Top opportunity

Shorten the long landing

Arrival Touchdown

Ground effect becomes significant below about one wingspan of height. A Cessna 172, with a 36 ft span, enters ground effect at flare height - the float it feels in the hold-off is ground effect arriving on cue. An A320, with a span around 117 ft, has been in ground effect since before the threshold and there is no sudden cushion to feel, only a gradual reduction in induced drag that lengthens any float you allow.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 15 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 16 at Wellington International Airport (NZWN). The takeoff distance was 1,017 meters, which accounted for 56% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 155 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 17 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 15 knots blowing from 169 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 15 knots. The aircraft climbed to a height of 22,176 feet above sea level, an increase of 21,129 feet from the initial altitude of 1,047 feet, in just 9 minutes and covering a distance of 53 nautical miles.

The enroute climb phase started over Wellington International Airport and continued until the aircraft reached a cruising altitude. The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 5 minutes and covered a distance of 37 nautical miles. This phase started 22 miles south of the Cape Campbell airstrip in Blenheim, New Zealand.

The aircraft then began its descent, which started 12 miles south of Kaikoura, New Zealand. The descent phase lasted for 16 minutes and covered a distance of 77 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from a height of 22,139 feet to 2,907 feet above sea level. The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 1 mile south of the West Melton Aerodrome in Rolleston, New Zealand, and lasted for 5 minutes, covering a distance of 13 nautical miles.

The aircraft then began its final descent, which started over Dunsandel, New Zealand. The descent phase lasted for 2 minutes and covered a distance of 4 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from a height of 2,920 feet to 1,957 feet above sea level. The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 3 miles east of Dunsandel and lasted for 5 minutes, covering a distance of 12 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 02 at Christchurch International Airport (NZCH) was made from the southwest, with the aircraft heading 39.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,611 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 02, which had a length of 3,289 meters. The threshold height at 69 feet above ground level was above the target, but the threshold speed was good at 134 knots.

The touchdown point was 661 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was a little fast at 134 knots. The touchdown rate was firm at -382 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 12 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 8 knots blowing from 69 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 7 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,423 meters, which accounted for 43% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 14.7 meters from the centerline. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 38 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 202 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 55 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 2,966 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 02 at NZCH Christchurch International Airport in the Boeing 737-800
Landing Score 82.08 %
Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at Christchurch International Airport, achieving an overall score of 82.1%. The final approach to runway 02 was initiated from the south-west, with a heading of 39.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,611 feet above ground level.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway, with the threshold height being above the target at 69 feet above ground level. However, the threshold speed was satisfactory at 134 knots, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown point was located 661 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which may indicate a slight deviation from the intended landing spot.

The touchdown speed of 134 knots was slightly faster than desired, resulting in a firm touchdown rate of -382 feet per minute. Despite this, the runway touchdown alignment was deemed very good, suggesting that the aircraft was well-aligned with the runway during the landing process.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 12°C, with a wind speed of 8 knots from a direction of 69°. This resulted in a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 7 knots, which may have contributed to the slight deviation from the intended landing spot.

The total landing distance was 1,423 meters, accounting for 43% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft was able to touch down and come to a stop within a reasonable distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 14.7 meters from the centerline, suggesting that the aircraft may have drifted slightly during the rollout phase.

Overall, the landing was considered satisfactory, with the aircraft achieving a good threshold speed and a short landing distance. However, there were some minor deviations from the intended landing spot, which may be addressed through further training and practice.
