Next time

Departure

Lower the nose and add power to raise climb speed to 117 kt.

What happened: Climb speed was 104 kt against a target of 117 kt, running 13 kt slow through the climb.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator against the climb target of 117 kt.

See Departure Climb 3

Arrival

Keep the back pressure coming once the flare is established, holding the nose up through to touchdown instead of easing it.

What happened: The flare arrested the sink but 246 fpm of it came back before touchdown, and in flights like this one that returning sink usually carries through to a firm or hard touchdown at 234 fpm.

Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: the sink held near zero all the way through touchdown, not allowed to build back up.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

Speed and pitch

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

Rotated at 92 kt, on the 93 kt target, and lifted off at 94 kt 3.0 s later, the nose coming up at 1.3° a second. Climb 3 averaged 104 kt, 13 kt under its 117 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 655 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 5,497 ft of runway left; gear up at 76 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 980 fpm on average to 655 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 9,004 ft runway.

Rolled from the start of the runway, never more than 3 ft off the centreline, in 6 kn of crosswind from the right. Airborne 28 % 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 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out. These checks are the approach's score.

At the 500 ft gate: sink rate more than 600 fpm beyond what the glideslope needed, glideslope more than 2° off the runway's 3° and centreline more than 1° off.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 0.3 nm, about 140 ft above the runway, to the threshold, after the 500 ft gate. The last to settle was the centreline.

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 final from 4 nm, with the stabilisation gates on it.

Profile height against the 3° glideslope, with its 2° band in green.

On the glideslope from 3.9 nm, where the final began, to 2.7 nm, then high to 1.5 nm (up to 820 ft over), then back on it to the threshold.

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 4× larger than distances along the final.

Outside the 1° band twice; furthest 280 ft left at 1.8 nm.

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 45 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 27 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Fast from 3.9 nm, where the final began, to 2.3 nm (up to +46 kt), then inside the band to the threshold.

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 flare93.00

The flare held the target profile well. The flare was pumped rather than held: pitch changed direction 5 times on the way down. Touchdown was 2,354 ft past the threshold. One smooth continuous input - chasing the runway with the elevator makes the next correction bigger, not smaller.

The crosswind

7 kt across from the left, which takes about 6° of crab to hold the centreline at 70 kt. Touched down with the nose 1° right of the track, away from the wind, wings level.

Wind 190° at 7 kt · 1 kt head · 7 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 74 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 20 s, an average deceleration of 0.13 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 51 ft, close to the 50 ft target; began the flare at 31 ft. Touched down 2,354 ft in, 1,354 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 440 fpm at the flare to 230 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 3.6° 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.

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

Departing from KELP El Paso International Airport, the Vision Jet taxied from the parking area to runway 08R in 10 minutes, covering 1 nm. The takeoff roll measured 2,663 ft, representing 30 % of the available runway, and the aircraft achieved liftoff speed of 95 kt. Local conditions were 93 °F with a 18 kt wind from 119°, producing an 8 kt crosswind and a 16 kt headwind.

The flight profile included a climb from 4,596 ft to 29,961 ft over 25 minutes, covering 88 nm, followed by a 62-minute cruise segment of 333 nm. Descent phases began 7 mi northwest of 73AZ Dunton Ranch Airport, dropping 20,672 ft in 16 minutes over 73 nm, and continued through a series of short level cruises and descents near Boulder City, Nevada, ultimately reaching 4,093 ft after a 3-minute descent covering 10 nm. The final approach to runway 26L at KLAS Harry Reid International Airport commenced from the east at 268.0°, 2 nm out and 1,548 ft AGL, with a touchdown speed of 70 kt and a touchdown rate of -114 fpm. The touchdown point lay 935 ft beyond the touchdown zone, and the landing distance totaled 4,141 ft, 39 % of the runway length.

After touchdown, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 13 minutes, covering 1 nm. The entire flight spanned 537 nm, lasted 126 minutes, and consumed 808 lbs of fuel. The approach and landing were conducted under 98 °F with a 5 kt wind from 190°, yielding a 5 kt crosswind and a 1 kt headwind.
