Next time

Fixing the bounce

See Arrival Touchdown

Fast at the threshold, normal flare, and the runway seems to refuse the aircraft. The instinctive fix - pushing it on - causes the next one. A fast aircraft forced onto the runway touches nosewheel-first or nearly so. The tell is a touchdown that feels soft followed by a bounce that steepens. Pilots fix the bounce recovery; the cause was the 10 knots at the threshold.

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.

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.

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, 1,000 ft 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.

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.

The crosswind

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

Wind 222° at 3 kt · 2 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.

Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 28 ft, 22 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 1,828 ft in, 828 ft past the ideal 1,000 ft.

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 5,000 ft across. The dashed line is the ideal, 50 ft over the threshold and down 1,000 ft 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.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 33 at KPGA Page Municipal Airport. The aircraft, a Spitfire Mk IX, accelerated down the runway, covering a distance of 2,342 feet, which was 39% of the runway's length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 112 knots, marking the start of the takeoff phase.

As the aircraft lifted off the ground, it began its enroute climb, which started 1 mile north of the airport. The Spitfire climbed from an initial altitude of 4,775 feet above sea level to 7,354 feet, an increase of 2,579 feet, in just 1 minute. This climb phase covered a distance of 4 nautical miles. The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 62°F and a wind speed of 1 knot from 270°, resulting in a negligible crosswind.

Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 4 miles north of RB19 Glen Canyon Dam Page. This phase lasted for 2 minutes and covered a distance of 4 nautical miles. The Spitfire then began its enroute descent, which started 2 miles northwest of RB19 Glen Canyon Dam Page. The descent phase saw the aircraft drop from an altitude of 7,486 feet to 4,349 feet, a decrease of 3,138 feet, in 3 minutes. This descent phase covered a distance of 5 nautical miles.

As the aircraft approached the airport, it began its final approach to runway 33 from the south, heading 352.0° at an altitude of 106 feet above ground level. The landing was made on the runway, which had a length of 5,963 feet. The threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was excessively high at 98 knots. The touchdown point was 1,069 feet beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was a little fast at 82 knots. However, the touchdown rate was excellent at -95 feet per minute.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 14 feet from the centreline, and the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 38 feet from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 63°F and a wind speed of 3 knots from 222°, resulting in a crosswind of 2 knots and a tailwind of 2 knots.

The total landing distance was 3,464 feet, which was 58% of the runway's length. The total flight distance was 14 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 7 minutes. The aircraft used -1 pound of fuel during the flight.
