Next time

Departure

Ease the yoke smoothly to hold a steady one g through the ground roll instead of letting it sag to 0.4 g.

What happened: During the ground roll the g force averaged 0.4 g, well below the smooth steady load expected while tracking the runway.

Watch for: Watch the g meter and hold it steady near one g through the roll.

See Departure Roll

Arrival

Apply small rudder corrections at touchdown, aiming at a point at the far end of the runway, to stay on the centreline.

What happened: Touchdown drifted 7.6 m off the centreline, and landings like this usually carry that drift into the rollout, where the alignment error grew to 13 m.

Watch for: Runway centreline: aircraft tracking directly over it through touchdown and rollout.

See Arrival TouchdownArrival Rollout

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.

Plan view the roll down the 1,658 m runway.

Rolled from 110 m in, drifted left of the centreline, 3.5 m at the widest, and lifted off 3.3 m left. Airborne 20 % 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.

Reached 35 ft with 1,074 m of runway left; gear up at 97 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 820 fpm on average to 569 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.

Speed and pitch from brake release to the end of the climb, against time.

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 figure at liftoff is the pitch then. The grey dashed line across the pitch is the attitude held from 35 ft to the end: a nose held steady is a climb speed that holds, and the airspeed trace sits directly above it to compare. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, the part of the climb scored on holding the climb speed.

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 1,000 ft gate: no landing flap set and speed more than 35 kt above the approach speed of 70 kt.

Sideslipping at the lower gate - wing down, opposite rudder. That is a technique for losing height without gaining speed, so the sink rate, the glideslope and wings level are not asked there: they are what the slip is for. The other checks are marked as usual.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 3.0 to 0.6 nm, then not again: slow 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 2° band in green.

Inside the glideslope band from 3.9 nm, where the final began, to the threshold, never more than 370 ft above 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.

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 35 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 21 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Fast from 3.9 nm, where the final began, to 3.0 nm (up to +40 kt), then inside the band to 0.3 nm, then slow to the threshold (up to −12 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 flare held the target profile well

The flare began at 8 ft agl above the runway, lower than this aircraft wants. Touchdown was 440 m past the threshold. Begin raising the nose earlier - a late flare leaves no time to arrest the sink.

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

Crossed the threshold at 31 ft, 19 ft below the 50 ft target; began the flare late, at 8 ft; ballooned 2 ft from 6 ft. Touched down 440 m in, 136 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 240 fpm at the flare to 130 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 3.3° on the way down. Into the flare at 56 kt, 14 kt under the 70 kt approach speed, and 44 kt at touchdown.

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.

Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,935 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.

Touched down 7.6 m left of the centreline and drifted to 13 m left on the rollout, back to 5.1 m left by the end. Calm: nothing to correct for. Touched down with the nose 2° left of the track, wings level.

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 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. The sentence gives the nose against the direction you were actually moving as the wheels touched, and the steepest bank as they touched, the figure the touchdown's Bank tile marks. The rest of it is shown for reading, not marked.

The stop — touchdown to taxi speed.

From 55 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 22 s, an average deceleration of 0.06 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.

Flight narrative

The pilot taxied from the parking area to runway 19 at MDJB La Isabela International Airport; the taxi took 5 minutes and covered less than 1 nm.

Takeoff was on runway 19. The takeoff roll was 349 m, which was 21 % of the runway. Liftoff occurred at 67 kt. Local weather was temperature 31 °C, wind 11 kt from 176°, giving a 2 kt cross-wind and an 11 kt head-wind.

Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl lasted 39 seconds, averaging 744 fpm and reaching 87 kt at the top of the climb. The climb continued from 630 ft asl to 3,556 ft asl in 4 minutes while covering 6 nm, remaining overhead MDJB La Isabela International Airport.

Cruise was level at 3,700 ft asl for 3 minutes, covering 7 nm, beginning 2 miles north of Ensanche Luperon. Descent from 3,243 ft asl to 2,534 ft asl took 2 minutes over 3 nm, starting 1 mile north of MDSI San Isidro Air Base. Level flight at 2,500 ft asl continued for 14 minutes, covering 30 nm, beginning 3 miles north-east of MDSI San Isidro Air Base.

A further descent from 2,325 ft asl to 1,625 ft asl lasted 5 minutes over 11 nm, beginning 1 mile north of MDSP Cueva Las Maravillas Airport, with a brief level-off at 1,700 ft asl.

Final approach to runway 11 at MDLR Casa De Campo International Airport began at 1,387 ft agl and descended to 42 ft agl in 161 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway were met for gear down, sink rate, glideslope, centreline, and wings level; they were not met for landing flap (at one gate) and speed (at one gate). The landing gear was down at 1,361 ft agl at 116 kt; the final flap position 9 was set at 1,125 ft agl at 104 kt.

Touchdown occurred on runway 11, whose length is 2,935 m. The threshold height was good and the threshold speed was a little below target at 58 kt. The flare was described as great, though it started late. Touchdown distance was 440 m, touchdown speed was 44 kt, and touchdown rate was smooth at minus 132 fpm. The touchdown point was slightly misaligned by 7.6 m from the centreline. No bounce occurred. Total landing distance was 886 m, representing 30 % of the runway, and the rollout was slightly misaligned by 13.3 m from the centreline.

After landing, the pilot taxied to the parking area; this taxi took 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nm.

The flight covered 64 nm in 39 minutes and used 22 kg of fuel.
