A good takeoff has a defined shape. It also has a defined end. For an airliner that's thrust reduction and acceleration, commonly somewhere around 1,000 to 1,500 ft above the airfield depending on the operator, while for a light aircraft it's established at Vy with the flaps on schedule. Most simmers have no defined end to their takeoff, which is exactly why it never gets judged.

Speed and pitch

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

Lifted off at 70 kt with 2.3° 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.

Rolled from 42 m in, drifted right of the centreline, 2.4 m at the widest, and lifted off 2.4 m right. Airborne 52 % 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 crosswind

Little crosswind (2 kt): nothing to correct for. Touched down with the nose 2° left of the track, 3° of bank.

Wind 270° at 2 kt · 0 kt tail · 2 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 52 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 9 s, an average deceleration of 0.13 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 8 ft, 42 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 147 m in, 157 m short of 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 787 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 180 fpm at 7 ft to 50 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 2.8° on the way down.

How to read this

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.

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 flight began with a departure roll from runway 16 at PASO Seldovia Airport, where the aircraft, a PA28 Warrior II, accelerated down the 394-meter runway, using only 50% of its length to take off. The liftoff speed was achieved at 71 knots, marking the start of the aircraft's ascent into the sky.

As the aircraft climbed, it began its enroute climb phase, which started overhead Seldovia, Alaska. From an initial altitude of 150 feet above sea level, the aircraft rapidly ascended to 580 feet, a gain of 429 feet in just one minute, while covering a distance of one nautical mile. This impressive climb rate allowed the aircraft to quickly reach its cruising altitude.

Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered its level cruise phase, which lasted for three minutes and covered another nautical mile. This stable and efficient cruise phase allowed the aircraft to conserve fuel and maintain a steady altitude.

As the flight progressed, the aircraft began its final approach to runway 34 at PASO Seldovia Airport, coming in from the south at a heading of 9.0 degrees and an altitude of 23 feet above ground level. The aircraft maintained a steady descent, with the pilot carefully controlling the aircraft's speed and altitude to ensure a smooth landing.

The landing itself was a success, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 51 knots and a distance of 146 meters. The touchdown rate was perfect, at -48 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The aircraft's speed was slightly below the target threshold speed, but still within a safe margin.

After landing, the aircraft rolled out of the runway, maintaining perfect alignment and control. The total landing distance was 324 meters, which was only 41% of the runway's length. The pilot's skill and control allowed the aircraft to come to a stop quickly and safely.

In total, the flight covered a distance of three nautical miles, using a total of five minutes of flight time and burning 65 kilograms of fuel. The flight was a testament to the pilot's skill and the aircraft's performance, with a smooth and efficient flight from takeoff to landing.
