Speed and pitch

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

Lifted off at 81 kt with 6.7° 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.

Side view from the start of the roll to the end of Climb 3 at 977 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 2,455 m of runway left; then climbing at 830 fpm on average to 977 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.

Plan view the roll down the 3,123 m runway.

Rolled from 49 m in, drifted 5.5 m left of the centreline and was back on it to lift off. Airborne 15 % 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 approach to LPFR 10

The final from 4 nm.

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 50 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.

Plan distance off the extended centreline, your left at the top, with the 1° band. Sideways distances are drawn 12× larger than distances along the final.

Inside the 1° band all the way from 4 nm, never more than 31 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.

The crosswind

11 kt across from the left, which takes about 11° of crab to hold the centreline at 59 kt. Touched down with the nose 6° right of the track, away from the wind, wings level.

Wind 016° at 14 kt · 1 kt head · 11 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 61 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 56 s, an average deceleration of 0.03 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 1,539 m of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 46 ft, close to the 50 ft target. Touched down 316 m in, close to 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 1,539 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 360 fpm at 47 ft to 250 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 4.0° 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. 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 flight in the Douglas DC-3 began with a 24-minute taxi from the parking area to the runway at LPPT Humberto Delgado Airport in Lisbon. The departure roll on runway 02 covered 447 meters, which was 14% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 81 knots. The local weather at the time of departure was 13 °C with a wind speed of 19 knots at 10 °, resulting in a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 19 knots.

The enroute climb began overhead Camarate and involved climbing from 1,353 feet above sea level to 3,551 feet, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles in 2 minutes. The enroute level cruise commenced 3 miles northeast of Camarate and lasted for 48 minutes, covering a distance of 116 nautical miles. The descent phase started 3 miles southeast of Albufeira, descending from 3,015 feet to 1,307 feet in 5 minutes while covering 6 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 10 at LPFR Faro Airport was conducted from the west, with the aircraft heading at 100.0 ° at 4 nautical miles and 1,279 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 10 at Faro Airport, which has a runway length of 2,404 meters, had a good threshold height. The touchdown speed was slightly below target at 66 knots, with a touchdown distance of 313 meters. The touchdown rate was fair at -250 feet per minute, and the alignment with the runway was perfect. The weather at Faro Airport indicated a temperature of 13 °C with a wind speed of 14 knots at 16 °, resulting in a crosswind of 14 knots and a headwind of 2 knots. The total landing distance was 1,434 meters, which was 60% of the runway length, with a slight misalignment of 18.5 meters from the centerline during the runway rollout.

After landing, the taxiing from the runway to the parking area took 4 minutes to cover less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance covered was 137 nautical miles, with a total flight time of 69 minutes. The flight consumed 250 kg of fuel during the journey.
