Top opportunity

Slow the descent speed

Enroute Descent

Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering it.

Landing Summary

The Boeing 727-200 aircraft successfully landed at YSSY Sydney Kingsford Smith International Airport on runway 25. The final approach was executed from the east, heading 255.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,293 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated a high level of proficiency in its approach, achieving a score of 98.5%.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down at a distance of 424 meters, which was considered good. The touchdown speed of 133 knots was also within acceptable limits, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the touchdown rate of -282 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, suggesting that the aircraft could have maintained a more stable rate of descent.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 14°C and a wind speed of 11 knots from 340°. This resulted in a crosswind of 11 knots and a headwind of 1 knot. Despite these conditions, the aircraft maintained perfect runway touchdown alignment, indicating a high degree of control and precision.

The total landing distance of 1,256 meters was 52% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. This suggests that the pilot was able to maintain a high level of control and precision throughout the landing, resulting in a smooth and efficient touchdown.

The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and bring it to a stop in a safe and controlled manner. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft demonstrating a high level of proficiency and control throughout the approach and landing phases.
