The rest of the report
The Airbus A220-300 taxied from the parking area to runway 24L at KLAX in less than one minute, covering less than one nautical mile.
During the departure roll on runway 24L, the aircraft accelerated to a liftoff speed of 152 kt and became airborne after traveling 4,460 ft, which represented 44 % of the runway length; ambient temperature was 82 °F with a wind of 7 kt from 259°, providing a 7 kt headwind and zero crosswind.
Climb commenced one mile northwest of El Segundo, California, where the airplane rose from 849 ft asl to 31,801 ft asl, an altitude gain of 30,952 ft achieved in 23 minutes while covering 148 nm.
Level cruise began three miles northeast of KCSL (O Sullivan AAF-NG) and lasted seven minutes, during which the flight covered 57 nm at cruise altitude.
Descent was initiated twelve miles northwest of KHGT (Hunter Liggett) and proceeded from 31,778 ft asl down to 812 ft asl, a loss of 30,966 ft over 17 minutes, traversing 98 nm.
The final approach to runway 28R at KSFO was flown from the southeast on a heading of 298.0° at a distance of four nautical miles and an altitude of 797 ft agl; local conditions were 68 °F with a wind of 3 kt from 211°, yielding a 0 kt headwind and a 3 kt crosswind.
Landing on runway 28R, which is 11,537 ft long, was executed with a threshold speed of 139 kt; touchdown occurred 824 ft down the runway at 135 kt, with a firm touchdown rate of minus 335 fpm and a lateral deviation of 12 ft from the centreline, and the total landing distance measured 3,928 ft, or 34 % of the runway.
Runway rollout alignment was reported as very good, and the aircraft came to a stop within the calculated landing distance.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in four minutes, covering less than one nautical mile.
In total, the flight covered 310 nm, required 55 minutes, and used minus 8,431 lbs of fuel.
The Airbus A220-300 entered the final approach to runway 28R at KSFO from the south-east on a heading of 298.0° at 4 nm and 797 ft agl. The approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1 000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits. Local weather was 68 °F with a wind of 3 kt from 211°, giving a 3 kt cross-wind component and no head-wind.
During the threshold and flare phase the threshold speed was good at 139 kt and the threshold height was good. The aircraft flared to achieve a touchdown distance of 824 ft and a touchdown speed of 135 kt, both rated good. The touchdown rate was firm at minus 335 fpm and the touchdown point was slightly misaligned by 12 ft from the centreline.
Touchdown occurred with the aircraft aligned close to the centreline, the slight 12 ft offset noted, and the firm vertical rate of minus 335 fpm. Speed and distance remained within the good limits recorded for the phase.
Rollout used a total landing distance of 3 928 ft, representing 34 % of the 11 537 ft runway, and runway rollout alignment was very good.
With a final score of 96.6 % the landing was strong; focus on tightening centreline alignment to eliminate the 12 ft offset and moderating the flare to reduce the firm touchdown rate for an even smoother landing.
