Speed and pitch

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

Lifted off at 170 kt with 5.5° 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 970 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 297 m of runway left; then climbing at 3,160 fpm on average to 970 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 2,142 m runway.

Rolled from the start of the runway, drifted left of the centreline, 7.4 m at the widest, and lifted off 7.5 m left, in 7 kn of crosswind from the left. Airborne 74 % 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 approach to LSZH 34

The final from 4 nm.

Profile height against the 3.3° 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.

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: 3.3° here, which is about 350 ft for every nautical mile out, crossing the threshold at about 60 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.

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 7 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.

Side view — the last 1,755 m of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 37 ft, 13 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 367 m in, 62 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 1,755 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 910 fpm at 36 ft to 140 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 2.5° 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.

Touched down 8.1 m left of the centreline, and steered back to 0.1 m right by the end of the rollout. No crosswind: nothing to correct for. Touched down straight, wings level.

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 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.

The stop — touchdown to taxi speed.

From 144 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 53 s, an average deceleration of 0.12 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.

Flight narrative

The flight on the Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner began with a 6-minute taxi from the parking area to the runway at Newark Liberty International Airport. The departure roll on runway 22R covered 1,995 meters, which was 93% of the total runway distance. The liftoff speed was 170 knots. The local weather at the time of departure was 20°C with a wind speed of 8 knots coming from 119°, resulting in a crosswind of 8 knots and a headwind of 1 knot.

After takeoff, the enroute climb began 1 mile east of Elizabeth, New Jersey. The climb took the aircraft from 1,069 feet above sea level to 37,512 feet, covering a total of 36,443 feet in altitude over 9 minutes and 159 nautical miles.

The enroute level cruise phase of the flight started 12 miles southeast of Chilmark, Massachusetts and lasted 79 minutes, covering a total distance of 3,182 nautical miles.

The descent portion of the flight started 2 miles southeast of Plombieres-les-Bains, France. The aircraft descended from 37,428 feet to 4,185 feet, covering a total of 33,243 feet in altitude over 12 minutes and 94 nautical miles.

The landing took place on runway 34 at Zurich Airport with a runway length of 3,236 meters. The height at threshold was 37 feet above ground level, and the speed at threshold was 148 knots. The touchdown occurred 367 meters from the threshold, with a speed of 143 knots and a vertical speed indicator reading of -137 feet per minute. The local weather at the time of landing was 12°C with a wind speed of 1 knot blowing from 89°, resulting in a crosswind of 1 knot and no headwind.

The total landing distance was 1,679 meters, which was 52% of the total runway length. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, covering less than 1 nautical mile in 3 minutes.

Overall, the flight covered a total distance of 3,448 nautical miles, lasted 125 minutes, and consumed 38,851 kilograms of fuel.
