Next time

Departure

Rotate sooner, bringing the nose up at 84 kt rather than letting speed build further.

What happened: You lifted off at 106 kt against a rotation target of 84 kt, rotating late in the ground roll.

Watch for: Watch airspeed and rotate at the target of 84 kt.

See Departure Roll

Arrival

Track the centreline through touchdown using small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway.

What happened: The aircraft touched down off the centreline at 1.4 m, and drifting off centreline at touchdown usually carries through into the rollout, as it did here with alignment reaching 19 m.

Watch for: Watch runway centreline position, keeping deviation inside the limit through touchdown and rollout.

See Arrival LandingArrival Rollout

A tailwind component on base sweeps you through the extended centreline, the instinctive correction is to steepen the bank and, when that's not enough, to skid the turn with rudder. In a real aircraft this is the base-to-final stall-spin scenario that kills people. Don't steepen past 30 degrees, and if you've blown through the centreline, go around and reset.

Speed and pitch

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

Lifted off at 105 kt with 4.1° 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 734 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 1,298 m of runway left; then climbing at 870 fpm on average to 734 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 2,312 m runway.

Rolled from the start of the runway, drifted left of the centreline, 5.9 m at the widest, and lifted off 5.8 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.

At the 300 ft gate: sink rate more than 600 fpm beyond what the glideslope needed and centreline more than 1° off.

When the approach was stable

Never every check met at once: left of the centreline from 0.7 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 LOWZ 26

The final from 4 nm, with the stabilisation gates on it.

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

Inside the glideslope band from 1.0 nm, where the final began, to the threshold, never more than 170 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.

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 334 m right of the centreline at 1.0 nm, then 72 m left of it from 0.7 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 43 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 26 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Inside the speed band all the way, between −13 kt and +2 kt on the approach speed of 85 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 crosswind

No crosswind: nothing to correct for. Touched down with the nose 2° right of the track, wings level.

Wind 270° at 2 kt · 2 kt head · 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 80 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 12 s, an average deceleration of 0.23 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 534 m of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 16 ft, 34 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 268 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 534 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.

From 14 ft the descent stopped and turned into a climb of 220 fpm before coming down at 240 fpm to touch. The nose came up 2.2° 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 flight began with a quick taxiing process from the parking area to the runway, taking less than a minute and covering a distance of less than a nautical mile. The aircraft, a DA62, then departed from runway 33 at LOWS Salzburg Airport, with a takeoff distance of 865 meters, which was 37% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 106 knots, and the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 16°C, a wind speed of 2 knots at 269°, with a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 1 knot.

As the aircraft climbed out of Salzburg Airport, it began its enroute climb 1 mile south of Freilassing, Germany, at an altitude of 2,165 feet above sea level. The climb continued for 12 minutes, covering a distance of 12 nautical miles, and reaching an altitude of 12,009 feet above sea level, an increase of 9,843 feet. The enroute level cruise then started 2 miles east of Berchtesgaden, Germany, and lasted for 5 minutes, covering a distance of 13 nautical miles.

The aircraft then began its enroute descent 2 miles north of Saalfelden am Steinernen Meer, Austria, from an altitude of 11,680 feet above sea level to 5,245 feet above sea level, a decrease of 6,434 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise then started overhead Saalfelden am Steinernen Meer and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then began its final descent 1 mile south of Saalfelden am Steinernen Meer, from an altitude of 4,815 feet above sea level to 3,292 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,523 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles.

The enroute level cruise then started overhead Maishofen, Austria, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 26 at LOWZ Zell am See Airfield from the east, heading 257.0° at 0 nautical miles and 127 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 26, which had a length of 534 meters. The threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 78 knots.

The touchdown point was very long, using more than 50% of the available runway, and the touchdown speed was a little fast at 78 knots. However, the touchdown rate was good at -199 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 20.8 meters from the centreline. The local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 15°C, a wind speed of 2 knots at 269°, with a crosswind of 0 knots and a headwind of 2 knots.

The total landing distance was 560 meters, which was 105% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 19.2 meters from the centreline. The taxiing process from the runway to the parking area took less than a minute and covered a distance of less than a nautical mile. The total flight distance was 38 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 25 minutes, with a fuel consumption of 20 kilograms.
