The climb phase was followed by a 58-minute level cruise, covering 320 nautical miles, initiated 15 miles northwest of Okato. The aircraft then entered a series of enroute descents, with the first commencing 13 miles south of Mesopotamia Station Airstrip (NZPL), where it descended from 37,678 feet to 10,103 feet, a decrease of 27,574 feet, over a distance of 95 nautical miles, within a 16-minute period. The subsequent level cruise phase, lasting only 2 minutes, covered 7 nautical miles, initiated 6 miles south of Wanaka Airport (NZWF).

Landing on runway 23 at NZQN Queenstown International Airport in the Airbus A320

Landing Score 91.25 %

Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 23 at NZQN Queenstown International Airport from the east was executed with a heading of 255.0° at 3 nautical miles and 1,331 feet above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height. However, the threshold speed was excessively high at 178 knots, indicating a potential for a longer landing distance.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 141 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 163 knots, which was too fast. The touchdown rate of -154 feet per minute was good, indicating a controlled descent. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.5 meters from the centreline, which may have contributed to the excessive landing distance. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 9°C and a headwind of 2 knots, were relatively calm, with a crosswind of 1 knot and a tailwind component of 2 knots.

The total landing distance of 1,260 meters was 69% of the runway length, indicating a relatively long landing distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was very good, with the aircraft maintaining a consistent path along the centreline. Overall, the landing performance scored 91.2%, with areas for improvement identified in terms of threshold speed and touchdown speed.
