Next time

Arrival

Keep increasing back pressure through the flare after the sink first checks at 10 ft, so it cannot build again before touchdown.

What happened: Sink returned by 307 fpm after the flare had already arrested it at 10 ft, and a firm touchdown usually follows when that happens.

Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: sink rate held steady and decreasing all the way to touchdown.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

There are several things that can go wrong during the flare, carrying too much speed over the threshold, starting the flare at the wrong height and inconsistent flight control inputs, all contribute to a poor flare resulting in a hard touchdown or a float down the runway.

Speed and pitch

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

Rotated at 156 kt, 7 kt above the 149 kt target, and lifted off at 161 kt 2.6 s later, the nose coming up at 3.3° a second. Climb 3 averaged 170 kt, 9 kt under its 179 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 902 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 3,031 ft of runway left; gear up at 195 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 1,860 fpm on average to 902 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 10,802 ft runway.

Rolled from the start of the runway, drifted left of the centreline, 21 ft at the widest, and lifted off 21 ft left. Airborne 61 % 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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 0.5 nm, about 200 ft above the runway, to the threshold, after the 500 ft gate. The last to settle was the sink rate.

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 KLAX 24R

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 30 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, 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.

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 all the way, between +7 kt and +11 kt on the approach speed of 136 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.

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 34 ft, 16 ft below the 50 ft target; began the flare at 26 ft. Touched down 1,707 ft in, 707 ft past the ideal 1,000 ft.

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 went from 620 fpm at the flare to 260 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 2.4° 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 aircraft taxied from the parking area to runway 30L at KSTL St. Louis Lambert International Airport, a movement that lasted 14 minutes and covered 1 nm.

During the departure roll on runway 30L the aircraft used 6,585 ft, representing 61 % of the runway length. Liftoff was achieved at 162 kt. Ambient conditions were temperature 90 °F, wind 3 kt from 268°, with a 2 kt crosswind and a 2 kt headwind.

Climb commenced overhead Bridgeton, Missouri, with the aircraft ascending from 1,548 ft asl to 32,013 ft asl, an increase of 30,464 ft achieved in 17 minutes while covering 103 nm.

Level cruise began 5 miles north of 85MO Willhite Airport Swedeborg, Missouri, and continued for 177 minutes, during which 1,221 nm were flown.

Descent started 2 miles south-east of Joshua Tree, California, with the aircraft descending from 32,021 ft asl to 1,437 ft asl, a loss of 30,584 ft in 22 minutes and covering 104 nm.

The final approach to runway 24R at KLAX Los Angeles International Airport involved a descent from 1,338 ft agl to 69 ft agl in 97 seconds, and the aircraft scored on the stabilisation gates.

Landing on runway 24R, which is 8,901 ft long, was executed with a threshold speed of 143 kt. Touchdown occurred 358 ft beyond the touchdown zone at 138 kt, with a firm touchdown rate of minus 301 fpm and a lateral deviation of 14 ft from the centreline. Local weather at the time was temperature 77 °F, wind 4 kt from 265°, with no crosswind and a 4 kt headwind.

The total landing distance recorded was 4,447 ft, representing 50 % of the runway, and the subsequent rollout was slightly misaligned by 29 ft from the centreline.

After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 6 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nm.

In total, the flight covered 1,438 nm, required 235 minutes of airborne time, and consumed 22,730 lbs of fuel.
