Threshold crossed at 46 ft and 139 kt — both inside band
Flare on profile — 100 %

What held you back

Arrival Rollout — Runway alignment max 27.8 ft left at 94 %, −0.17 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown distance was 1,809 ft at 90 %, −0.13 points

Next time

Arrival

Adjust your approach path so you touch down at the 1,500 ft aim point instead of beyond it.

What happened: Touchdown point came 309 ft past the target, landing at 1,809 ft against the 1,500 ft aim point. Landings that touch down this far beyond the aim point typically leave less runway available for stopping.

Watch for: Touchdown distance marker: 1,500 ft from the threshold.

See Arrival Touchdown

Ground control varies with speed, full authority at walking pace, progressively reducing as groundspeed rises. The aircraft becomes twitchy at any speed, every small pedal input swings the nose, which can encourage large-amplitude leg inputs that no real aircraft would accept.

Speed and pitch

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

Rotated at 149 kt, 3 kt above the 146 kt target, and lifted off at 154 kt 6.3 s later, the nose coming up at 1.9° a second. Climb 3 averaged 156 kt, 14 kt under 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 936 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 3,359 ft of runway left; gear up at 433 ft, inside the 668 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 810 fpm on average to 936 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 10,008 ft runway.

Rolled from 382 ft in, drifted right of the centreline, 15 ft at the widest, and lifted off 11 ft left. Airborne 60 % 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 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 KGSP 22

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 40 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, 1,000 ft 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 26× larger than distances along the final.

Inside the 1° band all the way from 4 nm, never more than 50 ft 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.

Speed against the approach speed. The green band runs from 5 kt slow to 34 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 20 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Inside the speed band all the way, between +2 kt and +4 kt on the approach speed of 136 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

Little crosswind (2 kt): nothing to correct for. Touched down straight, wings level.

Wind 053° at 7 kt · 6 kt tail · 2 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 141 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 136 s, an average deceleration of 0.04 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 5,000 ft of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 46 ft, close to the 50 ft target; began the flare at 19 ft. Touched down 1,809 ft in, 809 ft past the ideal 1,000 ft.

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 5,000 ft across. The dashed line is the ideal, 50 ft over the threshold and down 1,000 ft 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 280 fpm at the flare to 100 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 2.5° 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.

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.

Flight narrative

The Airbus A320neo departed Charlotte Douglas International Airport (KCLT) on runway 36C. The take-off roll used 6,016 ft, about 60 % of the runway, and rotation occurred at 149 kt. Local weather at departure was temperature 60 °F, wind 4 kt from 122°, with a 3 kt crosswind and a 3 kt tailwind.

Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl lasted 66 seconds, averaging 2,071 fpm and reaching 154 kt at the top of the segment. The aircraft then climbed from 1,672 ft asl to 10,688 ft asl in 9 minutes, covering 14 nm, beginning about 1 mile north of KCLT. Cruise was level between 9,700 ft asl and 11,000 ft asl for 16 minutes, covering 32 nm, starting roughly 2 miles south of Gastonia Municipal Airport (KAKH). Descent began from 9,275 ft asl to 2,199 ft asl in 20 minutes, covering 24 nm, starting about 2 miles north of Pacolet.

For the final approach to runway 22 at Greenville Spartanburg International Airport (KGSP), descent from 1,286 ft agl to 48 ft agl took 280 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway were all met: gear down, landing flap, sink rate, on glideslope, on centreline, on speed, wings level. The aircraft was in final flap position 4 at 2,177 ft agl with a speed of 176 kt.

Landing on runway 22, which is 10,985 ft long, occurred with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 139 kt. The flare was described as perfect. Touchdown was 356 ft beyond the touchdown zone, at a speed of 134 kt, with a vertical rate of minus 97 fpm. The touchdown point was slightly off centreline by 24 ft. No bounce occurred. Total landing distance was 4,225 ft, representing 38 % of the runway, and rollout alignment was slightly off centreline by 28 ft.

Local weather at KGSP was temperature 62 °F, wind 6 kt from 053°, with a 2 kt crosswind and a 6 kt tailwind. After landing, the aircraft taxied to parking in 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nm. The entire flight covered 102 nm, lasted 74 minutes, and used 2,258 lb of fuel.
