Top opportunity

Monitor your speed

Enroute Climb

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.

Flight narrative

The flight on the Boeing 747-8 began with a smooth taxi from the parking area to the runway at YPAD Adelaide International Airport. The short taxiing time of 4 minutes covered less than 1nm before the plane was ready for departure.

As the aircraft took off from runway 23, the departure roll was quick, covering 2,999 ft which was 31% of the runway length. The liftoff speed of 151 knots and the calm local weather conditions with a temperature of 58 °F, wind speed at 0 knots, and no crosswind or headwind made for a steady ascent into the sky over the State of South Australia, Australia.

The enroute climb began as the plane flew overhead Glenelg North, quickly ascending from 1,056 ft above sea level to 37,985 ft, covering a distance of 91nm in just 15 minutes. Once the aircraft reached its cruising altitude, the level cruise lasted for 130 minutes, covering 920 nm while flying east of YWGI Port Lincoln Airport in South Australia.

The descent portion of the flight started near YWAI Kulin Bush Races Strip in Wagin, Western Australia, descending from 37,984 ft to 2,566 ft, covering a distance of 125nm in 21 minutes. The aircraft smoothly made its approach towards YPPH Perth International Airport, preparing to land on runway 21. The landing was executed perfectly, with the touchdown occurring 1,606 ft from the threshold at a speed of 135 kn and a VSI of -287 ft/m. The local weather at Perth showed a temperature of 62 °F, with a light wind of 3 knots at 169 °, resulting in a small crosswind of 1 knot and a helpful headwind of 3 knots.

The total landing distance of 4,008 ft was 35% of the runway's length, showcasing a smooth touchdown and deceleration as the plane taxied back to the parking area in just 3 minutes. The total flight distance covered was 1,153 nm over the course of 178 minutes, consuming 55,585 lbs of fuel during the journey.
