This flight was operated by an Airbus A320 aircraft, which began its enroute climb from a starting point 13 miles southeast of Wellington International Airport (NZWN) in Wellington, New Zealand. The aircraft climbed from an initial altitude of 3,490 feet above sea level (asl) to 2,939 ft asl, resulting in an increase of 551 feet over a period of 2 minutes and covering a distance of 5 nautical miles.
As the flight continued, the aircraft initiated its enroute descent from a point 8 miles south of NZWN Wellington International Airport. The descent took place from an altitude of 2,839 ft asl to 1,299 ft asl, resulting in a decrease of 1,540 feet over a period of 2 minutes and covering a distance of 5 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 34 at NZWN Wellington International Airport was conducted from the south, with the aircraft heading at 8.0 degrees and maintaining a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. At an altitude of 1,254 feet above ground level (agl), the aircraft began its descent onto the runway.
Upon landing on runway 34, which has a length of 1,815 meters, the aircraft touched down with a speed of 115 knots, which was considered good. However, the touchdown rate was heavy at -624 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.2 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing included a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius, a wind speed of 17 knots at 90 degrees, and a crosswind of 17 knots and a headwind of 1 knot.
The total landing distance covered by the aircraft was 1,045 meters, which accounted for 58% of the runway length. During the rollout, the aircraft's alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.2 meters from the centerline. The flight distance was 14 nautical miles, and the total fuel consumption was 77 kilograms. The flight duration was 6 minutes.

The Airbus A320 successfully landed at Wellington International Airport, with a score of 91.3%. The aircraft approached the runway from the south, heading 8.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,254 feet above ground level (agl). The landing was executed on runway 34, which has a length of 1,815 meters.
The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 121 knots, which may have been due to the aircraft's descent rate or the pilot's decision to flare earlier than expected. The touchdown distance of 283 meters was considered good, and the touchdown speed of 115 knots was also within acceptable limits.
Despite the good touchdown speed, the touchdown rate was reported as heavy, at -624 feet per minute (fpm). This may have been due to the aircraft's descent rate or the pilot's decision to flare too aggressively. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 3.2 meters, which may have been due to the crosswind or the pilot's alignment during the approach.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 17 knots from a direction of 90°. This resulted in a crosswind of 17 knots and a headwind of 1 knot. The total landing distance was 1,045 meters, which is 58% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned from the centerline by 8.2 meters, which may have been due to the crosswind or the pilot's alignment during the rollout.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, but there were some minor issues with the touchdown rate and alignment. The pilots may have been able to improve their performance by adjusting their descent rate and flare technique to achieve a smoother touchdown and better alignment with the runway centerline.
