Next time

Arrival

Reduce power earlier on final to bring speed back to 135 kt by the threshold.

What happened: The aircraft crossed the threshold at 146 kt against a target of 135 kt, and the flare that followed strayed from its usual profile; this combination usually carries through to a firm touchdown.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 135 kt at the threshold

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 146 kt, on the 145 kt target, and lifted off at 156 kt 4.5 s later, the nose coming up at 1.6° a second. Climb 3 held close to its 179 kt target, at 177 kt on average.

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 826 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 2,982 ft of runway left; gear up at 110 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 2,050 fpm on average to 826 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 10,011 ft runway.

Rolled from 237 ft in, drifted left of the centreline, 17 ft at the widest, and lifted off 9 ft left. Airborne 56 % 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 4 nm to 0.5 nm, then not again: low 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 approach to KPHL 27R

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 4 nm to 0.5 nm, then low to the threshold (up to 70 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, 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.

Plan distance off the extended centreline, your left at the top, with the 1° band. Sideways distances are drawn 39× larger than distances along the final.

Inside the 1° band all the way from 4 nm, never more than 30 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.

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 +8 kt and +12 kt on the approach speed of 135 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.

The flare78.55

The flare wandered off the target profile. Crossing the threshold 11 kt above target, the flare began at 10 ft agl above the runway, lower than this aircraft wants. Touchdown was 1,298 ft past the threshold. Begin raising the nose earlier - a late flare leaves no time to arrest the sink.

The crosswind

Little crosswind (1 kt): nothing to correct for. Touched down straight, wings level.

Wind 244° at 7 kt · 7 kt head · 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 138 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 19 s, an average deceleration of 0.30 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 36 ft, 14 ft below the 50 ft target; began the flare late, at 10 ft. Touched down 1,298 ft in, 298 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 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 380 fpm at the flare to 290 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.

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.

Flight narrative

The Boeing 737-800 departed Orlando International Airport (KMCO) on runway 35L. The take-off roll was 5,685 ft, using 57 % of the runway, and rotation occurred at 146 kt. Local weather was 74 °F with a 3 kt wind from 354°, no cross-wind and a 3 kt head-wind.

Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl took 22 seconds at an average rate of 1,943 fpm, reaching 175 kt at the top of the climb. The aircraft then climbed from 1,010 ft asl to 39,010 ft asl in 22 minutes, covering 140 nm, beginning about 1 nm north-east of KMCO.

Cruise was maintained at 39,000 ft asl for 72 minutes, covering 546 nm, with the segment starting roughly 4 nm south-east of GA20 Stafford Airport (Saint Marys).

Descent began from 38,999 ft asl and proceeded to 1,330 ft asl in 28 minutes over 132 nm, starting 1 nm south of Snow Hill, with a brief level-off at 2,100 ft asl.

Final approach to runway 27R at Philadelphia International Airport (KPHL) started from 1,351 ft agl and descended to 59 ft agl in 107 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway were all met: gear down, landing flap, sink rate, glideslope, centreline, speed, and wings level. Configuration on final was gear down at 4,186 ft agl at 180 kt, and final flap position 8 at 3,786 ft agl at 160 kt.

The aircraft touched down on runway 27R. Threshold speed was slightly above target at 146 kt. Flare was described as very good with little round-out. Touchdown occurred 1,331 ft down the runway at 144 kt, with a rate of -277 fpm. The touchdown point was 11 ft off the centreline but otherwise well aligned. No bounce occurred. Total landing distance was 3,413 ft, 36 % of the runway, and rollout alignment was very good.

After landing, taxi to the parking area took 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nm. The overall flight covered 826 nm in 138 minutes and consumed 12,278 lb of fuel.
