What went well

Touchdown 186 m in — inside the full-score zone
Straight touchdown — 4.12 m off the centreline, no bounce
Rollout controlled — 9 % of the runway used

What held you back

Departure Roll — Liftoff speed was 91 kt at 0 %, Runway alignment max 21.98 m left at 31 %, −2.82 points
Arrival Approach — 500 ft gate 71 %, −2.38 points
Arrival Landing — Threshold speed was well above target at 74 kt at 73 %, Flare profile at 81 %, −1.05 points

Next time

Departure

Ease the nose up sooner to lift off at 50 kt instead of letting speed build on the ground.

What happened: The aircraft lifted off at 91 kt, 41 kt above the target liftoff speed.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 50 kt at liftoff

See Departure Roll

Arrival

Reduce power earlier on final to bleed speed back to 62 kt before crossing the threshold.

What happened: You crossed the threshold at 74 kt, 12 kt above the 62 kt target.

Watch for: Airspeed, targeting 62 kt at the threshold.

See Arrival Landing

Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

Flight narrative

The aircraft departed from runway 26L at EGKK London Gatwick Airport, achieving a take-off distance of 144 m, which represents 5 % of the runway length. Liftoff occurred at 91 kt under a temperature of 20 °C, a wind of 16 kt from 240°, with a 5 kt cross-wind component and a 16 kt head-wind component.

During the climb the airplane rose from 1,257 ft asl to 1,961 ft asl, gaining 705 ft in two minutes while covering three nautical miles, with the climb commencing overhead EGKK London Gatwick Airport.

The level cruise began over Rusper, West Sussex, and persisted for three minutes, during which the aircraft travelled ten nautical miles at a steady altitude.

Descent commenced from 1,541 ft agl down to 85 ft agl in 149 seconds, a controlled reduction in altitude preceding the final approach.

The final approach to runway 26L at EGKK was executed after the descent, with the aircraft aligning for landing while maintaining the approach profile.

Landing was made on runway 26L, whose total length is 2,882 m; the threshold speed was recorded at 74 kt, above the target. Touchdown occurred 185 m down the runway at a speed of 70 kt, with a descent rate of minus 189 fpm. The touchdown point was offset 4.1 m from the centreline. Local conditions at landing were a temperature of 19 °C, wind 25 kt from 240°, an 8 kt cross-wind and a 24 kt head-wind. The total landing distance measured 284 m, equivalent to 10 % of the runway.

Rollout alignment was noted as slightly off centreline by 9.4 m, but the aircraft decelerated safely to a stop.

In total the flight covered 17 nm, took 8 minutes, and consumed 2 kg of fuel.
