Next time

Departure

Reduce climb power to bring speed back to 170 kt and hold it there.

What happened: Climb speed was 73 kt fast at 243 kt during the climb.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 170 kt in the climb

See Departure Climb 3

Arrival

Begin the flare with progressive back pressure and keep it coming until the sink is arrested, rather than flying it on flat.

What happened: The nose was barely raised in the flare and little of the sink was taken out, flying the aircraft onto the runway. This pattern usually carries through to a firm touchdown with a noticeable sink rate.

Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: a smoothly reducing sink through the normal flare band, not a steady rate into the runway.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

Speed at this height is usually bought with gradient. It's rarely dangerous and it's often just an early acceleration, but with flaps still out you may be heading towards the flap limit and a flat fast climb puts you at the acceleration altitude with the cleaning-up still to do.

Speed and pitch

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

Rotated at 138 kt, 7 kt below the 145 kt target, and lifted off at 153 kt 3.0 s later, the nose coming up at 2.4° a second. Climb 3 averaged 243 kt, 73 kt over its 170 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.

Side view from the start of the roll to the end of Climb 3 at 895 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 2,194 m of runway left; gear up at 124 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 1,300 fpm on average to 895 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.

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 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 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 LIRF 16L

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 80 ft above 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.

Speed against the approach speed. The green band runs from 5 kt slow to 36 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 22 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Inside the speed band all the way, between +7 kt and +14 kt on the approach speed of 145 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 flare74.44

The flare wandered off the target profile. The aircraft was flown onto the runway - pitch changed 0.6° and the descent was barely arrested. Touchdown was 289 m past the threshold. Start the flare with progressive back pressure rather than one pull, and keep it coming.

The crosswind

No crosswind: nothing to correct for. Touched down straight, 2° of bank.

Wind 270° at 1 kt · 0 kt tail · 0 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 150 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 23 s, an average deceleration of 0.27 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 47 ft, close to the 50 ft target; began the flare at 28 ft. Touched down 289 m in, close to 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 went from 910 fpm at the flare to 530 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 0.5° on the way down.

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 Airbus A320neo departed from runway 09R at LFPG Charles de Gaulle International Airport. Rotation was achieved at 138 kt and the take-off run was 1,495 m (36 % of runway). Local weather was 18 °C with wind 1 kt from 270°, crosswind 0 kt and tailwind 1 kt.

Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl took 39 seconds, averaging 1,222 fpm and reaching 248 kt at the top of the segment. The aircraft then climbed from 1,325 ft asl to 32,334 ft asl in 9 minutes, covering 54 nm while passing overhead Le Mesnil-Amelot.

Cruise was maintained at 25,000 ft asl for 73 minutes, covering 528 nm, beginning about 1 mile north of Saint-Germain-des-Prés. Descent began from 32,948 ft asl to 25,019 ft asl in 5 minutes over 34 nm, starting overhead Dammarie-les-Lys. A further descent from 24,086 ft asl to 1,389 ft asl took 14 minutes and covered 71 nm, beginning 3 miles south-east of Montalto di Castro.

Final approach to runway 16L at LIRF Rome-Fiumicino Leonardo da Vinci International Airport started from 1,423 ft agl and descended to 84 ft agl in 89 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. The landing gear was lowered at 2,247 ft agl at 266 kt; final flap position 3 was selected at 2,351 ft agl at 210 kt.

Touchdown occurred on runway 16L, whose length is 3,890 m. The threshold height was good and the threshold speed was 152 kt. The flare was described as good, with little round-out. Touchdown distance was 288 m, speed was 150 kt (a little fast), and the vertical rate was very hard at minus 533 fpm. The touchdown point was slightly off centreline by 3.1 m but there was no bounce. Total landing distance was 960 m (25 % of runway) and rollout alignment was perfect.

Local weather at landing was 15 °C with wind 1 kt from 270°, crosswind 1 kt and headwind 0 kt. Taxi from the runway to parking took 12 minutes and covered 3 nm.

The flight covered 696 nm in 118 minutes and used 2,270 kg of fuel.
