Next time

Departure

Raise the gear lever promptly once a positive rate of climb is confirmed after liftoff.

What happened: The landing gear was never raised during the initial climb and was still down when the climb ended.

Watch for: Landing gear lever: UP promptly after confirming a positive rate of 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

Make sure that you retract the landing gear once you have a positive rate of climb and there is no usable runway left to land back on.

Speed and pitch

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

Rotated at 132 kt, 9 kt below the 141 kt target, and lifted off at 165 kt 6.8 s later, the nose coming up at 1.2° a second. Climb 3 averaged 177 kt, 7 kt under its 184 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 862 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 1,441 m of runway left; then climbing at 2,780 fpm on average to 862 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.

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 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.

At the 1,000 ft gate: speed more than 5 kt below the approach speed of 137 kt.

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 RPLL 24

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

Profile height against the 3.1° glideslope, with its 1° band in green.

Inside the glideslope band from 4 nm to the threshold, never more than 50 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: 3.1° 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 52× larger than distances along the final.

Inside the 1° band all the way from 4 nm, never more than 6 m 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 21 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Inside the speed band all the way, between −7 kt and +6 kt on the approach speed of 137 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 flare68.80

The flare wandered off the target profile. The aircraft was flown onto the runway - pitch changed 0.7° and the descent was barely arrested. Touchdown was 317 m past the threshold. Start the flare with progressive back pressure rather than one pull, and keep it coming.

The crosswind

Little crosswind (1 kt): nothing to correct for. Touched down straight, wings level.

Wind 359° at 2 kt · 1 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 140 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 44 s, an average deceleration of 0.14 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 1,526 m of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 42 ft, close to the 50 ft target; began the flare late, at 11 ft. Touched down 317 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 1,526 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 510 fpm at the flare to 330 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 0.7° 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.

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 A330-900 taxied from the parking area to runway 05R at RCTP Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport in 8 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nm.

During the departure roll on runway 05R, the aircraft accelerated to a liftoff speed of 165 kt and left the ground after traveling 1,533 m, which represented 46 % of the runway length; ambient temperature was 28 °C with a wind of 3 kt from 230°, no cross-wind and a 3 kt tail-wind component.

Climb commenced overhead RCTP, with the airplane rising from 605 ft asl to 34,980 ft asl, an altitude gain of 34,374 ft achieved in 21 minutes while covering 138 nm.

The first cruise segment began 36 miles south of RCHA Hualian Airport and continued for 59 minutes, during which the flight logged 474 nm at level altitude.

Descent started 4 miles west of Cardona in the Philippines; the aircraft descended from 34,303 ft asl to 3,736 ft asl, a loss of 30,567 ft in 16 minutes, traversing 88 nm.

A brief cruise followed, originating 1 mile southeast of Malanday (Calabarzon, Philippines) and lasting 2 minutes while covering 5 nm.

The second descent began 4 miles east of Malanday, with the airplane dropping from 3,455 ft asl to 1,381 ft asl, a reduction of 2,074 ft over 4 minutes and a distance of 11 nm.

On final approach to runway 24 at RPLL Ninoy Aquino International Airport, the aircraft approached from the northeast on a heading of 240.0°, intercepting the glide path at 4 nm and 1,336 ft agl.

Landing on runway 24 was executed with a threshold speed of 134 kt; touchdown occurred 317 m down the runway at 133 kt, with a hard touchdown rate of minus 445 fpm, perfect alignment, and a total landing roll of 1,440 m (40 % of the 3,582 m runway). Local conditions were 34 °C, wind 2 kt from 0°, cross-wind 2 kt and tail-wind 1 kt.

Runway rollout alignment was reported as very good as the aircraft decelerated to a stop.

The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 6 minutes, covering the final 1 nm.

In total, the flight covered 724 nm, lasted 114 minutes, and consumed 10,507 kg of fuel.
