A good takeoff has a defined shape. It also has a defined end. For an airliner that's thrust reduction and acceleration, commonly somewhere around 1,000 to 1,500 ft above the airfield depending on the operator, while for a light aircraft it's established at Vy with the flaps on schedule. Most simmers have no defined end to their takeoff, which is exactly why it never gets judged.

Speed and pitch

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

Lifted off at 71 kt with 2.3° 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.

Side view from the start of the roll to 112 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 106 m of runway left; then climbing at 480 fpm on average to 112 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.

Rolled from 198 m in, drifted right of the centreline, 2.4 m at the widest, and lifted off 2.4 m right. Airborne 52 % 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 crosswind

Little crosswind (1 kt): nothing to correct for. Touched down with the nose 2° left of the track, 3° of bank.

Wind 270° at 2 kt · 0 kt tail · 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 51 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 8 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 787 m of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 8 ft, 42 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 148 m in, 157 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 787 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 200 fpm at 7 ft to 40 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 2.8° 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.

Plan view — the full 787 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.

Touched down 2.1 m right of the centreline, and stayed within 2.4 m of it down the rollout.

How to read this

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.

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 16 at PASO Seldovia Airport, where the aircraft, a PA28 Warrior II, successfully took off after covering 29% of the 229-meter runway. The liftoff speed was 71 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 16°C and a gentle wind of 2 knots at 269 degrees.

As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead Seldovia, Alaska. The climb was quite steep, with the aircraft rising from an initial altitude of 151 feet above sea level to 564 feet in just 1 minute, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile. Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 3 minutes and covered another 1 nautical mile.

The final approach to runway 34 at PASO Seldovia Airport was initiated from the south, with the aircraft heading at 9.0 degrees and at an altitude of 23 feet above ground level. The landing was smooth, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 51 knots and a touchdown distance of 146 meters, which was well within the acceptable limits. The touchdown rate was also perfect, at -37 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were similar to those at takeoff, with a temperature of 15°C and a gentle wind of 2 knots at 270 degrees. The total landing distance was 329 meters, which accounted for 42% of the 787-meter runway. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.

In total, the flight covered a distance of 2 nautical miles and lasted for 7 minutes, consuming 1 kilogram of fuel. The flight was characterized by a smooth and controlled climb, cruise, and descent, with good weather conditions throughout.
