The flight began with the Airbus A330-900 taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, taking approximately 2 minutes to cover less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 26, with a takeoff distance of 4,422 feet, which accounted for 42% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 149 knots.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand pattern from runway 26, it covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in just 15 seconds. The subsequent left-hand pattern crosswind maneuver was completed in 13 seconds, with the aircraft maintaining a steady course. The pattern downwind turn was a notable segment of the flight, with the aircraft covering a distance of 4 nautical miles at an angle of 45 degrees to the runway, and an angle of 151.4 degrees to the runway.

The final approach to runway 26 was made from the east, with the aircraft heading 272.0 degrees at an altitude of 146 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway. The landing on runway 26 was successful, with a threshold height that was considered good and a threshold speed of 134 knots. However, the touchdown speed of 128 knots was a little fast, and the touchdown rate of -238 feet per minute was fair.

The touchdown point was 978 feet beyond the touchdown zone, and the total landing distance was 4,572 feet, which accounted for 43% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, and the aircraft used 71,768 pounds of fuel for the entire flight, which covered a total distance of 6 nautical miles and took approximately 5 minutes to complete.

Landing on runway 26 at KPHX Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport in the Airbus A330-900

Landing Score 96.7 %

Landing Summary

The Airbus A330-900 successfully landed at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (KPHX) with a score of 96.7%. The aircraft approached the runway from the east, heading 272.0° at an altitude of 146 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway. The final approach was executed smoothly, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 134 knots, which is within the acceptable range.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 978 feet beyond the touchdown zone, which is slightly beyond the ideal spot. However, the touchdown speed of 128 knots was a bit faster than desired, indicating that the pilots may have needed to apply more braking force to slow down the aircraft. The touchdown rate of -238 feet per minute (fpm) was fair, suggesting that the pilots managed to control the descent and touchdown.

The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilots maintained a stable and aligned approach to the runway. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 75°F, which is ideal for landing.

The total landing distance of 4,572 feet was 43% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilots maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and brought it to a stop safely.

Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft coming to a stop safely and efficiently. However, there is room for improvement in terms of touchdown speed and distance from the touchdown zone.
