Next time

Departure

Reduce climb power to bring speed back to 170 kt and hold it there.

What happened: Climb speed was 75 kt fast at 245 kt during the climb.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 170 kt in the climb

See Departure Climb 3

Arrival

Begin the flare with progressive back pressure and keep it coming until the sink is arrested, rather than flying it on flat.

What happened: The nose was barely raised in the flare and little of the sink was taken out, flying the aircraft onto the runway. This pattern usually carries through to a firm touchdown with a noticeable sink rate.

Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: a smoothly reducing sink through the normal flare band, not a steady rate into the runway.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

Speed at this height is usually bought with gradient. It's rarely dangerous and it's often just an early acceleration, but with flaps still out you may be heading towards the flap limit and a flat fast climb puts you at the acceleration altitude with the cleaning-up still to do.

The flight is kept as it was recorded: it ends when the engine is shut down, so a landing with the rotors turning is a stop along the way, not a new flight.

Speed and pitch

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

Rotated at 138 kt, 16 kt below the 154 kt target, and lifted off at 155 kt 4.0 s later, the nose coming up at 2.0° a second. Climb 3 averaged 245 kt, 75 kt over its 170 kt target.

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 870 ft. The distance scale changes past the runway end.

Reached 35 ft with 477 m of runway left; gear up at 131 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 1,250 fpm on average to 870 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.

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.

Every check met from 4 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.

The approach to OMAA 13R

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 30 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 37 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 22 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Inside the speed band all the way, between +7 kt and +12 kt on the approach speed of 147 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 flare55.19

The flare strayed well off the target profile. The aircraft was flown onto the runway - pitch changed 0.5° and the descent was barely arrested. Touchdown was 272 m past the threshold. Start the flare with progressive back pressure rather than one pull, and keep it coming.

The crosswind

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

Wind 270° at 1 kt · 1 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 155 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 21 s, an average deceleration of 0.31 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 43 ft, close to the 50 ft target; began the flare at 12 ft. Touched down 272 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 1,524 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 stayed between 600 fpm and 700 fpm from the flare to the runway. 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.

Flight narrative

The Airbus A320neo departed from runway 02 at LEBL Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport. The take-off roll was 1,512 m, 59 % of the runway, and rotation occurred at 138 kt. Local weather was 18 °C with wind 1 kt from 269°, a 1 kt crosswind and no headwind.

Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl took 39 seconds at an average rate of 1,179 fpm, reaching 250 kt at the top of the climb. The aircraft then climbed from 963 ft asl to 25,707 ft asl in 10 minutes, covering 53 nm and passing overhead El Prat de Llobregat.

Cruise was maintained at 26,000 ft asl for 401 minutes, covering 2,860 nm, beginning about 20 nm south-east of Tossa de Mar. Descent began from 26,001 ft asl to 810 ft asl in 11 minutes over 66 nm, starting 30 nm east of OMAZ Zirku Airport, Zirku Island.

A series of three short climbs, descents and level legs between 800 ft asl and 4,000 ft asl lasted 5 minutes and covered 18 nm, from 3 nm south of OMAA Zayed International Airport to 10 nm south-east of the same airport. A further descent from 3,981 ft asl to 1,417 ft asl took 5 minutes over 19 nm, starting 3 nm south-east of OMAA.

Final approach to runway 13R at OMAA began with a descent from 1,371 ft agl to 79 ft agl in 92 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway were all met: gear down, landing flap, sink rate, glideslope, centreline, speed and wings level. The landing gear was lowered at 9,798 ft agl while the aircraft was at 368 kt. The final flap position 1 was selected at 739 ft agl at 265 kt.

Landing on runway 13R, which is 4,100 m long, had a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 154 kt. The flare was described as fair, with little round-out. Touchdown occurred 272 m from the threshold at 153 kt, a little fast, with a very hard rate of -597 fpm. The touchdown point was misaligned by 11.5 m from the centreline, but there was no bounce. Total landing distance was 945 m, 23 % of the runway, and rollout alignment was very good.

Taxi from the runway to parking took 4 minutes and covered less than 1 nm. The total flight distance was 3,024 nm, the elapsed time 439 minutes, and fuel used 9,343 kg. Local weather at landing was 18 °C with wind 1 kt from 270°, a 1 kt crosswind and a 1 kt tailwind.
