What went well

Landed straight in a 14 kn crosswind — 0.63 m off the centreline, no bounce
Held the centreline on the roll in a 14 kn crosswind — 3.59 m off at liftoff
Touched down at -113 fpm — a soft arrival

What held you back

Departure Climb 2 — Heading variation 1.2 ° at 57 %, bank angle up to 13.5 ° at 70 %, −1.52 points

Next time

Departure

Use small, coordinated rudder and aileron inputs to hold your assigned climb heading as soon as drift begins.

What happened: During the second climb segment, you let the aircraft drift off the assigned heading.

Watch for: Heading indicator: steady on the assigned climb heading

See Departure Climb 2

Arrival

Reduce power earlier on final to bleed speed back to 69 kt before crossing the threshold.

What happened: You crossed the threshold at 79 kt, 10 kt above the 69 kt target.

Watch for: Airspeed, targeting 69 kt at the threshold.

See Arrival Landing

A good takeoff has a defined shape. It also has a defined end. For an airliner that's thrust reduction and acceleration, commonly somewhere around 1,000 to 1,500 ft above the airfield depending on the operator, while for a light aircraft it's established at Vy with the flaps on schedule. Most simmers have no defined end to their takeoff, which is exactly why it never gets judged.

Speed and pitch

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

Lifted off at 64 kt with 4.1° 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.

Reached 35 ft with 1,206 m of runway left; then climbing at 480 fpm on average to 254 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.

Rolled from 53 m in, drifted left of the centreline, 3.6 m at the widest, and lifted off 3 m left, in 14 kn of crosswind from the left. Airborne 16 % 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

One stabilised approach gate: seven checks where the approach path is 300 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.

At the 300 ft gate: centreline more than 1° off and wings more than 10° from level.

When the approach was stable

Never every check met at once: left of the centreline all the way and fast all the way.

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.

Inside the glideslope band from 1.0 nm, where the final began, to the threshold, never more than 200 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.

Fast from 1.0 nm, where the final began, to the threshold (up to +31 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 crosswind

14 kt across from the right, which takes about 13° of crab to hold the centreline at 63 kt. Touched down with 7° of it still on, 2° of bank.

Wind 320° at 15 kt · 0 kt tail · 14 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 69 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 18 s, an average deceleration of 0.12 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.

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.

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 flight began with a quick taxiing period from the parking area to the runway, taking less than a minute and covering a distance of less than a nautical mile. The aircraft, a Carenado CT182T, then departed from runway 05 at EGPE Inverness Airport. The takeoff distance was 279 meters, which accounted for 15% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 64 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 15 knots from a direction of 320 degrees.

Following the departure, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which began overhead EGPE Inverness Airport and lasted for 2 minutes. During this time, the aircraft covered a distance of less than a nautical mile. The cruise phase was a brief one, and the aircraft soon began its descent for landing.

The final approach to runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport was initiated from the north-east, with the aircraft heading in a direction of 231.0 degrees at an altitude of 85 feet above ground level and a distance of 0 nautical miles from the runway. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 2 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 11 knots from a direction of 217 degrees.

The landing itself was smooth, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 63 knots. The touchdown distance was 364 meters, which was considered good, and the touchdown rate was an excellent -88 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was very good.

The total landing distance was 799 meters, which accounted for 44% of the runway. The aircraft used no fuel during the flight, and the total flight distance was 2 nautical miles, taking a total of 3 minutes to complete.
