Next time

Departure

Ease the nose up sooner to lift off at 70 kt instead of letting speed build on the ground.

What happened: The aircraft lifted off at 85 kt, 15 kt above the target liftoff speed.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 70 kt at liftoff

See Departure Roll

The 45-degrees-behind-the-wing cue assumes you can turn your head and use peripheral vision. Downwind spacing cues like "put the wingtip halfway up the strut" assume a fixed, known eyepoint. Neither survives a monitor unmodified. If you fly on a fixed monitor, stop pretending and fly a numbers-based circuit.

Speed and pitch

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

Lifted off at 85 kt with 1.0° 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.

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 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

One stabilised approach gate for a circuit: seven checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate is an instrument-approach check and does not apply.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 2.1 nm, about 730 ft above the runway, to the threshold, before the 500 ft gate.

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 EGPK 12

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

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

Inside the glideslope band from 2.4 nm, where the final began, to the threshold, never more than 60 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. A ring is a stabilisation gate: green when every check there passed, amber with the failed checks named beside it.

Joined 297 m left of the centreline at 2.4 nm, then inside the band from 2.1 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 40 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 24 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Inside the speed band all the way, between −3 kt and +4 kt on the approach speed of 79 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 with the nose 2° right of the track, wings level.

Wind 270° at 1 kt · 1 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.

The stop

From 58 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 20 s, an average deceleration of 0.07 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.

Crossed the threshold at 54 ft, close to the 50 ft target. Touched down 651 m in, 347 m past 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 1,524 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.

Sink and pitch — through the flare, lined up with the side view.

The sink went from 490 fpm at 53 ft to 70 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 8.1° 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.

Flight narrative

This flight involved a PA28 Arrow III aircraft, which took off from runway 30 at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport. Taxiing from the parking area to the runway was a quick process, taking less than a minute and covering a short distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The departure roll from runway 30 began with a relatively low takeoff distance, using just 25% of the runway at 689 meters. The liftoff speed was 85 knots.

The local weather conditions during the flight included a temperature of 16°C and a wind speed of 1 knot at 269°. As a result, the aircraft experienced a nearly negligible crosswind and headwind, both at 1 knot. The pilot then proceeded to follow a left-hand pattern, entry to the pattern from runway 30 taking less than 1 nautical mile in 159 seconds. The left-hand pattern crosswind was minimal, allowing the pilot to quickly make the turn, covering the distance in just 23 seconds.

The pilot then entered the downwind leg of the pattern, flying a distance of 3 nautical miles at a 45-degree angle to the runway, corresponding to an angle of 6.1 degrees. The downwind leg itself was short, lasting just 13 seconds and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

After completing the downwind leg, the pilot began the final approach to runway 12, flying from a northwest direction at a heading of 121.0°. The aircraft was at an altitude of 631 feet above ground level when it was 2 nautical miles away from the runway.

The pilot landed the aircraft on runway 12, a runway with a length of 2,737 meters. The touchdown height was slightly above the target of 56 feet above ground level, but the touchdown speed was respectable at 57 knots. The touchdown rate was excellent, at -66 feet per minute. Unfortunately, the runway touchdown position was not perfectly aligned, being 5.7 meters off-center from the centerline.

The local weather conditions during landing included a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 1 knot at 270°, resulting in a very minimal crosswind and a tailwind of 1 knot. As a result, the total landing distance was 1,092 meters, or 40% of the runway's length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating a successful landing.

The total flight distance was relatively short, at just 6 nautical miles. The flight duration was 7 minutes, and the aircraft consumed a total of -105 kilograms of fuel, indicating that the flight was likely a training or practice exercise.
