Level the wings with coordinated aileron on short final so bank stays near wings-level through touchdown.

What happened: Wings were not level through the landing phase, with bank angle at 2.2° on short final.

Watch for: Watch the bank angle indicator, holding it near wings-level through the landing and touchdown.

Twenty knots on a monitor produces the visual sensation of about ten. The advice to "taxi at a walking pace" cannot fix this, because your sense of walking pace is exactly the thing that's broken. Put the groundspeed readout in your scan and obey it for the next fifty flights, the way a student pilot leans on the airspeed indicator before learning to read attitude.

Speed and pitch

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

Rotated at 130 kt, 15 kt below the 145 kt target, and lifted off at 140 kt 2.8 s later, the nose coming up at 1.3° a second. Climb 3 averaged 166 kt, 17 kt under its 183 kt target.

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 994 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 782 m of runway left; gear up at 72 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 2,110 fpm on average to 994 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 3,184 m runway.

Rolled from 761 m in, drifted right of the centreline, 5.1 m at the widest, and lifted off 5.2 m right. Airborne 62 % 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.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 4 nm to 0.3 nm, then not again: low from 0.3 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.

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

On the glideslope from 4 nm to 0.3 nm, then low to the threshold (up to 50 ft under).

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.

Plan distance off the extended centreline, your left at the top, with the 1° band. Sideways distances are drawn 16× larger than distances along the final.

Inside the 1° band all the way from 4 nm, never more than 23 m off the centreline.

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.

Speed against the approach speed. The green band runs from 5 kt slow to 33 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 20 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Inside the speed band all the way, between +5 kt and +13 kt on the approach speed of 132 kt.

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 flare95.78

Great landing flare. It lost 4.2 points, for starting the flare at 8 ft agl, below the usual 11 ft agl–45 ft agl.

The crosswind

Little crosswind (1 kt): nothing to correct for. Touched down straight, 5° of bank.

Wind 072° at 4 kt · 4 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.

Side view — the last 1,730 m of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 31 ft, 19 ft below the 50 ft target; began the flare late, at 8 ft. Touched down 422 m in, 117 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 1,730 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 350 fpm at the flare to 190 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 0.8° 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.

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

The Boeing 737 MAX 8 departed TTPP Piarco International Airport on runway 10. The take-off roll used 2,000 m, which is 63 % of the runway, and rotation occurred at 130 kt. Local weather was 30 °C with wind 8 kt from 120°, giving a 4 kt crosswind and a 7 kt headwind.

Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl lasted 26 seconds, averaging 1,724 fpm and reaching 163 kt at the top. The aircraft then climbed from 1,060 ft asl to 34,468 ft asl in 19 minutes, covering 130 nm, beginning about 1 mile east of the departure airport.

Cruise was maintained at 34,500 ft asl for 11 minutes, covering 88 nm, with the aircraft positioned 44 miles north of Mabaruma. Descent began from 34,495 ft asl to 1,341 ft asl in 18 minutes, covering 96 nm, starting 12 miles west of SYAR Anna Regina Airport.

For the final approach to runway 06 at SYCJ Cheddi Jagan International Airport, descent from 1,297 ft agl to 63 ft agl took 101 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway were all met: gear down, landing flap, sink rate, glideslope, centreline, speed, and wings level. Configuration changes were: landing gear down at 2,552 ft agl at 159 kt; final flap position 7 at 2,105 ft agl at 150 kt; autopilot disconnected at 670 ft agl at 142 kt.

Landing on runway 06 used a threshold speed of 139 kt, slightly above target. The flare was described as great but started late. Touchdown occurred 422 m down the runway at 131 kt with a rate of -193 fpm; alignment was perfect and no bounce was observed. Total landing distance was 1,650 m, 73 % of the runway, and rollout alignment was perfect. Local weather at landing was 27 °C with wind 6 kt from 077°, giving a 3 kt crosswind and a 5 kt headwind.

After landing, the aircraft taxied to parking in 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nm. The entire flight covered 324 nm in 61 minutes and consumed 2,008 kg of fuel.
