Know your rotation speed

See Departure Roll

A typical trainer rotates in the mid-50s of knots - a 172 at around 55 KIAS, climbing out at a Vy in the low 70s, though check your own POH rather than memorising Cessna's numbers - and the transferable rule is that Vr sits just above the stall speed in takeoff configuration. Rotate early because "it felt ready" and the aircraft lifts off inside ground effect, where induced drag is reduced, then climbs out of it into more drag. On a marginal-performance day the result is an aircraft that lifts off and then refuses to climb, sagging back towards the runway.

Speed and pitch

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

Lifted off at 63 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.

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.

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.

Wings level

At the 500 ft gate: centreline more than 1° off and speed more than 21 kt above the approach speed of 140 kt.

When the approach was stable

Never every check met at once: gear up until 2.2 nm, fast until 1.1 nm, sinking too fast until 0.9 nm, banked until 0.8 nm, low from 0.8 nm, no landing flap from 0.7 nm and right of the centreline from 0.5 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 final from 4 nm, with the stabilisation gates on it.

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

On the glideslope from 3.1 nm, where the final began, to 0.8 nm, then low to the threshold (up to 110 ft under).

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.

Speed against the approach speed. The green band runs from 5 kt slow to 35 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 21 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Fast from 3.1 nm, where the final began, to 1.1 nm (up to +49 kt), then inside the band to the threshold.

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 crosswind

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

Wind 269° at 1 kt · 1 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 141 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 27 s, an average deceleration of 0.22 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.

Crossed the threshold at 47 ft, close to the 50 ft target. Touched down 527 m in, 222 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 500 fpm at 46 ft to 270 fpm at 17 ft, then back up to 420 fpm at touchdown. The pitch barely changed.

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 Avro Vulcan B2 took off from runway 22 at RAF Scampton, EGXP, with a takeoff distance of 148 meters, which is 5% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 64 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot at 270 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind.

As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb 1 mile north of Burton, Lincolnshire, and reached an altitude of 1,427 feet above sea level, increasing by 238 feet in just 1 minute while covering 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 1 mile west of Burton, descending from 1,414 feet to 395 feet in 2 minutes, covering 6 nautical miles.

The aircraft continued its flight, starting its enroute level cruise 2 miles south east of South Leverton, Nottinghamshire, and lasting for 2 minutes while covering 7 nautical miles. It then began another enroute climb overhead Babworth, Nottinghamshire, increasing its altitude from 594 feet to 1,627 feet in 2 minutes while covering 7 nautical miles.

The aircraft continued its flight, starting its enroute level cruise overhead EGNF Netherthorpe Airfield Worksop, Nottinghamshire, and lasting for 2 minutes while covering 8 nautical miles. It then began another enroute climb 1 mile north east of EGCA Coal Aston Airfield Dronfield, Derbyshire, increasing its altitude from 1,373 feet to 2,592 feet in 2 minutes while covering 7 nautical miles.

The aircraft then began its enroute descent 2 miles east of Hathersage, Derbyshire, descending from 2,599 feet to 1,278 feet in 2 minutes while covering 7 nautical miles. It then started its enroute level cruise 1 mile west of Hope, Derbyshire, and lasted for 4 minutes while covering 16 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 23R at EGCC Manchester Airport was made from the north east, heading 208.0 degrees at 2 nautical miles and 774 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown point 116 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 141 knots, which was good, and the touchdown rate was firm at -384 feet per minute.

The total landing distance was 1,288 meters, which is 53% of the runway. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing to the parking from the runway took 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile.

The total flight distance was 65 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 18 minutes. The aircraft used a total of -5,631 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
