Flight narrative

Departing from Zürich Airport (LSZH), the Boeing 747-8 began its journey on runway 32, taking off with a distance of 1,797 meters, which accounted for 57% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 185 knots, with a local temperature of 18°C and a moderate headwind of 3 knots. The wind direction was from 239°, resulting in a crosswind of 14 knots.

As the aircraft climbed out of Zürich, it reached an altitude of 35,984 feet above sea level, an increase of 33,572 feet from the initial 2,412 feet. This climb phase took 17 minutes and covered 99 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 3 minutes and covered 22 nautical miles. Subsequent climb phases took the aircraft to higher altitudes, with a final level cruise phase lasting 592 minutes and covering 3,964 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, reducing its altitude from 40,006 feet to 1,282 feet in 25 minutes and covering 146 nautical miles.

The Boeing 747-8 landed on runway 30 at Miami International Airport (KMIA), with a touchdown distance of 132 meters and a speed of 135 knots. However, the touchdown rate was heavy at -970 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline. The aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking 2 minutes and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 4,263 nautical miles, taking 652 minutes and consuming 83,516 kilograms of fuel.

Landing Summary

The Boeing 747-8 touched down on runway 30 at KMIA Miami International Airport with a good threshold height, allowing the pilots to maintain a stable approach. The threshold speed of 135 kt was within acceptable limits, indicating a well-executed approach. However, the touchdown speed of 135 kt was slightly above the recommended range, resulting in a heavy touchdown rate of -970 fpm. This excessive rate may have contributed to the aircraft's misaligned touchdown position, which was 10.2 m off the centreline.

The touchdown distance of 132 m was within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilots' ability to control the aircraft's descent. The total landing distance of 782 m, accounting for 31% of the runway length, was also satisfactory. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.1 m from the centreline, indicating a minor deviation from the desired path. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 27 °C and wind speeds of 10 kt at 47 °, did not appear to significantly impact the landing.

Overall, the landing performance of the Boeing 747-8 on runway 30 at KMIA Miami International Airport was satisfactory, with a score of 88.9%. While there were some minor deviations from the desired approach and touchdown characteristics, the pilots demonstrated a good understanding of the aircraft's performance and were able to maintain control throughout the landing.
