Top opportunity

Shorten the long landing

Arrival Touchdown

Ground effect becomes significant below about one wingspan of height. A Cessna 172, with a 36 ft span, enters ground effect at flare height - the float it feels in the hold-off is ground effect arriving on cue. An A320, with a span around 117 ft, has been in ground effect since before the threshold and there is no sudden cushion to feel, only a gradual reduction in induced drag that lengthens any float you allow.

Landing Summary

The aircraft touched down on runway 34 at NZWN Wellington International Airport with a good threshold height, but slightly above the target threshold speed of 133 kt at 134 kt. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a heading of 3.0° at 4 nm and 1,362 ft above ground level. The touchdown distance of 366 m was within acceptable limits, indicating a well-executed flare. However, the touchdown speed of 126 kt was a little fast, and the touchdown rate of -443 fpm was hard, suggesting a slightly aggressive touchdown.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.1 m from the centreline, which may have been due to the crosswind component of 5 kt. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 13 °C and a headwind of 17 kt, may have also contributed to the slight deviation from the centreline. The total landing distance of 924 m, which accounted for 51% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits.

The rollout phase was executed well, with the aircraft maintaining a very good alignment with the centreline. Overall, the landing was satisfactory, with a score of 94.8%. While there were some minor deviations from the ideal touchdown characteristics, the pilot's skills and the aircraft's performance were sufficient to ensure a safe and controlled landing.
