Next time

Departure

Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.

What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 6.4 m off the runway centreline.

Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.

See Departure Roll

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

Flight narrative

Departing Queenstown International Airport, the Airbus A320 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 9 minutes and covered 4 nautical miles. As the aircraft reached the end of runway 23, it initiated its departure roll, accelerating down the 1,885-meter-long runway. The takeoff distance of 965 meters accounted for 54% of the available runway length, and the aircraft lifted off at a speed of 134 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius, with a gentle headwind of 7 knots and a crosswind of 7 knots.

As the aircraft climbed away from Queenstown, it began its enroute climb, ascending from 1,996 feet above sea level to 19,008 feet in just 7 minutes, covering a distance of 34 nautical miles. The climb profile was characterized by a significant increase in altitude, with a total ascent of 17,012 feet. Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, maintaining an altitude of 19,008 feet for 5 minutes as it covered 38 nautical miles. The cruise phase was punctuated by a series of descents and level-off segments, with the aircraft descending from 18,901 feet to 6,221 feet in 8 minutes, covering 46 nautical miles. The final descent phase saw the aircraft descend from 5,796 feet to 1,330 feet in 6 minutes, covering 16 nautical miles.

As the aircraft approached Dunedin International Airport, it initiated its final approach to runway 21, aligning itself with the runway from the north-east. The approach was characterized by a heading of 236.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,315 feet above ground level. The aircraft landed on the 1,885-meter-long runway, with a touchdown distance of 243 meters and a touchdown speed of 123 knots, which was slightly above the recommended threshold speed. The touchdown rate was high at -538 feet per minute, but the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took 4 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 160 nautical miles, and the aircraft used 1,520 kilograms of fuel during the journey, which took a total of 45 minutes.
