Next time

Departure

Reduce climb power to bring speed back to 170 kt and hold it there.

What happened: Climb speed was 83 kt fast at 253 kt during the climb.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 170 kt in the climb

See Departure Climb 3

Arrival

Close the throttles further on final so you cross the threshold at 141 kt, removing the excess energy before the flare.

What happened: The aircraft crossed the threshold at 152 kt, 11 kt above the 141 kt target, and the flare was not begun until 1 ft, well inside the normal flare band. Carrying excess speed that late into the approach usually leaves the flare started late and the touchdown arriving firm.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 141 kt at the threshold

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

High on final, the pilot dives to the aim point, converting altitude directly into airspeed, and arrives on-glideslope but 15 knots fast. The vertical profile looks fine; the speed trace does not. It is one of the reasons the stabilised-approach concept - configured, on speed, on path by a gate, commonly 1,000 ft in IMC and 500 ft in VMC - checks speed and path together, and why the tolerances airlines use are asymmetric, typically allowing more on the fast side than the slow, because slow kills faster than fast.

Speed and pitch

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

Rotated at 139 kt, on the 140 kt target, and lifted off at 151 kt 2.3 s later, the nose coming up at 2.7° a second. Climb 3 averaged 253 kt, 83 kt over its 170 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 789 ft. The distance scale changes past the runway end.

Reached 35 ft with 1,140 m of runway left; gear up at 130 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 990 fpm on average to 789 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 2,915 m runway.

Rolled from 374 m in, never more than 1.5 m off the centreline. Airborne 45 % of the way down the runway, before the 75 % line.

How to read this

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 1.0 nm, then not again: fast from 1.0 nm and high from 0.5 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 LIEO 05

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

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

On the glideslope from 4 nm to 0.5 nm, then high to the threshold (up to 80 ft over).

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.

Plan distance off the extended centreline, your left at the top, with the 1° band. Sideways distances are drawn 5× larger than distances along the final.

Inside the 1° band all the way from 4 nm, never more than 77 m 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 35 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 21 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

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 flare36.00

The flare strayed well off the target profile. Crossing the threshold 11 kt above target, the flare began at 1 ft agl above the runway, lower than this aircraft wants. Touchdown was 514 m past the threshold. Begin raising the nose earlier - a late flare leaves no time to arrest the sink.

The crosswind

No crosswind: nothing to correct for. Touched down straight, wings level.

Wind 269° 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 148 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 18 s, an average deceleration of 0.34 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 1,524 m of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 65 ft, 15 ft above the 50 ft target; began the flare late, at 1 ft. Touched down 514 m in, 210 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 stayed between 620 fpm and 620 fpm from the flare to the runway. The pitch barely changed.

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.

Flight narrative

The Airbus A320neo departed from runway 10 at LIMJ Genoa Cristoforo Colombo Airport. The take-off roll was 1,319 m, 45 % of the runway, and rotation occurred at 139 kt. Local weather was 17 °C with wind 1 kt from 270°, crosswind 0 kt and tailwind 1 kt.

Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl took 45 seconds, averaging 922 fpm and reaching 248 kt at the top. The aircraft then climbed from 823 ft asl to 15,344 ft asl in 5 minutes while covering 22 nm, starting 1 mile west of Genoa. A series of three short climbs, descents and level legs between 15,000 ft asl and 19,000 ft asl was flown for 5 minutes over 26 nm, from 20 nm south-west of Portofino to 30 nm south of Portofino. Level flight at 19,000 ft asl continued for 23 minutes, covering 164 nm, beginning 41 nm south-east of Laigueglia. Descent from 19,008 ft asl to 1,604 ft asl was completed in 10 minutes over 50 nm, starting 2 nm south-west of Luogosanto.

Final approach to runway 05 at LIEO Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport began with a descent from 1,623 ft agl to 102 ft agl in 89 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway were met for gear down, landing flap, sink rate, glideslope, centreline, speed and wings level. The landing gear was down at 1,307 ft agl, 205 kt, and final flap position 3 was selected at the same altitude and speed.

Landing on runway 05 (runway length 2,441 m) had a threshold height of 66 ft agl, which was above target, and a threshold speed of 152 kt, slightly above target. The flare was very poor, starting late. Touchdown occurred 99 m beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 147 kt, a little fast, with a heavy rate of -620 fpm. Runway-touchdown alignment was very good and no bounce occurred. Total landing distance was 1,131 m, 46 % of the runway, and rollout alignment was perfect.

Taxiing from the runway to the parking area took 7 minutes and covered 1 nm. The total flight distance was 271 nm, the flight time 54 minutes, and fuel used was 953 kg. Local weather at Olbia was 15 °C with wind 1 kt from 270°, crosswind 1 kt and tailwind 1 kt.
