Next time

Departure

Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.

What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 5.6°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.

Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.

See Departure Climb 3

Arrival

Begin the flare with progressive back pressure and keep it coming until the sink is arrested, rather than flying it on flat.

What happened: The nose was barely raised in the flare and little of the sink was taken out, flying the aircraft onto the runway. This pattern usually carries through to a firm touchdown with a noticeable sink rate.

Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: a smoothly reducing sink through the normal flare band, not a steady rate into the runway.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

Plan view the roll down the 3,984 m runway.

Rolled from 160 m in, drifted left of the centreline, 7.2 m at the widest, and lifted off 7.2 m left. Airborne 43 % 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 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.

Speed and pitch from brake release to the end of the climb, against time.

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 grey dashed line across the pitch is the attitude held from 35 ft to the end: a nose held steady is a climb speed that holds, and the airspeed trace sits directly above it to compare. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, the part of the climb scored on holding the climb speed.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 2.7 to 1.4 nm, then not again: slow from 1.4 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.

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.

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.

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.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 36 ft, 14 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 330 m in, close to 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.

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.

Wind 110° at 7 kt · 0 kt head · 7 kt across

How to read this

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. 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. The sentence gives the nose against the direction you were actually moving as the wheels touched, and the steepest bank as they touched, the figure the touchdown's Bank tile marks. The rest of it is shown for reading, not marked.

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.

Flight narrative

Departing from Frankfurt Airport, the Boeing 747-8 began its journey with a taxiing period of 13 minutes, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles to reach the runway. At 07R, the aircraft initiated its departure roll, utilizing 43% of the 1,717-meter runway to achieve liftoff at a speed of 191 knots. The local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 14°C, with a wind speed of 11 knots at a direction of 60°, resulting in a 2-knot crosswind and an 11-knot headwind.

As the aircraft climbed away from Frankfurt Airport, it transitioned into an enroute climb phase, which began approximately 1 mile northeast of the airport. The climb from 1,378 feet above sea level to 12,000 feet above sea level was achieved in 4 minutes, covering a distance of 16 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, lasting 2 minutes and covering 9 nautical miles, before initiating another climb phase, this time from 11,923 feet above sea level to 37,434 feet above sea level, an increase of 25,511 feet in 15 minutes and covering 121 nautical miles. The flight continued with multiple level cruise and descent phases, eventually descending from 37,879 feet above sea level to 18,372 feet above sea level in 8 minutes and covering 61 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 22L at Logan International Airport was initiated from the north, with the aircraft descending from 18,239 feet above sea level to 1,153 feet above sea level in 10 minutes and covering 45 nautical miles. The landing was executed with a touchdown speed of 130 knots and a touchdown distance of 327 meters, utilizing 44% of the 2,329-meter runway. The total landing distance was 1,030 meters, and the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 10.2 meters from the centerline. The flight concluded with a taxiing period of 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nautical mile, and a total flight distance of 3,586 nautical miles, utilizing 69,596 kilograms of fuel and taking 477 minutes to complete.
