What went well

Held the centreline on the roll in a 11 kn crosswind — 5.11 m off at liftoff
Touched down at -200 fpm — a soft arrival
Touchdown 412 m in — inside the full-score zone

What held you back

Arrival Approach — 1,000 ft gate 100 %, 500 ft gate 86 %, −0.48 points
Arrival Taxi — peak speed in a turn 22 kt at 94 %, −0.15 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown rate was -200 fpm at 91 %, −0.12 points

Next time

Arrival

Add power earlier on final to hold VREF of 137 kt by the gates rather than let speed decay.

What happened: The approach was flown too slow through the stabilisation gates, crossing the threshold at 137 kt against a VREF of 137 kt.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator against 137 kt from the first stabilisation gate onward.

See Arrival Approach

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.

Speed and pitch

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

Rotated at 146 kt, on the 145 kt target, and lifted off at 153 kt 3.1 s later, the nose coming up at 3.6° a second. Climb 3 held close to its 166 kt target, at 165 kt on average.

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 793 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 360 m of runway left; gear up at 44 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 1,930 fpm on average to 793 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 2,158 m runway.

Rolled from the start of the runway, drifted right of the centreline, 5 m at the widest, and lifted off 5 m right, in 11 kn of crosswind from the right. Airborne 66 % 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.

At the 500 ft gate: speed more than 5 kt below the approach speed of 137 kt.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 1.1 to 0.8 nm, then not again: right of the centreline from 0.8 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.

The approach to KATL 26R

The final from 4 nm, with the stabilisation gates on it.

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

Inside the glideslope band from 4 nm to the threshold, never more than 250 ft below the slope.

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.

Inside the 1° band from 4 nm to 0.8 nm, then 26 m right of it from 0.8 nm to the threshold.

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.

How to read this

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 figures are knots above (+) or below (−) the approach speed.

The flare100.00

The flare tracked the target profile exactly. The aircraft was flown onto the runway - pitch changed 1.2° and the descent was barely arrested. Touchdown was 412 m past the threshold. Start the flare with progressive back pressure rather than one pull, and keep it coming.

The crosswind

Little crosswind (1 kt): nothing to correct for. Touched down straight, wings level.

Wind 259° at 10 kt · 10 kt head · 1 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 127 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 27 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.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 44 ft, close to the 50 ft target; began the flare at 19 ft. Touched down 412 m in, 107 m past the ideal 305 m.

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.

Sink and pitch — through the flare, lined up with the side view.

The sink went from 510 fpm at the flare to 200 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 1.1° on the way down.

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. In a flare the nose comes up and the descent slows towards 0. The figure at the touchdown line is your touchdown rate.

How to read this

The runway from above, with your left at the top. Touching down inside the green bracket scores full marks for the distance. The shaded part is the rollout, up to where it ended. The arrow beside the runway is the crosswind, pointing the way the air was moving, so it pushed the aircraft that way.

Flight narrative

Departing from Lehigh Valley International Airport (KABE), the CRJ900 began its journey on runway 24, accelerating down the 1,430-meter takeoff distance, which covered 66% of the available runway. At a liftoff speed of 153 kt, the aircraft lifted off into the local weather conditions, with a temperature of 18 °C and a wind of 17 kt at 280°. The crosswind component was 13 kt, while the headwind component was 11 kt.

As the aircraft climbed to its enroute cruise altitude, it passed overhead Fullerton, Pennsylvania, and continued to ascend to 35,932 ft asl, an increase of 34,687 ft in just 10 minutes, covering 123 nm. The enroute level cruise phase began 3 miles east of Poolesville, Maryland, and lasted for 16 minutes, during which the aircraft covered 361 nm. The descent phase started 3 miles west of Oolenoy Valley Airport (SC75) in Pickens, South Carolina, and took 15 minutes to descend from 36,000 ft asl to 2,382 ft asl, covering 118 nm. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 26R at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (KATL), aligning itself with the runway from the east at a heading of 269.0°, 4 nm from the threshold and 1,322 ft agl.

The CRJ900 landed on runway 26R, which was 2,738 meters long, with a threshold speed of 138 kt and a touchdown speed of 134 kt, slightly above the recommended value. The touchdown distance was 411 meters, and the touchdown rate was -279 fpm. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.0 meters from the centerline. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, covering 1 nm in 3 minutes. The total flight distance was 611 nm, and the aircraft used 2,956 kg of fuel during the 51-minute flight.
