Next time

Departure

Make small rudder corrections against a fixed point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline during the roll.

What happened: The aircraft drifted 47 m off the runway centreline during the ground roll, and wing drift like that usually keeps reappearing as bank in the climb, with 6.3° of bank in the first climb segment and 7.3° still showing in the second.

Watch for: Heading indicator: steady on the runway centreline during the roll, then wings level through the climb.

See Departure RollDeparture Climb 1Departure Climb 2

Arrival

Steepen the descent on final so you cross the threshold at 50 ft, correcting the height error before it carries into speed and touchdown point.

What happened: Crossed the threshold 8 ft agl above the target, carrying excess speed over the numbers; crossing high and fast like this usually carries the touchdown long too, and this flight touched down 367 m beyond the aim point.

Watch for: Radio altimeter: 50 ft at the threshold.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

Landing Summary

The aircraft touched down before the runway threshold with a touchdown speed of 32 kt, which the data rates as good, and a touchdown rate of minus 52 fpm, rated excellent. Weather conditions were 15 °C with a wind from 270° at 6 kt, including a 2 kt crosswind and a 6 kt headwind. The touchdown point was laterally offset by 4.6 m from the centreline.

After touchdown the aircraft rolled out over a total landing distance of 273 m, representing 8 % of the runway length, but the rollout alignment remained off centreline by 16.1 m.

Future landings should target the aim point approximately 300 m (1,000 ft) down the runway to avoid premature touchdown and to provide sufficient distance for alignment correction. Maintaining centreline alignment through the flare and rollout will reduce the lateral deviation observed.
