From brake release to the end of the climb, against time, then the takeoff point by point.
Rotated at 158 kt, 3 kt above the 155 kt target, and lifted off at 167 kt 4.0 s later, the nose coming up at 1.7° a second. Climb 3 averaged 190 kt, 6 kt over its 184 kt target.
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.
The takeoff, point by point
Side view from the start of the roll to the end of Climb 3 at 910 ft.
Reached 35 ft with 603 m of runway left; gear up at 58 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 1,720 fpm on average to 910 ft.
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 3,783 m runway.
Rolled from 75 m in, drifted left of the centreline, 7.4 m at the widest, and lifted off 7.5 m left. Airborne 70 % of the way down the runway, before the 75 % line.
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.
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.
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 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 30 ft below the slope.
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.
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 3 m off the centreline.
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 36 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 22 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.
Inside the speed band all the way, between +6 kt and +10 kt on the approach speed of 144 kt.
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.
Over the threshold
Touchdown
Perfect landing flare
No crosswind: nothing to correct for. Touched down with the nose 5° left of the track, wings level.
Wind 100° at 3 kt · 3 kt tail · 0 kt across
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.
From 158 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 43 s, an average deceleration of 0.16 g.
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 1,806 m of the approach.
Crossed the threshold at 47 ft, close to the 50 ft target; began the flare at 20 ft. Touched down 495 m in, 190 m past the ideal 305 m.
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 1,806 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 850 fpm at the flare to 80 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 0.7° 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.
Plan view — the first 1,806 m of the 2,695 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 5.5 m right of the centreline, and steered back to 1.6 m left by the end of the rollout.
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 495 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Boeing 737-900 taxied from the parking area to runway 07 at UCFL Issyk-Kul, a movement that required 8 minutes and covered 2 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 07, the aircraft accelerated to a liftoff speed of 167 kt and left the ground after traveling 2,674 m, which represented 71 % of the runway length. Ambient conditions were 21 °C with a wind of 3 kt from 216°, a 2 kt cross-wind component and a 3 kt tailwind component.
Climb commenced approximately 1 mile east of UAFL Issyk-Kul International Airport Tamchy. The flight ascended from 6,383 ft asl to 34,735 ft asl, a gain of 28,352 ft, over 21 minutes while covering 129 nm.
Level cruise began 41 nm north-east of UAFZ Kazarman Airport and was maintained for 40 minutes, during which the aircraft progressed 268 nm.
Descent was initiated 7 nm north-west of UTRA Garm Airport. The aircraft descended from 34,519 ft asl to 3,830 ft asl, a loss of 30,689 ft, in 22 minutes and traversed 100 nm.
The final approach to runway 27 at UTDD Dushanbe Airport was flown from the east, on a heading of 270.0°, at 4 nm and 1,259 ft agl.
Landing on runway 27, which is 2,695 m long, occurred with a threshold speed of 150 kt. Touchdown was recorded 85 m beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 146 kt, a vertical speed of minus 90 fpm, and a lateral deviation of 5.2 m from the centreline. Weather at the time was 23 °C with a wind of 3 kt from 100°, a 1 kt cross-wind component and a 3 kt tailwind component.
The rollout covered a total landing distance of 1,732 m, representing 64 % of the runway, and alignment during the roll was described as very good.
After exiting the runway, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 507 nm, required 95 minutes of airborne time, and consumed 4,733 kg of fuel.
