What held you back

Arrival Landing — Threshold height at 110 ft agl was excessively over target at 0 %, Flare profile at 0 %, −4.11 points
Departure Climb 2 — bank angle up to 18.5 ° at 56 %, −0.73 points
Departure Climb 3 — bank angle up to 22.0 ° at 48 %, −0.70 points

Next time

Departure

Roll the wings level with aileron and hold bank within limits as you establish the climb.

What happened: Bank increased to 2.1° during the initial climb, and wings stayed over-banked at 20° into the next climb segment.

Watch for: Attitude indicator bank angle, aiming to keep it near wings-level

See Departure Climb 2Departure Climb 3

Arrival

Fly the flare as one continuous check of the sink rate from 37 ft, holding back pressure steadily rather than adjusting pitch piecemeal.

What happened: The flare drifted away from its intended profile rather than tracking it smoothly from 37 ft down to touchdown.

Watch for: Watch radio altitude and VSI through the flare, aiming to arrest the sink smoothly from 37 ft to touchdown.

See Arrival Landing

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

Speed and pitch

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

Lifted off at 120 kt with 3.4° 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 548 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 2,278 m of runway left; then climbing at 1,020 fpm on average to 548 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 3,097 m runway.

Rolled from 62 m in, never more than 1.4 m off the centreline, in 5 kn of crosswind from the left. Airborne 19 % 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

One stabilised approach gate: seven checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.

Sink rate

At the 500 ft gate: sink rate more than 600 fpm beyond what the glideslope needed, glideslope more than 1° off the runway's 3.7°, centreline more than 1° off and speed more than 14 kt above the approach speed of 96 kt.

When the approach was stable

Never every check met at once: high all the way, left of the centreline all the way, fast all the way, banked until 2.8 nm, sinking too fast from 2.8 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 GCRR 21

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

Profile height against the 3.7° glideslope, with its 1° band in green.

High from 4 nm to the threshold (up to 1,730 ft over).

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: 3.7° here, which is about 390 ft for every nautical mile out, crossing the threshold at about 60 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 3× larger than distances along the final.

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 24 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 14 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Fast from 4 nm to the threshold (up to +41 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

No crosswind: nothing to correct for. Touched down straight, wings level.

Wind 200° at 5 kt · 4 kt head · 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.

The stop

From 105 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 16 s, an average deceleration of 0.26 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.

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 1,524 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.

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 the Beechcraft King Air 350 taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Gran Canaria Airport, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles in 9 minutes. The aircraft then departed from runway 21R, taking off with a speed of 121 knots and covering a distance of 551 meters, which was 18% of the runway length.

As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it encountered local weather conditions of 26°C temperature and winds of 9 knots at 159 degrees. The crosswind was 6 knots, while the headwind was 7 knots. The enroute climb started over Gran Canaria Airport, where the aircraft ascended from 621 feet above sea level to 22,433 feet, an increase of 21,812 feet in 16 minutes, covering a distance of 58 nautical miles.

The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, lasting 9 minutes and covering 1 nautical mile, before starting another climb phase 13 miles south of Costa Calma. This climb took the aircraft from 23,208 feet to 27,747 feet, an increase of 4,540 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 17 nautical miles.

The aircraft continued to cruise at various altitudes, with a level cruise phase lasting 25 minutes and covering 73 nautical miles, and another level cruise phase lasting 3 minutes and covering 13 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, starting 21 miles south east of Tarfaya, where it descended from 27,695 feet to 14,424 feet, a decrease of 13,272 feet in 8 minutes, covering a distance of 33 nautical miles.

The aircraft continued its descent, starting 26 miles north west of Tarfaya, where it descended from 14,009 feet to 5,122 feet, a decrease of 8,887 feet in 7 minutes, covering a distance of 21 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, lasting 9 minutes and covering 28 nautical miles, before starting its final descent phase.

The final descent phase started 13 miles east of Punta de Mujeres, where the aircraft descended from 5,091 feet to 3,557 feet, a decrease of 1,535 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 9 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, lasting 3 minutes and covering 9 nautical miles, before starting its final descent phase over Costa Teguise.

The final approach to runway 21 at César Manrique-Lanzarote Airport was made from the north east, with the aircraft heading 210.0 degrees at 0 nautical miles and 423 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 21, which was 2,395 meters long, with the threshold height being excessively high at 110 feet above ground level and the threshold speed being excessively high at 130 knots.

The touchdown point was 401 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 109 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown rate was smooth at -112 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 24°C temperature and winds of 4 knots at 200 degrees, with a crosswind of 0 knots and a headwind of 4 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,230 meters, which was 51% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, and the aircraft then taxied to the parking area, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 4 minutes. The total flight distance was 272 nautical miles, taking 92 minutes, and the aircraft used 474 kilograms of fuel.
