Next time

Departure

Raise the gear lever promptly once a positive rate of climb is confirmed after liftoff.

What happened: The landing gear was never raised during the initial climb and was still down when the climb ended.

Watch for: Landing gear lever: UP promptly after confirming a positive rate of climb.

See Departure Climb 3

Arrival

Close the throttles earlier on final so you cross the threshold at 130 kt rather than carrying excess speed.

What happened: The aircraft crossed the threshold at 146 kt, 16 kt above the 130 kt target, and the nose was then only raised 1.4° in the flare, taking out little of the sink. Crossing the threshold fast like this usually carries extra energy into a flare that barely arrests the sink, and that combination usually ends in a firm touchdown.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 130 kt at the threshold.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

Make sure that you retract the landing gear once you have a positive rate of climb and there is no usable runway left to land back on.

Speed and pitch

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

Rotated at 143 kt, on the 143 kt target, and lifted off at 151 kt 1.7 s later, the nose coming up at 3.6° a second. Climb 3 averaged 188 kt, 14 kt over its 174 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.

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.

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.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 4 nm to 0.4 nm, then not again: left of the centreline from 0.4 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 NZAA 23L

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, 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.

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 flare56.64

The flare strayed well off the target profile. The aircraft was flown onto the runway - pitch changed 1.4° and the descent was barely arrested. Touchdown was 440 m past the threshold. Start the flare with progressive back pressure rather than one pull, and keep it coming.

The crosswind

5 kt across from the left, which takes about 2° of crab to hold the centreline at 138 kt. Touched down with the nose 14° into wind, wings level.

Wind 240° at 28 kt · 28 kt head · 5 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 113 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 19 s, an average deceleration of 0.23 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 59 ft, close to the 50 ft target; began the flare late, at 11 ft. Touched down 440 m in, 135 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 stayed between 370 fpm and 410 fpm from the flare to the runway. The nose came up 1.4° 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.

Flight narrative

The Airbus A321neo departed from runway 23L at NZAA Auckland International Airport. Take-off was achieved after a distance of 708 m, which was 19 % of the runway. Rotation occurred at 143 kt. Local weather at departure was 16 °C with wind 29 kt from 240°, giving a 5 kt cross-wind and a 28 kt head-wind.

Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl took 23 seconds, averaging 1,929 fpm and reaching 205 kt at the top of the climb. The aircraft then climbed from 980 ft asl to 1,560 ft asl in 1 minute while covering 2 nm, remaining overhead Auckland.

Level flight was maintained at 1,500 ft asl for 5 minutes, covering 15 nm, beginning 2 nm south-west of NZAA.

During final approach to runway 23L, descent was from 1,376 ft agl to 86 ft agl in 122 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.

Landing was on runway 23L, whose length is 3,671 m. The threshold height at 59 ft agl was slightly above target and the threshold speed was well above target at 146 kt. The flare was poor, with little round-out. Touchdown occurred 440 m from the threshold at a speed of 138 kt, a little fast, and with a firm rate of minus 376 fpm. The touchdown point was misaligned by 12.9 m from the centreline. No bounce occurred. Total landing distance was 739 m, 20 % of the runway, and rollout alignment was perfect.

Taxiing from the runway to parking took less than 1 minute and covered less than 1 nm. The flight covered 22 nm in 9 minutes and used 1,162 kg of fuel. Local weather at landing was 18 °C with wind 28 kt from 240°, giving a 5 kt cross-wind and a 28 kt head-wind.
