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 87 kt with 4.3° 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.

Side view from the start of the roll to the end of Climb 3 at 483 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 1,364 ft of runway left; then climbing at 730 fpm on average to 483 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 4,494 ft runway.

Rolled from 276 ft in, drifted left of the centreline, 8 ft at the widest, and lifted off 8 ft left. Airborne 52 % 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 approach to 24A 15

The final from 4 nm.

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

High from 1.0 nm, where the final began, to 0.4 nm (up to 500 ft over), then back on it to the threshold.

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.

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.

Inside the 1° band all the way from 1.0 nm, never more than 490 ft off the centreline.

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.

The crosswind

Little crosswind (1 kt): nothing to correct for. Touched down with the nose 1° right of the track, wings level.

Wind 249° at 1 kt · 0 kt tail · 1 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 73 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 17 s, an average deceleration of 0.14 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 2,996 ft of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 15 ft, 35 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 1,626 ft in, 626 ft past 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 2,996 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 370 fpm at 16 ft to 0 fpm at 4 ft, then back up to 240 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 3.6° 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.

How to read this

The runway from above, with your left at the top. Touching down inside the green bracket scores full marks for the distance. The shaded part is the rollout, up to where it ended. The arrow beside the runway is the crosswind, pointing the way the air was moving, so it pushed the aircraft that way.

The enroute climb started 1 mile southwest of CYCK Chatham-Kent, climbing from 1,136 ft asl to 9,410 ft asl in 7 minutes, covering 14 nm. The level cruise segment started 11 miles southeast of CRM5 Wheatly (Robinson Motorcycles) Airfield and lasted 121 minutes, covering 362 nm.

The enroute descent began 3 miles north of Parrottsville, descending from 9,631 ft asl to 7,657 ft asl in 4 minutes, covering 13 nm. Another level cruise segment followed, starting 7 miles south of Newport and lasting 1 minute, covering 2 nm. This was followed by a brief descent starting 9 miles south of Newport, descending from 7,614 ft asl to 7,422 ft asl in 1 minute, covering 2 nm.

This was followed by a short level cruise segment starting 4 miles west of Maggie Valley and lasting 1 minute, covering 4 nm. The final descent of the flight started 5 miles north of Sylva, descending from 7,392 ft asl to 4,237 ft asl in 3 minutes, covering 8 nm.

The landing took place on runway 15 at 24A Jackson County, with a runway length of 2,996 ft. The height at the threshold was 16 ft agl, with a speed at threshold of 85 kn. The touchdown occurred 1,623 ft from the threshold, with a touchdown speed of 68 kn and a VSI of -240 ft/m. The local weather at the time of landing was 73 °F, with a wind of 1 kn at 249° resulting in a crosswind of 1 kn and a headwind of 0 kn. The total landing distance was 2,799 ft, which was 93% of the runway length.

Taxiing to the parking area from the runway took less than 1 minute and covered less than 1 nm. The total flight distance was 420 nm, taking 156 minutes, and using 280 lbs of fuel.
