What went well

Held the centreline on the roll in a 11 kn crosswind — 1.74 m off at liftoff
Touchdown 362 m in — inside the full-score zone
Threshold crossed at 27 ft and 137 kt — both inside band

What held you back

Firm touchdown — 534 fpm, −1.06 points across the landing and the touchdown
  • Arrival Touchdown · sink rate 534 fpm−0.93
  • Arrival Landing · flare: the descent was not taken out−0.10
  • Arrival Touchdown · 1.42 G at contact−0.03

Next time

Arrival

Keep the back pressure coming once the flare is established, holding the nose up through to touchdown instead of easing it.

What happened: The flare arrested the sink but 422 fpm of it came back before touchdown, and in flights like this one that returning sink usually carries through to a firm or hard touchdown at 533 fpm.

Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: the sink held near zero all the way through touchdown, not allowed to build back up.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

There are several things that can go wrong during the flare, carrying too much speed over the threshold, starting the flare at the wrong height and inconsistent flight control inputs, all contribute to a poor flare resulting in a hard touchdown or a float down the runway.

Speed and pitch

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

Rotated at 142 kt, 4 kt above the 138 kt target, and lifted off at 146 kt 1.4 s later, the nose coming up at 3.9° a second. Climb 3 held close to its 154 kt target, at 153 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 926 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 1,634 m of runway left; gear up at 116 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 2,500 fpm on average to 926 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 2,698 m runway.

Rolled from the start of the runway, drifted left of the centreline, 2.8 m at the widest, and lifted off 1.7 m left, in 11 kn of crosswind from the right. Airborne 29 % 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.

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 KLGA 04

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 60 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.

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 +2 kt and +8 kt on the approach speed of 133 kt.

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 flare91.14

The flare held the target profile well. The flare arrested the sink and then let it come back - 422 fpm of it - so the aircraft dropped the last few feet. Touchdown was 362 m past the threshold. Keep the back pressure coming once the flare is established.

The crosswind

Little crosswind (2 kt): nothing to correct for. Touched down straight, wings level.

Wind 020° at 12 kt · 11 kt head · 2 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 121 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 33 s, an average deceleration of 0.15 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 27 ft, 23 ft below the 50 ft target; began the flare at 18 ft. Touched down 362 m in, 57 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 430 fpm at the flare to 60 fpm at 12 ft, then back up to 530 fpm at touchdown. The pitch barely changed.

How to read this

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 Airbus A220-300 departed Logan International Airport (KBOS) on runway 04R. The take-off roll was 781 m, using 29 % of the runway, and rotation occurred at 142 kt. Local weather at departure was 12 °C with a wind of 12 kt from 120°, a 12 kt crosswind and a 2 kt tailwind.

Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl took 20 seconds, averaging 2,244 fpm and reaching 152 kt at the top. The climb continued from 1,016 ft asl to 15,727 ft asl in 6 minutes, covering 29 nm and passing overhead Winthrop. Level cruise was held at 16,000 ft asl for 21 minutes, covering 119 nm, beginning about 1 mile south-east of Weymouth.

Descent began from 16,000 ft asl to 3,992 ft asl in 9 minutes, covering 45 nm, starting 2 miles north of Sherman. A further level segment at 4,000 ft asl lasted 5 minutes over 23 nm, beginning overhead Glenville. The next descent from 3,994 ft asl to 1,391 ft asl took 8 minutes, covering 24 nm, starting overhead Weehawken, with a brief level-off at 3,000 ft asl.

Final approach to runway 04 at LaGuardia Airport (KLGA) began at 1,414 ft agl and descended to 60 ft agl in 112 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway were met for gear down, landing flap, sink rate, glideslope, centreline, speed and wings level. The aircraft was in final flap position 2 at 2,909 ft agl with a speed of 209 kt.

Landing on runway 04 was on a good threshold. Threshold speed was 137 kt. The flare was described as excellent. Touchdown occurred 362 m down the runway at 133 kt, noted as a little fast, with a very hard touchdown rate of minus 534 fpm. Runway-touchdown alignment was very good and there was no bounce. Total landing distance was 1,278 m, 60 % of the runway, and rollout alignment was perfect.

Local weather at LaGuardia was 14 °C with a wind of 14 kt from 020°, a 3 kt crosswind and a 14 kt headwind. After landing, taxiing to the parking area took 7 minutes and covered less than 1 nm.

The flight covered 251 nm in 64 minutes and used 293 kg of fuel.
