What went well

Touchdown 455 m in — inside the full-score zone
Threshold crossed at 43 ft and 130 kt — both inside band
Straight touchdown — 2.56 m off the centreline, no bounce

What held you back

Departure Climb 3 — climb speed 207 kt against 174 kt at 84 %, −0.44 points
Arrival Taxi — Landing Lights at 1 %, −0.33 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown rate was -269 fpm at 78 %, −0.29 points

Next time

Departure

Reduce climb power to bring speed back to 174 kt and hold it there.

What happened: Climb speed was 33 kt fast at 207 kt during the climb.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 174 kt in the climb

See Departure Climb 3

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 335 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 269 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

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.

Speed and pitch

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

Rotated at 156 kt, 13 kt above the 143 kt target, and lifted off at 162 kt 1.1 s later, the nose coming up at 3.3° a second. Climb 3 averaged 207 kt, 33 kt over its 174 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 845 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 1,500 m of runway left; gear up at 522 ft, inside the 779 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 2,340 fpm on average to 845 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 2,912 m runway.

Rolled from 89 m in, drifted left of the centreline, 1.9 m at the widest, and lifted off 1.9 m left. Airborne 36 % 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 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.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 4 nm to 0.6 nm, then not again: right of the centreline from 0.6 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 LZKZ 01

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 360 ft below 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.

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 from 4 nm to 0.6 nm, then 31 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 32 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 19 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Inside the speed band all the way, between +2 kt and +15 kt on the approach speed of 129 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.

Wind 009° at 23 kt · 23 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 97 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 24 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 43 ft, close to the 50 ft target; began the flare at 24 ft. Touched down 455 m in, 151 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 650 fpm at the flare to 270 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 1.6° on the way down.

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 A321neo taxied from the parking area to runway 04 at LZIB M. R. Štefánik Airport in 7 minutes, covering 2 nm.

Take-off was performed on runway 04. The aircraft used 1,064 m of runway, which is 37 % of the available length. Rotation occurred at 156 kt. Local weather at departure was 12 °C with wind 3 kt from 360°, giving a 2 kt headwind and a 2 kt crosswind.

Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl lasted 19 seconds, averaging 2,137 fpm and reaching 212 kt at the top of the climb. The climb continued from 1,412 ft asl to 24,997 ft asl in 7 minutes, covering 29 nm while the aircraft was overhead LZIB M.

Cruise was level at 25,000 ft asl for 10 minutes, covering 68 nm, beginning about 5 mi west of Nitra.

Descent began at 24,423 ft asl and proceeded to 1,711 ft asl in 17 minutes, covering 68 nm, starting 6 mi south-east of Hrinova.

Final approach to runway 01 at LZKZ Košice International Airport started from 1,009 ft agl and descended to 75 ft agl in 124 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 1,905 ft agl at 153 kt; the final flap position 4 was selected at 1,966 ft agl at 178 kt.

Landing was on runway 01, which is 3,105 m long. The threshold height was good and the threshold speed was 130 kt, described as good. The flare was noted as excellent. Touchdown occurred 455 m down the runway at 120 kt, a good speed, with a touchdown rate of minus 269 fpm, described as fair. Runway touchdown alignment was very good and there was no bounce. Total landing distance was 1,115 m, 36 % of the runway, and the rollout alignment was perfect.

After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 2 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.

The flight covered a total of 173 nm in 45 minutes and used 1,898 kg of fuel. Local weather at landing was 9 °C with wind 24 kt from 010°, giving a 24 kt headwind and a 1 kt crosswind.
