A crosswind landing is a geometry problem. The air mass you're flying in is moving sideways across the runway, and you need your ground track down the centreline with your wheels aligned to it at the moment of contact. There are two techniques that will help, the crab and the sideslip.

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 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.

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.

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.

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 crosswind

8 kt across from the left, which takes about 7° of crab to hold the centreline at 66 kt. Touched down with 6° of it still on, wings level.

Wind 011° at 10 kt · 6 kt tail · 8 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.

Side view — the last 917 m of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 49 ft, close to the 50 ft target. Touched down 531 m in, 226 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 917 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.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 08 at LSGK Saanen Airfield, a Beechcraft Baron G58 aircraft taking to the skies. The takeoff distance covered 681 meters, which was 88% of the available runway. The liftoff speed was achieved at 118 knots, marking the start of the aircraft's ascent.

As the aircraft climbed, it encountered local weather conditions of 16°C temperature and a wind speed of 10 knots at 10°. The crosswind component was 9 knots, while the headwind component was 4 knots. The enroute climb started overhead Saanen, with the aircraft rising from 3,933 feet above sea level to 4,654 feet, an increase of 721 feet in just 1 minute, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile.

The enroute descent began 2 miles northeast of Saanen, with the aircraft descending from 4,666 feet to 3,426 feet, a decrease of 1,241 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 14 at LSTS Sankt Stephan Airfield was initiated from the northwest, with the aircraft heading 121.0° at 1 nautical mile and 119 feet above ground level.

The landing on runway 14 was executed with a threshold speed that was slightly below the target at 66 knots. The touchdown point was very long, using more than 50% of the available runway. The touchdown speed was good at 66 knots, but the touchdown rate was fair at -234 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.2 meters from the centerline.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 15°C temperature and a wind speed of 10 knots at 10°, with a crosswind component of 8 knots and a tailwind component of 6 knots. The total landing distance was 1,062 meters, which was 116% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 21.6 meters from the centerline.

After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area from the runway, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 1 minute. The total flight distance was 8 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 8 minutes. The aircraft used 4 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
