What went well

Touched down at -180 fpm — a soft arrival
Touchdown 267 m in — inside the full-score zone
Threshold crossed at 21 ft and 129 kt — both inside band

What held you back

Arrival Approach — GPWS warning; 1,000 ft gate 100 %, 500 ft gate 86 %, −0.48 points
Arrival Landing — Flare profile at 85 %, −0.25 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown rate was -180 fpm at 95 %, −0.07 points

Next time

Arrival

Raise the nose more slowly in the flare and stop as soon as the sink is checked; if it balloons, hold the attitude.

What happened: The flare ballooned, with 347 fpm of sink returning after the arrest; a balloon like this usually carries through to a firm touchdown, as it did here at 179 fpm.

Watch for: The runway ahead: the aircraft still sinking gently towards it through the flare, never rising.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

85 % The flare mostly held the target profile. The flare took all the sink out 23 ft agl above the runway and the aircraft then dropped the rest of the way, 347 fpm of sink coming back. Touchdown was 267 m past the threshold. It was on speed over the threshold, so this was more back pressure than the speed could take: raise the nose more slowly and stop as soon as the sink is checked.

Speed and pitch

From brake release to the end of the climb, against time, then the takeoff point by point.

Rotated at 145 kt, 4 kt above the 141 kt target, and lifted off at 152 kt 1.8 s later, the nose coming up at 5.6° a second. Climb 3 averaged 193 kt, 14 kt over its 179 kt target.

How to read this

Two traces from brake release: the airspeed on top, and below it the pitch, which is how far the nose is above the horizon. The dashed green line is the speed to rotate at for this aircraft at its weight, and the green dot is where the nose started to come up. The figures at liftoff are the pitch then and how fast the nose came up, in degrees a second. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, the part of the climb scored on holding the climb speed.

Side view from the start of the roll to the end of Climb 3 at 897 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 1,433 m of runway left; gear up at 11 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 2,310 fpm on average to 897 ft.

How to read this

The takeoff from the side: the height above the runway against the distance along it. The numbers along the runway are the speeds reached at each point. Lifting off in the amber last quarter of the runway costs marks for the roll length. The gear-up ring is coloured by its mark. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, scored on its average speed against the target.

Plan view the roll down the 3,130 m runway.

Rolled from 239 m in, drifted left of the centreline, 4.4 m at the widest, and lifted off 4 m left. Airborne 45 % of the way down the runway, before the 75 % line.

How to read this

The roll from above, with your left at the top. The line is where the wheels went, and "widest" is the furthest you drifted off the centreline. Lifting off before the amber 75 % line gets full marks for the roll length. The arrow beside the runway is the crosswind, pointing the way the air was moving, so it pushed the aircraft that way.

The stabilisation gates

Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 1.5 to 0.9 nm, then not again: low from 0.5 nm to the threshold.

How to read this

Each line is one of the gate checks, run along the whole final rather than only at the gates: green where it would have passed, amber where it would not. The glideslope, centreline and speed lines use the bands in the charts beside this card. The sink rate is allowed what the glideslope needs at your ground speed plus 600 fpm, the wings 10° of bank, and the gear and flap are read from when you moved the levers. The bottom line is green where every check held at once, ignoring blips shorter than 0.2 nm, and the sentence above it says from where it held to the threshold. A ring is a stabilisation gate, where the checks in the table were taken.

Profile height against the 3° glideslope, with its 1° band in green.

On the glideslope from 4 nm to 0.5 nm, then low to the threshold (up to 70 ft under).

How to read this

Your height above the runway against the distance still to go. The glideslope is the steady descent path to the aiming point, 305 m past the threshold: 3° here, which is about 320 ft for every nautical mile out, crossing the threshold at about 50 ft. The row under the distances is the height it puts you at. Inside the green band your path is drawn green; outside it, amber. A ring is a stabilisation gate: green when every check there passed, amber with the failed checks named beside it.

How to read this

Looking down from above, flying left to right towards the runway: up the page is left of the centreline, down is right. Sideways distances are stretched so that small drifts show, so a line that looks wild here may be only a few tens of feet. The labels are how far off you were at each distance, amber when outside the band.

Your indicated airspeed down the final, against the approach speed for this aircraft at its landing weight. The band allows 5 kt slow and more on the fast side further out, closing as you get lower, because the speed is expected to come off on the way down.

The flare85.14

The flare mostly held the target profile. The flare took all the sink out 23 ft agl above the runway and the aircraft then dropped the rest of the way, 347 fpm of sink coming back. Touchdown was 267 m past the threshold. It was on speed over the threshold, so this was more back pressure than the speed could take: raise the nose more slowly and stop as soon as the sink is checked. Once it has ballooned, hold the attitude and let it settle rather than pushing.

The crosswind

No crosswind: nothing to correct for. Touched down straight, wings level.

Wind 359° at 2 kt · 1 kt tail · 0 kt across

How to read this

The wind is the one recorded at the landing, split along the runway (headwind or tailwind) and across it. To hold the centreline in a crosswind the nose points a little into wind - the crab - and is straightened with rudder just before the wheels touch, often with the into-wind wing lowered to stop the drift. These are the nose against the direction you were actually moving, and the wings, at the moment of touchdown. Shown for reading; not marked.

The stop

From 129 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 28 s, an average deceleration of 0.19 g.

How to read this

Your ground speed from the moment the wheels touched until you were down to taxi speed, against the distance rolled. A steep line is hard braking, a shallow one a long, gentle roll. For scale, an airliner's lowest autobrake setting decelerates at about 0.15 g, a medium one about 0.3 g. Shown for reading; not marked.

How to read this

The last stretch of the approach and the touchdown, from the side. The height is stretched so that the last few feet show: 80 ft top to bottom, against 1,524 m across. The dashed line is the ideal, 50 ft over the threshold and down 305 m in. The flare ring is where you began raising the nose, and "descent slowed" is where the sink came off; the figures beside them are the sink rate, pitch and speed at that point.

Lined up with the side view above, so a point on one sits under the same point of the other. On top, how fast you were coming down: 0 is level, and −600 is 600 ft a minute down. Below, the pitch.

Flight narrative

The Boeing 737-800 taxied from the parking area to runway 04 at NTAA Faa’a International Airport in 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.

Take-off was performed on runway 04. The aircraft used 1,416 m of runway, which is 45 % of the available length. Rotation occurred at 145 kt. Local weather at departure was 28 °C with a wind of 2 kt from 190°, a 2 kt crosswind and a 2 kt tailwind.

Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl took 21 seconds, averaging 2,247 fpm and reaching 203 kt at the top of the climb.

The climb continued from 940 ft asl to 39,908 ft asl in 52 minutes, covering 405 nm. The climb began overhead Faa’a and included brief level-offs at 25,700 ft asl, 28,200 ft asl, 29,200 ft asl, 30,200 ft asl, 31,200 ft asl, 32,200 ft asl, 32,900 ft asl and 33,400 ft asl.

Cruise was held at 40,000 ft asl for 221 minutes, covering 1,760 nm, beginning at latitude -10.6434513 and longitude -150.6362152.

Descent began from 39,642 ft asl to 1,067 ft asl in 16 minutes, covering 102 nm, starting 48 mi south of Hawaiian Ocean View.

Final approach to runway 17 at PHKO Ellison Onizuka Kona International Airport started from 1,464 ft agl and descended to 26 ft agl in 97 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway were met for gear down, landing flap, sink rate, glideslope, centreline and wings level; the speed check was not met at one gate. Configuration changes were: landing gear down at 2,823 ft agl at 279 kt; final flap position 3 at 8,177 ft agl at 300 kt.

Landing on runway 17 used a threshold speed of 130 kt, which was good. The flare was described as very good, with the aircraft ballooning in the flare. Touchdown occurred at 126 kt, with a touchdown rate of minus 180 fpm and a touchdown distance of 267 m, both noted as good. Alignment on touchdown and rollout was perfect, and there was no bounce. Total landing distance was 804 m, representing 24 % of the runway length of 3,367 m. Local weather at landing was 25 °C with a wind of 2 kt from 360°, a 0 kt crosswind and a 1 kt tailwind.

After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm.

The flight covered a total of 2,274 nm in 297 minutes and consumed 12,430 kg of fuel.
