Next time

Departure

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

What happened: Climb speed was 75 kt fast at 245 kt during the climb.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 170 kt in the climb

See Departure Climb 3

Arrival

After the sink arrests at 28 ft, keep easing the yoke forward to let the aircraft continue settling rather than pausing above the runway.

What happened: The flare arrested the sink at 28 ft and the aircraft was held level there instead of being let down. Holding off high like this usually carries through to a firm touchdown, and here the touchdown rate was 755 fpm.

Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: a steady, continuing descent through the flare all the way to touchdown.

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.

Speed and pitch

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

Rotated at 139 kt, 9 kt below the 148 kt target, and lifted off at 153 kt 3.0 s later, the nose coming up at 2.4° a second. Climb 3 averaged 245 kt, 75 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 830 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 848 m of runway left; gear up at 121 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 1,270 fpm on average to 830 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.

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 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.

At the 1,000 ft gate: centreline more than 1° off.

At the 500 ft gate: centreline more than 1° off and speed more than 20 kt above the approach speed of 135 kt.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 4 nm to 3.2 nm, then not again: right of the centreline from 3.2 nm and fast from 1.9 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 HEGN 34R

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

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

Inside the glideslope band from 4 nm to the threshold, never more than 70 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° 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.

Inside the 1° band from 4 nm to 3.2 nm, then 231 m right of it from 3.2 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 34 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 20 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Inside the speed band from 4 nm to 1.9 nm, then fast to the threshold (up to +23 kt).

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 flare56.68

The flare strayed well off the target profile. The flare took the sink out 28 ft agl above the runway and the aircraft flew down from there. Touchdown was 244 m past the threshold. Let it come lower before checking the descent - holding off high uses runway and leaves the touchdown to chance.

The crosswind

No crosswind: nothing to correct for. Touched down straight, 2° of bank.

Wind 270° at 1 kt · 0 kt head · 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 138 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 16 s, an average deceleration of 0.36 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 40 ft, close to the 50 ft target; began the flare at 39 ft. Touched down 244 m in, 61 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 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 650 fpm and 840 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 05 at LFBD Bordeaux-Mérignac Airport. Takeoff used 1,771 m of runway (57 % of runway) and rotation occurred at 139 kt. Local weather was 17 °C with wind 1 kt from 270°, a 1 kt crosswind and a 1 kt tailwind.

Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl took 36 seconds, averaging 1,163 fpm and reaching 251 kt at the top. The climb continued from 1,066 ft asl to 25,764 ft asl in 9 minutes, covering 49 nm, starting overhead Le Haillan with a brief level-off at 10,500 ft asl.

The aircraft level-flew at 26,000 ft asl for 259 minutes, covering 1,892 nm, beginning 1 mile west of Puymiclan.

Descent began from 26,001 ft asl to 1,030 ft asl in 13 minutes, covering 75 nm, starting 38 miles south-west of HE21 Ras Shukeir Airport Ras Gharib.

Final approach to runway 34R at HEGN Hurghada International Airport descended from 1,243 ft agl to 35 ft agl in 91 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway met gear down, landing flap, sink rate, glideslope and wings level; they did not meet centreline and speed (at one gate). Configuration was landing gear down at 4,420 ft agl, 297 kt; final flap position 4 at 3,577 ft agl, 301 kt.

Landing on runway 34R (runway length 4,009 m) had a good threshold height. Threshold speed was slightly above target at 144 kt. The flare was poor, held off too high. Touchdown occurred 244 m from the threshold at 138 kt, a little fast, with a very heavy rate of -755 fpm. The touchdown position was excessively misaligned by 62.2 m from centreline. No bounce occurred. Total landing distance was 768 m (19 % of runway) and rollout alignment was excessively misaligned by 68.3 m from centreline.

Taxiing from the runway to parking took 5 minutes and covered less than 1 nm. The total flight covered 2,024 nm in 290 minutes and used 6,553 kg of fuel. Local weather at landing was 15 °C with wind 1 kt from 270°, a 1 kt crosswind and no headwind.
