Narrative

ON ILS APCH TO RWY 34L RJAA IN VMC; CAPT EXECUTED MISSED APCH AT APPROX 500 AFE; AFTER CREW NOTICED ACFT WAS UNSTABILIZED FOLLOWING THE '500 FT' CALLOUT BY FO. SUBSEQUENT STABILIZED APCH WAS MADE TO RWY 16R. PRIOR TO EVENT; ALL SEEMED NORMAL. IT WAS A NICE CLR DAY IN RJAA. THE CAPT HAD CALLED FOR GEAR DOWN PRIOR TO THE SHORELINE (14 MI OUT) AS REQUIRED BY LCL RJAA PROCS. LAST ASSIGNED AIRSPD WAS 170 KTS; REQUIRING FLAPS 5 DEGS. FLAPS 5 DEGS WAS SELECTED. FINAL DSCNT CHKLIST WAS COMPLETED. AT THIS TIME THE CALL WAS '30 DEGS PLANNED; 5 DEGS INDICATED' IN REF TO FLAPS. ALL OTHER ITEMS WERE COMPLETE. CAPT FOLLOWED ELECTRONIC GS AFTER BEING CLRED FOR APCH. ONCE SWITCHED TO TWR APPROX 10 MI FROM FIELD; TWR INDICATED WIND WAS 140 DEGS AT 13 KTS. THIS INITIATED DISCUSSION AMONGST CREW AS TO TAILWIND COMPONENT. SUBSEQUENTLY; WE HEARD ON THE RADIO; FOLLOWING ACFT WERE BEING SWITCHED TO THE S (RWY 16L/R) DUE TO THE WIND CONDITIONS. WE CONTINUED APCH GEAR DOWN. WE WERE FOLLOWING A B747 ON APCH AND HAD IT IN SIGHT VISUALLY. DUE TO GOOD VISIBILITY; MUCH CREW ATTN WAS FOCUSED OUTSIDE THE ACFT. AT 1000 FT; FO MADE '1000 FT CALL.' AT THIS POINT; WE WERE NOT CLRED TO LAND AS THE B747 WAS STILL ON THE RWY. THE WIND WAS RPTED AS 140 DEGS AT 10 KTS. ANOTHER DISCUSSION ENSUED THAT THE WIND COMPONENT WAS ADEQUATE; AND NOW THE DISCUSSION WAS AS TO WHETHER THE B747 WOULD CLR THE RWY IN TIME. AT THIS TIME; NO ONE NOTICED THAT WE WERE STILL 170 KTS; FLAPS 5 DEGS. THE B747 THEN CLRED THE RWY CAUSING THE TWR TO CLR US TO LAND WHEN WE WERE APPROX 600-700 AFE. AT APPROX 500 FT AFE; FO MADE '500 FT CALL.' AT THAT TIME; CREW NOTICED WE WERE STILL 170 KTS; FLAPS 5 DEGS. DECISION WAS MADE TO MISS THE APCH. CONTRIBUTING FACTORS IN NOT BEING CONFIGURED WERE: 1) GEAR DOWN 14 MI FROM THE FIELD (NOT NORMAL PROFILE). 2) VISUAL CONDITIONS DIVERTING ATTN OUTSIDE ACFT. 3) DISCUSSION OF TAILWIND COMPONENT. 4) DISCUSSION OF PRECEDING ACFT CLRING RWY AND OTHER ACFT SWITCHING RWYS. 5) FLYING FO HAVING FIRST FLYING TRIP IN MORE THAN 1 MONTH DUE TO BEING ON RESERVE. FLOWN LESS THAN 60 HRS IN LAST 90 DAYS.
