Flight narrative

The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 8 minutes and covered a distance of 4 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 787-9, then departed from runway 21 at DIAP Félix-Houphouët-Boigny International Airport in Abidjan, Ivory Coast. The takeoff distance was 868 meters, which accounted for 29% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 151 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 30 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 5 knots from a direction of 210 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 5 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, which started overhead the airport and took the aircraft up to a height of 35,837 feet above sea level. This climb phase covered a distance of 65 nautical miles and took 13 minutes, with the aircraft increasing its altitude by 34,760 feet.

Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 9 minutes and covered a distance of 66 nautical miles. This phase started 11 miles east of DITI Tiapoum Airport in Tiapoum, Ivory Coast. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 15 miles northeast of Aboso in Ghana. This descent phase took the aircraft down from a height of 36,355 feet to 2,428 feet above sea level, a decrease of 33,927 feet in 27 minutes, covering a distance of 102 nautical miles.

The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which lasted for 3 minutes and covered a distance of 9 nautical miles. This phase started 6 miles north of Tema in Ghana. The final approach to runway 21 at DGAA Kotoka International Airport in Accra, Ghana, was made from the north, with the aircraft heading 202.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,271 feet above ground level.

The landing on runway 21 was successful, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 137 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown distance was 105 meters, and the touchdown rate was firm at -362 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 13.3 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 29 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 4 knots from a direction of 259 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 2 knots.

The total landing distance was 972 meters, which accounted for 32% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 12.9 meters from the centerline. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 251 nautical miles, and the flight took 60 minutes to complete. The aircraft used 4,907 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 21 at DGAA Kotoka International Airport in the Boeing 787-9
Landing Score 93.07 %
Landing Summary

The Boeing 787-9 aircraft successfully landed at Kotoka International Airport's runway 21 with a score of 93.1%. The final approach was initiated from the north, heading 202.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,271 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach was executed with a good threshold height, indicating that the pilots maintained a safe distance from the runway surface.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold speed was recorded at 136 knots, which is within the acceptable range. However, the touchdown speed of 137 knots was slightly above the optimal speed, suggesting that the pilots may have been able to flare the aircraft more effectively to achieve a smoother touchdown. The touchdown rate of -362 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, indicating that the aircraft's descent was controlled and stable.

Despite the good threshold speed and touchdown rate, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 13.3 meters from the centerline. This deviation may have been due to factors such as crosswind or pilot error. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 29°C and a wind speed of 4 knots from 259°. The crosswind component was 4 knots, while the headwind component was 2 knots.

The total landing distance of 972 meters was 32% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft was able to stop within a reasonable distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 12.9 meters from the centerline, suggesting that the pilots may have had difficulty maintaining a straight course during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some minor deviations from the optimal performance.
