What went well

Touched down at -81 fpm — a soft arrival
Threshold crossed at 33 ft and 93 kt — both inside band
Straight touchdown — 1.12 m off the centreline, no bounce

What held you back

Pattern Base Leg Turn — Angle to runway (45 degrees) 96.0 ° at 0 %, −1.43 points
Departure Climb 2 — scored 90.00 %, −1.11 points
Departure Roll — Takeoff Bounce at 80 %, Liftoff speed was 104 kt at 86 %, −0.83 points

Next time

Departure

Ease back pressure in smoothly as you approach 90 kt, holding a steady rotation rate rather than snatching the controls.

What happened: On the takeoff roll the aircraft bounced before becoming fully airborne.

Watch for: Attitude indicator: a smooth, continuous pitch-up through liftoff with no secondary bounce.

See Departure Roll

Base. Turn 90 degrees towards the runway when the threshold sits about 45 degrees behind your shoulder. Descend at around 80 kt with second-stage flap. The geometry of that 45-degree cue isn't arbitrary. It produces a base leg long enough to lose roughly 500 ft at about 500 fpm before the final turn. Once you know that's what the cue is for, you can derive your own turn point for any aircraft and any speed.

The circuit to EGPE 23

Right-hand, 1,000 ft circuit height. The plan shows your circuit over a textbook one for this runway; the profile unrolls the same path from liftoff to the threshold.

Plan landing direction to the left; in pale blue the textbook circuit for your downwind speed, 1.4 nm out at 141 kt

How to read this

The lap from above, with the landing direction to the left: the opposite of the runway drawings. The wide pale-blue line is a textbook circuit for your downwind speed - the downwind a mile out for every 100 kt, every turn at 30° of bank - and your track is drawn over it, each leg in the colour of its mark. The numbers are the four turns, the same as on the profile and the cards below. The 45° line from the threshold is the usual point to turn onto base.

How to read this

The same lap straightened out, so the height and the bank can be read together. Each shaded stretch is a turn, numbered as on the plan. The green box is circuit height, 1,000 ft, on the downwind. The amber line is 30° of bank, and a turn's steepest bank shows red above 32°. "Turn crosswind from" is the lowest height to start the first turn at.

High on downwind: 1,215 ft against 1,000 ft, 215 ft above.

Downwind. Parallel to the runway, opposite the landing direction, at pattern altitude and roughly 90 kt. The single most important moment of the entire circuit is the point abeam your intended touchdown point. Power back (around 1,700 RPM in a 172 works as a starting value to calibrate), first stage of flap, pre-landing flow, and re-trim. Everything from abeam to touchdown is one continuous energy problem. Arrive at the abeam point high or fast and you'll pay for it ninety seconds later in the flare, which is why analysing only the touchdown so often misdiagnoses the fault.

Early: turned base with the threshold 96° behind, against 45°.

Base. Turn 90 degrees towards the runway when the threshold sits about 45 degrees behind your shoulder. Descend at around 80 kt with second-stage flap. The geometry of that 45-degree cue isn't arbitrary. It produces a base leg long enough to lose roughly 500 ft at about 500 fpm before the final turn. Once you know that's what the cue is for, you can derive your own turn point for any aircraft and any speed.

The approach to EGPE 23

The final from 4 nm.

Profile height against the 3° glideslope, with its 2° band in green.

Inside the glideslope band from 0.8 nm, where the final began, to the threshold, never more than 200 ft above 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.

Plan distance off the extended centreline, your left at the top, with the 1° band. Sideways distances are drawn 3× larger than distances along the final.

Joined 44 m left of the centreline at 0.8 nm, then inside the band from 0.2 nm to the threshold.

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 42 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 25 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Fast from 0.8 nm, where the final began, to the threshold (up to +21 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.

Calm: nothing to correct for. Touched down straight, wings level.

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 71 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 13 s, an average deceleration of 0.17 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 1,524 m of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 33 ft, 17 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 580 m in, 275 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 620 fpm at 31 ft to 80 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 4.5° on the way down.

How to read this

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 Velocity XL aircraft departed from runway 23 at Inverness Airport (EGPE) with a takeoff distance of 514 meters, which accounted for 28% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 104 knots. At the time of departure, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 9 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 329 degrees. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and headwind.

As the aircraft entered the right-hand pattern, it did so from runway 23, with the distance covered being less than 1 nautical mile in 53 seconds. The subsequent right-hand pattern crosswind leg was completed in under 10 seconds. The pattern downwind turn covered a distance of 3 nautical miles, with an angle to the runway of 54.3 degrees. The downwind leg itself was completed in 12 seconds, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

The pattern base leg turn was executed with a distance of 2 nautical miles, and an angle to the runway of 96.0 degrees. The base leg itself was completed in 17 seconds, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The final turn was completed in 26 seconds, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 23 from the north-east, heading 231.0 degrees at an altitude of 123 feet above ground level (agl) and a distance of 0 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was executed with a threshold speed that was well above the target speed of 94 knots.

The touchdown point was 145 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 72 knots and a touchdown rate of -28 feet per minute (fpm), which was considered perfect. The runway touchdown alignment was also perfect. At the time of landing, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 9 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 0 knots from a direction of 331 degrees, resulting in no crosswind or headwind.

The total landing distance was 893 meters, which accounted for 49% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect. The total flight distance was 8 nautical miles, with a total flight time of 6 minutes and a fuel consumption of -93 kilograms.
