Arrival Taxi

Twenty knots on a monitor produces the visual sensation of about ten. The advice to "taxi at a walking pace" cannot fix this, because your sense of walking pace is exactly the thing that's broken. Put the groundspeed readout in your scan and obey it for the next fifty flights, the way a student pilot leans on the airspeed indicator before learning to read attitude.

Flight narrative

The aircraft accelerated on runway 05R at NZAA Auckland International Airport, using a takeoff distance of 938 m (29 % of the runway). Liftoff was achieved at 159 kt. Ambient conditions were 35 °C with a wind of 3 kt from 001°, giving a 3 kt cross-wind component and a 1 kt head-wind component.

Climb commenced directly overhead the airport, rising from 348 ft asl to 1,728 ft asl - a gain of 1,380 ft - in 1 minute while covering 2 nm.

Cruise began 1 mile south-west of Wiri and continued for 4 minutes, during which the aircraft travelled 12 nm at level flight.

During the final approach to runway 05R the aircraft was positioned 2 nm east of the threshold, heading 73.0° from the west at 943 ft agl.

The descent segment reduced altitude from 1,253 ft agl to 68 ft agl in 81 seconds, and the flight was recorded as having scored on the stabilisation gates.

Touchdown occurred on runway 05R, whose length is 3,284 m. The threshold speed was slightly above the target at 125 kt. The aircraft contacted the runway 80 m beyond the touchdown zone at 116 kt, with a touchdown rate of minus 268 fpm. The touchdown point was offset 3.5 m from the centreline.

Rollout distance measured 906 m (28 % of the runway). Alignment during rollout was off centreline by 8.2 m.

The aircraft taxied to parking in 2 minutes, covering less than 1 nm before reaching the stand.

In total the flight covered 21 nm, took 9 minutes, and consumed 578 kg of fuel.

Landing on runway 05R at NZAA Auckland International Airport in the Boeing 737 MAX 8
Landing Score 94.85 %
Landing Summary

The Boeing 737 MAX 8 entered final approach to runway 05R at Auckland International Airport from the west on a heading of 73.0° at 2 nm and 943 ft agl. At the 1,000 ft gate the approach was assessed as unstable, being off the glideslope, and the aircraft descended from 1,253 ft agl to 68 ft agl in 81 seconds while maintaining the indicated heading.

During the threshold and flare segment the runway presented a good threshold height, but the threshold speed was slightly above target at 125 kt. Touchdown occurred 80 m beyond the designated touchdown zone with a touchdown speed of 116 kt, which was rated good, and a touchdown rate of minus 268 fpm, rated fair. The aircraft’s touchdown point was slightly misaligned, being 3.5 m off the centreline.

The touchdown phase confirmed the earlier figures: the aircraft touched down 80 m beyond the touchdown zone, at 116 kt, with a vertical rate of minus 268 fpm, and the touchdown position remained 3.5 m from the centreline.

In rollout the aircraft travelled a total landing distance of 906 m, representing 28 % of the 3,284 m runway, and the rollout alignment was slightly off, measured at 8.2 m from the centreline. Local weather was 20 °C, wind 3 kt from 224°, with a 1 kt crosswind component and a 2 kt tailwind component.

To improve the score, focus on achieving a stabilized approach within the 1,000 ft gate and maintaining the glideslope to eliminate the unstable-approach condition. Additionally, refine centreline tracking during rollout to reduce the 8.2 m deviation and ensure a more precise alignment after touchdown.
