What went well

Straight touchdown — 2.23 m off the centreline, no bounce
1.18 G at touchdown — inside band
Airborne in 338 m — 54 % of the runway

What held you back

Arrival Landing — Threshold speed was slightly below target at 55 kt at 0 %, Touched down 19 m short of the threshold, so it was never crossed in the air at 0 %, −6.48 points
Departure Taxi — peak taxi speed 44 kt at 31 %, −2.30 points
Pattern Crosswind — Heading 11.8 ° at 55 %, −0.97 points

Next time

Departure

Start bringing the nose up as the speed reaches 56 kt, not after it.

What happened: You started the rotation at 69 kt, 13 kt past the 56 kt rotation speed.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 56 kt at rotation

See Departure Roll

Arrival

Add power on short final to hold speed at 61 kt, correcting the slow threshold speed before it carries through to the flare.

What happened: Threshold speed was slow at 55 kt against 61 kt, and touchdown followed short of the aim point at 19 m. Crossing the threshold slow like this usually carries the touchdown short.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator against 61 kt on short final.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

Every knot above Vref is stored kinetic energy, and energy stored at the threshold must be dissipated in ground effect before the aeroplane will stop flying. Because kinetic energy scales with the square of speed, the excess you must dissipate grows fast. At a 45-knot approach, five knots hot is over a tenth more speed and roughly a quarter more energy to get rid of in ground effect. This is why the fix is never in the flare. It was decided three miles earlier, on final, at the airspeed indicator.

Speed and pitch

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

Rotated at 69 kt, 13 kt above the 56 kt target, and lifted off at 70 kt 0.2 s later with 2.5° 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 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 figure at liftoff is the pitch then.

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 circuit to EDLH 24

Right-hand, 1,000 ft circuit height. The plan shows your circuit over a textbook one for this runway; the profile unrolls the same path from liftoff to the threshold.

Plan landing direction to the left; in pale blue the textbook circuit for your downwind speed, 0.8 nm out at 79 kt

How to read this

The lap from above, with the landing direction to the left: the opposite of the runway drawings. The wide pale-blue line is a textbook circuit for your downwind speed - the downwind a mile out for every 100 kt, every turn at 30° of bank - and your track is drawn over it, each leg in the colour of its mark. The numbers are the four turns, the same as on the profile and the cards below. The 45° line from the threshold is the usual point to turn onto base.

Around the circuit height and bank; the turns are shaded

How to read this

The same lap straightened out, so the height and the bank can be read together. Each shaded stretch is a turn, numbered as on the plan. The green box is circuit height, 1,000 ft, on the downwind. The amber line is 30° of bank, and a turn's steepest bank shows red above 32°. "Turn crosswind from" is the lowest height to start the first turn at.

Off heading: 12° from the leg's heading on average.

Each lap slightly wider and higher than the last, because you're unconsciously using the previous lap as your reference instead of the runway and the numbers. Invisible lap to lap, unmistakable across ten. This is the failure that only measurement catches, because your memory of lap three is gone by lap eight.

Wide: the downwind was 1.6 nm out at 79 kt, where about 0.8 nm suits that speed.

The bomber pattern. A downwind flown so wide that final becomes a two-mile straight-in, quietly converting your circuit session back into the ILS-style approach you were trying to escape. The symptom is that your final leg takes over a minute and you're stabilised with time to spare, every lap. The practice value lives in the compressed judgement of a proper-sized circuit, and a huge one launders it away.

Overshot: went 217 m through the centreline turning final.

Overshooting final. A tailwind component on base sweeps you through the extended centreline, the instinctive correction is to steepen the bank and, when that's not enough, to skid the turn with rudder. In a real aircraft this is the base-to-final stall-spin scenario that kills people. The sim under-punishes it, because a spring yoke transmits no lightening of control force, there's no buffet through your hands, and no seat-of-the-pants sensation of the skid. You get the numbers of the skidded turn without the feel of it. The correct response is the same in both worlds and needs practising until it's reflexive. Don't steepen past 30 degrees, and if you've blown through the centreline, go around and reset.

The approach to EDLH 24

The final from 4 nm.

Profile height against the 3° glideslope, with its 2° band in green.

Inside the glideslope band from 1.9 nm, where the final began, to the threshold, never more than 110 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° 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.

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.

Joined 217 m left of the centreline at 1.9 nm, then inside the band from 0.8 nm to the threshold.

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 31 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 18 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Inside the speed band from 1.9 nm, where the final began, to 1.5 nm, then slow to 1.2 nm (up to −10 kt), then inside the band to 0.8 nm, then slow to the threshold (up to −19 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 flare66.14

The aircraft touched down before the threshold. Everything the flare is measured against - the profile, the crossing height, the aim point - is referenced to a threshold this landing never reached, so read the numbers below as what happened short of the runway, not on it. Landing short is the fault to fix before anything about the hold-off is worth judging.

The crosswind

4 kt across from the left, which takes about 5° of crab to hold the centreline at 42 kt. Touched down with the nose 6° into wind, wings level.

Wind 184° at 5 kt · 3 kt head · 4 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 47 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 9 s, an average deceleration of 0.10 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 628 m of the approach.

Began the flare at 22 ft, 245 m before the threshold; crossed the threshold at 57 ft, close to the 50 ft target; ballooned 2 ft from 20 ft. Touched down 19 m before the threshold.

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 628 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.

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 Cessna Skyhawk taxied from the parking area to runway 24 at EDLH Hamm-Lippewiesen Airfield in 4 minutes, covering 2 nm.

Takeoff was performed on runway 24, using 338 m of runway (54 % of the available length). Rotation occurred at 69 kt. Local weather at departure was temperature 10 °C, wind 5 kt from 182°, with a 4 kt crosswind and a 3 kt headwind.

The initial climb to 400 ft agl lasted 40 seconds, averaging 892 fpm and reaching 66 kt at the top of the climb.

A right-hand circuit was flown. The downwind leg was 3 nm long and was completed in 105 seconds at 1,010 ft agl. The base leg was less than 1 nm and took 55 seconds.

During final approach to runway 24, descent from 555 ft agl to 97 ft agl was made in 93 seconds. At 500 ft above the runway the stabilisation checks were met for gear down, landing flap, sink rate, glideslope, speed, and wings level; the centreline check was not met.

The aircraft touched down on runway 24, 19 m short of the threshold, and the threshold was never crossed in the air. Threshold speed was slightly below target at 55 kt. Flare was described as excellent; the aircraft crossed the threshold high. Touchdown speed was 42 kt, with a touchdown rate of minus 155 fpm and very good runway-touchdown alignment. No bounce occurred.

Total landing distance was 565 m, representing 90 % of the runway length. Runway rollout alignment was slightly off centreline by 9.0 m. Local weather at landing was temperature 10 °C, wind 5 kt from 184°, with a 4 kt crosswind and a 3 kt headwind.

The flight covered 12 nm in 8 minutes and consumed 3 kg of fuel.
