The Airbus A330-900 entered the final approach to runway 23L at Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport from the north-east on a heading of 229.0° at 4 nm and 1,244 ft AGL. The approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits, and the local weather was 33 °C with wind 9 kt from 340°, including an 8 kt crosswind and a 3 kt tailwind.
At threshold the aircraft maintained a good threshold speed of 140 kt and the touchdown distance was good at 8 m. The touchdown speed of 140 kt was noted as a little fast, and the touchdown rate was heavy at minus 696 fpm, with the runway touchdown position slightly misaligned by 3.5 m from the centreline.
The landing covered a total distance of 1,328 m, representing 40 % of the 3,348 m runway length, and the overall touchdown performance reflected the speed and rate characteristics previously described.
Runway rollout alignment was very good, with the aircraft remaining on the centreline throughout the deceleration phase.
For future landings, reducing the flare height to moderate the descent rate and fine-tuning the approach speed to be marginally below the threshold value will help lessen the heavy touchdown rate while preserving the good alignment achieved.
