The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 5,566 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,566 ft of the 9,681 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 978 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 12 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, an Airbus A300, then departed from runway 34 at Melbourne International Airport (YMML). The takeoff distance was 6,416 feet, which accounted for 53% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 164 knots.
As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 65°F and a wind speed of 1 knot at 270°. The crosswind was 1 knot, while the headwind was 0 knots. The enroute climb began approximately 1 mile east of Bulla, in the state of Victoria, Australia. The aircraft climbed from an altitude of 1,483 feet above sea level to 34,729 feet above sea level, an increase of 33,246 feet, in 24 minutes and covering a distance of 146 nautical miles.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 2 miles south of Natimuk, also in the state of Victoria, Australia. This phase lasted for 21 minutes and covered a distance of 151 nautical miles. The enroute descent began 10 miles southwest of Brooklands Air Park (YBAK) in the state of South Australia, Australia. The aircraft descended from an altitude of 34,513 feet above sea level to 893 feet above sea level, a decrease of 33,620 feet, in 20 minutes and covering a distance of 49 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 05 at Adelaide International Airport (YPAD) was made from the southwest, heading at 54.0°, at an altitude of 873 feet above ground level and a distance of 3 nautical miles. The landing was made on runway 05, which had a length of 9,681 feet. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 148 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 988 feet, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 143 knots. The touchdown rate was good at -194 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 90°F and a wind speed of 15 knots at 329°. The crosswind was 15 knots, while the headwind was 3 knots. The total landing distance was 5,322 feet, which accounted for 55% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
In total, the flight covered a distance of 355 nautical miles and took 78 minutes to complete. The aircraft used 15,270 pounds of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A300 successfully landed at YPAD Adelaide International Airport, achieving a score of 99.7%. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the south-west, heading 54.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 873 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was made to runway 05, which has a length of 9,681 feet.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down with a speed of 143 knots, which was slightly above the target speed. However, the touchdown distance of 988 feet was considered good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was also very good, suggesting that the pilot maintained a stable and aligned approach.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 90°F and a wind speed of 15 knots from a direction of 329°. This resulted in a crosswind of 15 knots and a headwind of 3 knots. Despite these conditions, the pilot successfully managed the aircraft, achieving a good touchdown rate of -194 feet per minute (fpm).
The total landing distance of 5,322 feet was 55% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, suggesting that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score and demonstrating good handling and control.
