Next time

Departure

Reduce climb power to bring speed back to 168 kt and hold it there.

What happened: Climb speed was 30 kt fast at 198 kt during the climb.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 168 kt in the climb

See Departure Climb 3

Arrival

Use small rudder inputs against a point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline during rollout.

What happened: During the rollout the aircraft drifted 26 m off the centreline.

Watch for: Runway centreline marks: hold the aircraft tracking straight down the centreline through rollout

See Arrival Rollout

A crosswind landing is a geometry problem. The air mass you're flying in is moving sideways across the runway, and you need your ground track down the centreline with your wheels aligned to it at the moment of contact. There are two techniques that will help, the crab and the sideslip.

Speed and pitch

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

Rotated at 129 kt, 3 kt above the 126 kt target, and lifted off at 162 kt 4.8 s later, the nose coming up at 0.7° a second. Climb 3 averaged 198 kt, 30 kt over its 168 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 965 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 2,300 m of runway left; gear up at 56 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 1,970 fpm on average to 965 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.

Plan view the roll down the 3,742 m runway.

Rolled from 185 m in, drifted left of the centreline, 9.5 m at the widest, and lifted off 9.6 m left, in 6 kn of crosswind from the left. Airborne 29 % 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 stabilisation gates

One stabilised approach gate: seven checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out. These checks are the approach's score.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 2.0 to 0.6 nm, then not again: left of the centreline from 0.6 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 LHBP 31R

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 350 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.

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.

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 flare94.38

The flare held the target profile well. The aircraft was flown onto the runway - pitch changed 1.6° and the descent was barely arrested. Touchdown was 397 m past the threshold. Start the flare with progressive back pressure rather than one pull, and keep it coming.

The crosswind

6 kt across from the left, which takes about 3° of crab to hold the centreline at 120 kt. Touched down with 2° of it still on, wings level.

Wind 249° at 7 kt · 3 kt head · 6 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 117 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 28 s, an average deceleration of 0.16 g.

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 60 ft, close to the 50 ft target; began the flare at 23 ft. Touched down 397 m in, 92 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 1,524 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 went from 600 fpm at the flare to 240 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 1.5° on the way down.

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 A321ceo departed from runway 31R at LHBP Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport. Take-off was performed on a 1,098 m roll, using 29 % of the runway, and rotation occurred at 129 kt. Local weather at departure was 14 °C with wind 9 kt from 250°, giving a crosswind component of 8 kt and a headwind component of 4 kt.

Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl took 26 seconds, averaging 1,842 fpm and reaching 193 kt at the top of the climb. The aircraft then climbed from 1,456 ft asl to 2,270 ft asl in under a minute while covering 2 nm, remaining overhead Budapest. Level flight was held at 2,400 ft asl for 1 minute, covering 5 nm, beginning 2 nm north of the airport.

Descent began from 2,138 ft asl to 1,091 ft asl over 3 minutes, covering 9 nm, starting 1 nm south of Pecel. The final approach to runway 31R continued with a descent from 960 ft agl to 69 ft agl in 113 seconds. At 500 ft above the runway all stabilisation checks were met: gear down, landing flap, sink rate, glideslope, centreline, speed, and wings level. Configuration on final was gear down at 931 ft agl at 171 kt; final flap position 5 was selected at 790 ft agl at 144 kt.

The aircraft touched down on runway 31R. Threshold height at 61 ft agl was above target, while threshold speed of 124 kt was good. The flare was described as great, with little round-out. Touchdown occurred 397 m from the threshold at 120 kt, a little fast, with a rate of -242 fpm, which was fair. Runway touchdown alignment was very good and there was no bounce. Total landing distance was 1,279 m, 34 % of the runway, and rollout alignment was misaligned by 26.2 m from the centreline.

Local weather at landing was 13 °C with wind 6 kt from 249°, giving a crosswind component of 5 kt and a headwind component of 3 kt. The flight covered 22 nm in 8 minutes and consumed 9,285 kg of fuel.
