Speed and pitch

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

Lifted off at 58 kt with 4.7° 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 801 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 1,163 m of runway left; then climbing at 1,110 fpm on average to 801 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 1,636 m runway.

Rolled from 100 m in, drifted 6.1 m left of the centreline and was back on it to lift off, in 5 kn of crosswind from the left. Airborne 22 % 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

No crosswind: nothing to correct for. Touched down straight, 2° of bank.

Wind 254° at 3 kt · 3 kt tail · 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.

Side view — the last 640 m of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 10 ft, 40 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 42 m in, 263 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 640 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 370 fpm at 10 ft to 290 fpm at touchdown. The pitch barely changed.

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.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 21 at RAF Woodvale, with the aircraft, an AH-Chipmunk 81MIL, taking off after a distance of 265 meters, which accounted for 16% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 58 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 8 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 5 knots from a direction of 129 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 1 knot.

The enroute level cruise started shortly after takeoff, with the aircraft flying overhead Formby in Sefton, England. This initial cruise lasted for just 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then began its descent, starting from an altitude of 1,193 feet above sea level and descending to 467 feet above sea level over a distance of 3 nautical miles in 2 minutes.

Following the descent, the aircraft entered another level cruise phase, this time flying overhead Ince Blundell in Sefton, England. This cruise lasted for 22 minutes and covered a distance of 23 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 08L at City Airport Manchester, flying from the west at a heading of 82.0 degrees and an altitude of 91 feet above ground level.

The landing on runway 08L was successful, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 51 knots and a distance of 40 meters from the threshold. The touchdown rate was fair at -294 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 8 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 3 knots from a direction of 253 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 1 knot and a tailwind of 3 knots.

The total landing distance was 276 meters, which accounted for 43% of the runway. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.2 meters from the centerline. The total flight distance was 27 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 26 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 9 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
