the touchdown zone rather than beyond it, which will further optimise landing distance and alignment.
