Next time

Departure

Apply small rudder corrections to track the centreline against a point at the far end of the runway.

What happened: The takeoff roll drifted 7.4 m off the centreline, and a heading variation of 1.8° usually follows into the initial climb.

Watch for: Heading indicator: wings-level runway heading held through the climb

See Departure RollDeparture Climb 1

Arrival

Add power on short final to hold 43 kt at the threshold rather than letting speed decay.

What happened: You crossed the threshold at 35 kt against a target of 43 kt, below reference speed.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator, hold 43 kt down to the threshold.

See Arrival Landing

Every knot above Vref is stored kinetic energy, and energy stored at the threshold must be dissipated in ground effect before the aeroplane will stop flying. Because kinetic energy scales with the square of speed, the excess you must dissipate grows fast. At a 45-knot approach, five knots hot is over a tenth more speed and roughly a quarter more energy to get rid of in ground effect. This is why the fix is never in the flare. It was decided three miles earlier, on final, at the airspeed indicator.

Lifted off at 43 kt with 3.3° of pitch.

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.

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 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.

How to read this

The lap from above, with the landing direction to the left: the opposite of the runway drawings. The wide pale-blue line is a textbook circuit for your downwind speed - the downwind a mile out for every 100 kt, every turn at 30° of bank - and your track is drawn over it, each leg in the colour of its mark. The numbers are the four turns, the same as on the profile and the cards below. The 45° line from the threshold is the usual point to turn onto base.

How to read this

The same lap straightened out, so the height and the bank can be read together. Each shaded stretch is a turn, numbered as on the plan. The green box is circuit height, 1,000 ft, on the downwind. The amber line is 30° of bank, and a turn's steepest bank shows red above 32°. "Turn crosswind from" is the lowest height to start the first turn at.

The approach to EGHN 22

The final from 4 nm.

Profile height against the 3° glideslope, with its 2° band in green.

High from 0.8 nm, where the final began, to 0.3 nm (up to 630 ft over), then back on it to the threshold.

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.

Plan distance off the extended centreline, your left at the top, with the 1° band. Sideways distances are drawn 6× larger than distances along the final.

Inside the 1° band from 0.8 nm, where the final began, to 0.6 nm, then 50 m right of it from 0.6 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.

Speed against the approach speed. The green band runs from 5 kt slow to 22 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 13 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Fast from 0.8 nm, where the final began, to 0.4 nm (up to +14 kt), then inside the band to the threshold.

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 crosswind

Little crosswind (1 kt): nothing to correct for. Touched down with the nose 4° right of the track, wings level.

Wind 270° at 2 kt · 1 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 34 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 2 s, an average deceleration of 0.09 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 906 m of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 20 ft, 30 ft below the 50 ft target; began the flare at 13 ft. Touched down 185 m in, 120 m short of 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 906 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.

Flight narrative

The Taylorcraft BC-12D taxied to runway 22 at EGHN Isle of Wight / Sandown Airport and commenced the departure roll. The aircraft lifted off after a take-off distance of 194 m, which represented 21 % of the runway, at a liftoff speed of 43 kt. Ambient conditions were 15 °C with a wind of 2 kt from 270°, including a 1 kt cross-wind and a 1 kt head-wind component.

Entering the right-hand traffic pattern from runway 22, the aircraft covered less than 1 nm in 21 seconds during the pattern entry segment.

The right-hand cross-wind leg from runway 22 was flown over a distance of less than 1 nm in 15 seconds.

During the downwind turn, the aircraft described a 1 nm arc with an angle to the runway of 50.6°.

The downwind leg extended 2 nm and was completed in 64 seconds.

The base-leg turn was a 1 nm maneuver with an angle to the runway of 44.4°.

The base leg itself was flown for less than 1 nm in 20 seconds.

The final turn to align with the runway covered less than 1 nm in 21 seconds.

On final approach to runway 22, the aircraft descended from 702 ft AGL to 31 ft AGL in 36 seconds, meeting the stabilisation gates criteria.

Landing was achieved on runway 22, whose length is 906 m, with a threshold speed slightly below target at 35 kt. Touchdown occurred 182 m down the runway at a speed of 24 kt and a vertical speed of minus 100 fpm. The touchdown point was offset 5.2 m from the centreline, and the total landing distance measured 218 m, representing 24 % of the runway. Runway rollout alignment was reported as very good.

The rollout concluded with the aircraft remaining on the runway after a smooth deceleration, after which the flight was completed.

In total, the flight covered 5 nm, took 4 (units as given), and consumed 1 kg of fuel.
