Next time

Work on the flare

See Arrival Landing

You crossed the threshold slow. Without the speed there is little energy left to round out with, so the flare comes up short and the touchdown tends to be firm - and that feels exactly like flaring too late. Resist the fix that feels natural, flaring earlier: it bleeds off more speed and makes the next landing firmer still. Fly the approach speed all the way to the threshold, and the flare has something to work with.

Speed and pitch

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

Lifted off at 215 kt with 5.0° 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. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, the part of the climb scored on holding the climb speed.

Reached 35 ft with 1,010 m of runway left; then climbing at 4,890 fpm on average to 855 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 shaded stretch is Climb 3, scored on its average speed against the target.

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 approach to TFFF 10

The final from 4 nm.

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

High from 1.0 nm, where the final began, to 0.6 nm (up to 210 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 3× larger than distances along the final.

Joined 305 m right of the centreline at 1.0 nm, then inside the band 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.

The crosswind

No crosswind: nothing to correct for. Touched down straight, wings level.

Wind 273° at 2 kt · 2 kt tail · 0 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 141 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 13 s, an average deceleration of 0.45 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 37 ft, 13 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 96 m in, 209 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 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 1,810 fpm at 35 ft to 1,510 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 6.3° on the way down.

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.

Flight narrative

The flight began with the departure roll from runway 28 at TLPL Hewanorra International Airport in Saint Lucia. The A10C Thunderbolt II aircraft accelerated down the runway, covering a distance of 760 meters, which was 29% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 216 knots, and the aircraft lifted off into the local weather conditions, which included a temperature of 18 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 270 degrees.

As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead the airport. The aircraft climbed from an altitude of 1,034 feet above sea level to 1,727 feet above sea level, an increase of 693 feet in just 2 minutes, while covering a distance of 8 nautical miles. This initial climb phase was followed by a brief period of level flight before the aircraft began its first descent, which started 3 miles east of Soufriere. The descent from 1,636 feet above sea level to 291 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,345 feet in 2 minutes, covered a distance of 10 nautical miles.

The aircraft then began another enroute climb, this time starting 1 mile east of TLPC George F. L. Charles Airport in Castries. The climb from 280 feet above sea level to 4,613 feet above sea level, an increase of 4,333 feet in 2 minutes, covered a distance of 7 nautical miles. Following this climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 40 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. This was followed by another enroute climb, which started 4 miles north of Gros Islet and took the aircraft from 4,613 feet above sea level to 9,171 feet above sea level, an increase of 4,558 feet in 4 minutes, while covering a distance of 12 nautical miles.

The aircraft then began its final descent, which started 8 miles southwest of Sainte-Luce in Martinique. The descent from 9,271 feet above sea level to 144 feet above sea level, a decrease of 9,126 feet in 4 minutes, covered a distance of 15 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 10 at TFFF Martinique Aimé Césaire International Airport, flying from the west at a heading of 81.0 degrees and an altitude of 135 feet above ground level.

The aircraft landed on runway 10, which had a length of 2,747 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly below the target speed at 139 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 95 meters, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 136 knots. The touchdown rate was very heavy at -1,507 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.7 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing included a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 272 degrees.

The total landing distance was 486 meters, which was 18% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating a smooth and controlled landing. The total flight distance was 52 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 12 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 1,580 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
