Speed and pitch

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

Lifted off at 165 kt with 6.3° 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.

Reached 35 ft with 3,982 ft of runway left; then climbing at 2,730 fpm on average to 781 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 10,480 ft runway.

Rolled from 269 ft in, drifted left of the centreline, 12 ft at the widest, and lifted off 7 ft right, in 6 kn of crosswind from the right. Airborne 53 % 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

Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 4 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.

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

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. 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.

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 crosswind

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

Wind 026° at 3 kt · 3 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 125 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 47 s, an average deceleration of 0.11 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 5,000 ft of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 38 ft, 12 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 971 ft in, close to 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.

Sink and pitch — through the flare, lined up with the side view.

The sink stayed between 440 fpm and 570 fpm from 38 ft to the runway. The nose came up 1.3° 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 flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 10 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, an Airbus A300, then departed from runway 08R at Miami International Airport (KMIA). The takeoff distance was 5,571 feet, which accounted for 53% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 166 knots.

As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 81°F and winds of 11 knots at 139°. The crosswind was 9 knots, while the headwind was 7 knots. The enroute climb began approximately 1 mile south east of Miami Springs, Florida, and involved a significant ascent from 940 feet above sea level to 33,428 feet above sea level, an increase of 32,488 feet in 21 minutes, covering a distance of 141 nautical miles.

Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 67 miles north of Las Brujas Airport in Cayo Santa Maria, Cuba. This phase lasted for 107 minutes and covered a distance of 818 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, which started 47 miles north of Isla Grande in Panama. The descent from 34,003 feet above sea level to 1,688 feet above sea level, a decrease of 32,315 feet in 19 minutes, covered a distance of 112 nautical miles.

The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 4 miles east of San Felipe in Panama and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 03R at Tocumen International Airport (MPTO) was made from the south west, heading 29.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,215 feet above ground level.

The landing on runway 03R was successful, with a touchdown distance of 973 feet, which was good. The touchdown speed was 126 knots, which was a little fast, and the touchdown rate was hard at -468 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 79°F and winds of 2 knots at 21°, with a crosswind of 0 knots and a headwind of 2 knots.

The total landing distance was 4,550 feet, which accounted for 45% of the runway. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 50 feet from the centreline. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,084 nautical miles, which was covered in 164 minutes, and the aircraft used 29,503 pounds of fuel.
