Flight narrative

The flight began with a short taxiing period from the parking to the runway, taking approximately 1 minute and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-700, then departed from runway 36 at NZRO Rotorua Regional Airport in Rotorua, New Zealand. The takeoff distance was 1,032 meters, which accounted for 56% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 147 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 17 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 1 knot at 191 degrees. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and a slight tailwind of 1 knot. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile north of the airport and rising from an altitude of 1,937 feet above sea level to 38,918 feet above sea level, an increase of 36,981 feet in 42 minutes. This climb covered a distance of 257 nautical miles.

Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 151 minutes and covered a distance of 1,251 nautical miles. The cruise phase took place at a latitude of -35.5604917 and a longitude of -179.3280907. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting at a latitude of -21.1583075 and a longitude of -162.0886212. The descent from 38,955 feet above sea level to 2,475 feet above sea level, a decrease of 36,480 feet, took 14 minutes and covered a distance of 186 nautical miles.

The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, this time lasting only 2 minutes and covering a distance of 6 nautical miles. This phase took place 8 miles west of Amuri, Aitutaki, Cook Islands. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting 8 miles northwest of Amuri. The descent from 2,211 feet above sea level to 1,024 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,188 feet, took 2 minutes and covered a distance of 6 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 14 at NCAI Aitutaki Airport was made from the northwest, with a heading of 150.0 degrees at 3 nautical miles and 991 feet above ground level. The landing on the runway was successful, with a touchdown distance of 110 meters, which was good. However, the touchdown speed of 125 knots was slightly fast, and the touchdown rate was hard at -425 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.7 meters from the centerline.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 28 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 6 knots at 70 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 1 knot. The total landing distance was 575 meters, which accounted for 32% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good.

The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took less than 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,710 nautical miles, taking 217 minutes, and the aircraft used 9,666 kilograms of fuel.

Landing Score 96.89 %
Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-700 aircraft successfully landed at NCAI Aitutaki Airport, achieving a score of 96.9%. The final approach was conducted from the north-west, heading 150.0° at 3 nautical miles and 991 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 14, which has a length of 1,818 meters.

The threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed was maintained at 128 knots, indicating a well-executed approach. However, the touchdown speed of 125 knots was slightly higher than desired, which may have contributed to a harder touchdown rate of -425 feet per minute (fpm). This could potentially put additional stress on the aircraft's landing gear and may require further attention from the pilots to improve their touchdown speed control.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.7 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach or during the final stages of the landing. Despite this, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilots maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 28°C and a relatively light wind of 6 knots at 70°. The crosswind component was 6 knots, while the headwind component was 1 knot. The total landing distance of 575 meters was 32% of the runway length, which is within acceptable limits. Overall, the landing was successful, but there are areas for improvement, particularly in terms of touchdown speed control and alignment during the final stages of the approach.
