What went well

Touched down at -131 fpm — a soft arrival
Threshold crossed at 25 ft and 145 kt — both inside band
Straight touchdown — 0.9 ft off the centreline, no bounce

What held you back

Departure Climb 3 — climb speed 156 kt against 179 kt at 87 %, −0.34 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown distance was 1,804 ft at 90 %, −0.10 points

Next time

Departure

Lower the nose and add power to raise climb speed to 179 kt.

What happened: Climb speed was 156 kt against a target of 179 kt, running 23 kt slow through the climb.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator against the climb target of 179 kt.

See Departure Climb 3

Arrival

Hold the approach aim point and let the aircraft settle onto 1,500 ft instead of holding it off in the flare.

What happened: Touchdown point came 304 ft past the target, landing at 1,804 ft against the 1,500 ft aim point, with threshold speed and the flare both within limits.

Watch for: Touchdown distance marker: 1,500 ft from the threshold.

See Arrival Touchdown

Between four hundred and a thousand feet you're heavy, close to the ground and still carrying flap, and speed is the margin holding all three apart. Slow here doesn't feel like anything — the aeroplane climbs, the nose is up, nothing complains — right up until a turn, a gust or a bank tightens the wing's job and the margin is already gone. The fix is rarely "fly faster", it's lowering the nose a degree and letting the speed build before the next thing you do. Pitch buys altitude, speed buys options, and at this height options are the scarcer of the two.

Speed and pitch

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

Rotated at 140 kt, 5 kt below the 145 kt target, and lifted off at 146 kt 2.4 s later, the nose coming up at 3.4° a second. Climb 3 averaged 156 kt, 23 kt under its 179 kt target.

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 figures at liftoff are the pitch then and how fast the nose came up, in degrees a second. 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 906 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 5,325 ft of runway left; gear up at 230 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 1,770 fpm on average to 906 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 gear-up ring is coloured by its mark. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, scored on its average speed against the target.

Plan view the roll down the 10,788 ft runway.

Rolled from the start of the runway, drifted left of the centreline, 17 ft at the widest, and lifted off 13 ft left. Airborne 40 % 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 stabilisation gates

Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 4 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 KMCO 36L

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

Profile height against the 3° glideslope, with its 1° band in green.

Inside the glideslope band from 4 nm to the threshold, never more than 50 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, 1,000 ft 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.

Plan distance off the extended centreline, your left at the top, with the 1° band. Sideways distances are drawn 52× larger than distances along the final.

Inside the 1° band all the way from 4 nm, never more than 10 ft off the centreline.

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 34 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 20 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Inside the speed band all the way, between +9 kt and +11 kt on the approach speed of 136 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 347° at 2 kt · 2 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 72 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 19 s, an average deceleration of 0.12 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 5,000 ft of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 25 ft, 25 ft below the 50 ft target; began the flare at 17 ft. Touched down 1,804 ft in, 804 ft past the ideal 1,000 ft.

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 5,000 ft across. The dashed line is the ideal, 50 ft over the threshold and down 1,000 ft 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 550 fpm at the flare to 130 fpm at touchdown. The pitch barely changed.

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.

A subsequent level cruise segment started 1 mile west of FL46 Bartram Farms Air Park, Elkton, Florida, lasting 5 minutes and covering 14 nm.

The next descent began 2 miles west of Saint Cloud, Florida, with altitude decreasing from 2,979 ft asl to 1,328 ft asl, a reduction of 1,651 ft in 2 minutes and a distance of 5 nm.

Final approach to runway 36L at KMCO Orlando International Airport was flown from the south on a heading of 359.0° at 4 nm and 1,221 ft agl, followed by a further descent from 1,278 ft agl to 34 ft agl in 95 seconds, meeting the stabilization-gate criteria.

The aircraft touched down on runway 36L, whose length is 12,015 ft, with a threshold speed of 145 kt. Touchdown occurred 436 ft beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 140 kt and a vertical rate of minus 50 fpm; runway alignment was recorded as perfect. Local weather was a temperature of 81 °F, wind 2 kt from 345°, with a 1 kt crosswind and a 2 kt headwind.

Landing roll measured 4,562 ft (38 % of the runway), and the rollout alignment remained perfect.

After landing, the aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area; this taxi-in required 11 minutes and covered 2 nm.

Overall, the flight covered 523 nm, required 102 minutes of airborne time, and consumed 9,090 lbs of fuel.
