Threshold crossed at 27 ft and 70 kt — both inside band

What held you back

Enroute Descent — stall warning; speed limits at 0 %, g force 0.43 to 3.37 g at 47 %, −3.38 points
Departure Roll — Landing Lights at 0 %, Strobe Lights at 0 %, −1.42 points
Departure Climb 3 — gear not retracted; Landing gear up at 0 %, bank angle up to 10.9 ° at 77 %, −1.22 points

Next time

Departure

Rotate sooner, bringing the nose up at 61 kt rather than letting speed build further.

What happened: You lifted off at 77 kt against a rotation target of 61 kt, rotating late in the ground roll.

Watch for: Watch airspeed and rotate at the target of 61 kt.

See Departure Roll

Arrival

Reduce power earlier on final to bleed speed back to 64 kt before crossing the threshold.

What happened: You crossed the threshold at 70 kt, 6 kt above the 64 kt target.

Watch for: Airspeed, targeting 64 kt at the threshold.

See Arrival Landing

A typical trainer rotates in the mid-50s of knots - a 172 at around 55 KIAS, climbing out at a Vy in the low 70s, though check your own POH rather than memorising Cessna's numbers - and the transferable rule is that Vr sits just above the stall speed in takeoff configuration. Rotate early because "it felt ready" and the aircraft lifts off inside ground effect, where induced drag is reduced, then climbs out of it into more drag. On a marginal-performance day the result is an aircraft that lifts off and then refuses to climb, sagging back towards the runway.

Speed and pitch

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

Lifted off at 77 kt with 2.6° 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. 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 795 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 1,083 m of runway left; then climbing at 890 fpm on average to 795 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 shaded stretch is Climb 3, scored on its average speed against the target.

Plan view the roll down the 1,814 m runway.

Rolled from 31 m in, never more than 1.3 m off the centreline. Airborne 22 % 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 stabilisation gates

One stabilised approach gate: seven checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 1.2 nm, about 410 ft above the runway, to the threshold, after the 500 ft gate. The last to settle was the speed.

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 EGPE 23

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 2.3 nm, where the final began, to the threshold, never more than 90 ft above 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.

Plan distance off the extended centreline, your left at the top, with the 1° band. Sideways distances are drawn 3× larger than distances along the final.

Joined 1,043 m right of the centreline at 2.3 nm, then inside the band from 1.6 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 32 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 19 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Fast from 2.3 nm, where the final began, to 1.2 nm (up to +39 kt), then inside the band to 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 crosswind

Little crosswind (1 kt): nothing to correct for. Touched down with the nose 2° right of the track, wings level.

Wind 270° at 2 kt · 2 kt head · 1 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 54 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 15 s, an average deceleration of 0.09 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 27 ft, 23 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 379 m in, 74 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 440 fpm at 27 ft to 80 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 5.3° 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.

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 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport, a Cessna C182 aircraft taking to the skies. The takeoff distance was 412 meters, which accounted for 23% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 77 knots, and the local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind of 2 knots at 269 degrees.

As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile northwest of Croy in the Scottish Highlands. The climb was steep, with an increase of 141 feet in less than 1 minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then leveled off and entered a cruise phase, lasting 2 minutes and covering 3 nautical miles.

The next climb phase began overhead Avoch, with the aircraft ascending from 1,027 feet to 2,207 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles. Following this, the aircraft entered another cruise phase, lasting 2 minutes and covering 2 nautical miles, as it flew 1 mile northwest of Fortrose.

As the flight continued, the aircraft began its descent, starting 2 miles north of Rosemarkie. The descent was from 2,472 feet to 1,636 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then leveled off and entered another cruise phase, lasting 6 minutes and covering 5 nautical miles, as it flew 2 miles south of Cromarty.

The final approach to runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport was made from the northeast, with the aircraft heading 230 degrees at 1 nautical mile and 420 feet above ground level. The landing was smooth, with a touchdown speed of 56 knots and a touchdown rate of -78 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the total landing distance was 718 meters, accounting for 40% of the runway length.

The runway rollout alignment was also very good, and the total flight distance was 18 nautical miles, taking 17 minutes to complete. The flight used 11 kilograms of fuel, and the local weather conditions remained favorable, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind of 2 knots at 269 degrees.
