What went well

Lifted off at 155 kt — on the 161 kt target
Airborne in 1,561 m — 39 % of the runway
Held the centreline on the roll — 4.97 m off at liftoff

What held you back

Arrival Taxi — landing lights, then taxi lights; peak taxi speed 58 kt at 0 %, peak speed in a turn 37 kt at 0 %, −5.00 points
Arrival Landing — Threshold height at 102 ft agl was excessively over target at 0 %, Flare profile at 0 %, −3.07 points
Arrival Rollout — bounce at touchdown; Runway alignment max 9.62 m left at 76 %, Landing distance 1,441 m at 86 %, −1.62 points

Next time

Departure

Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.

What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 5 m off the runway centreline.

Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.

See Departure Roll

Arrival

Reduce power earlier on final so speed bleeds back to 153 kt by the threshold, rather than carrying it in.

What happened: This flight crossed the threshold 18 kt above the target speed, then began the flare 25 ft above the normal band. Carrying speed like this across the threshold usually keeps the flare high and ends in a firm touchdown.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 153 kt at the threshold.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 07C at Frankfurt Airport, EDDF. The Boeing 747-8 took off with a takeoff distance of 1,079 meters, which was 27% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 156 knots. At the time of departure, the local weather conditions were a temperature of 14°C, with a wind speed of 6 knots at 20°, resulting in a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 4 knots.

As the aircraft climbed out of Frankfurt Airport, it began its enroute climb, reaching an altitude of 11,935 feet above sea level in just 6 minutes, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles. The climb started over Frankfurt Airport and ended over Niederrad, a nearby town in Hessen, Germany. The aircraft then entered a level cruise, lasting for 66 minutes and covering a distance of 54 nautical miles.

The enroute descent started over Ramberg, a town in Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 16 nautical miles. The aircraft descended from 12,047 feet to 2,911 feet above sea level, a decrease of 9,137 feet. The descent was followed by another climb, which started over Hohfroschen, a town in Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany, and ended over Dellfeld, another town in the same region. The climb was short-lived, lasting only 2 minutes, and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles.

The aircraft then entered another level cruise, lasting for 10 minutes and covering a distance of 25 nautical miles. However, this was followed by another descent, which started over Rosbruck, a town in Grand Est, France, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 10 nautical miles. The aircraft descended from 5,054 feet to 1,907 feet above sea level, a decrease of 3,147 feet.

The final approach to runway 09 at Saarbrücken Airport, EDDR, was made from the west, heading 96.0° at 2 nautical miles and 787 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 09, which had a length of 1,835 meters. The threshold height was excessively over target, and the threshold speed was slightly above target.

The touchdown point was 64 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 167 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown rate was very heavy at -941 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 13.6 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 12°C, with a wind speed of 5 knots at 50°, resulting in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 4 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,441 meters, which was 79% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 9.6 meters from the centerline. The taxiing to the parking from the runway took 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 115 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 46 minutes, with no fuel consumption reported.

Landing Summary

The Boeing 747-8 aircraft successfully landed at EDDR Saarbrücken Airport, but the landing was not without its issues. The final approach to runway 09 from the west was initiated at an altitude of 787 feet above ground level (agl) and a distance of 2 nautical miles from the runway. The aircraft was heading 96.0 degrees at the time of the approach.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 64 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a significant deviation from the target. The touchdown speed of 167 knots was slightly above the target speed, indicating that the pilot may have been unable to fully arrest the aircraft's descent before touching down. The touchdown rate of -941 feet per minute (fpm) was also excessively high, suggesting a heavy landing.

The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 13.6 meters from the centerline, which could have contributed to the aircraft's deviation from the touchdown zone. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 12 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 5 knots from a direction of 50 degrees. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the headwind component was 4 knots.

The total landing distance of 1,441 meters was 79% of the available runway length, which is a relatively high percentage. This suggests that the aircraft may have been unable to fully utilize the available runway length, potentially due to the heavy touchdown rate and misaligned touchdown position. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 9.6 meters from the centerline, which could have contributed to the overall performance of the landing.

Overall, while the Boeing 747-8 aircraft successfully landed at EDDR Saarbrücken Airport, the landing was not without its issues. The pilot may have been able to improve the performance of the landing by adjusting their approach and touchdown technique to better utilize the available runway length and reduce the touchdown rate.
