Speed and pitch

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

Lifted off at 78 kt with 10.9° 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. 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 941 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 3,293 ft of runway left; then climbing at 2,210 fpm on average to 941 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 shaded stretch is Climb 3, scored on its average speed against the target.

Plan view the roll down the 5,004 ft runway.

Rolled from 118 ft in, never more than 4 ft off the centreline. Airborne 19 % 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 approach to KSUS 08R

The final from 4 nm.

Profile height against the 3° glideslope, with its 1° band in green.

High from 3.3 nm, where the final began, to 2.6 nm (up to 470 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.

Plan distance off the extended centreline, your left at the top, with the 1° band. Sideways distances are drawn 3× larger than distances along the final.

Joined 6,720 ft right of the centreline at 3.3 nm, then inside the band from 1.0 nm to the threshold.

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 32 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 18 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Fast from 3.3 nm, where the final began, to the threshold (up to +91 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

Calm: nothing to correct for. Touched down straight, wings level.

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 5,000 ft of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 23 ft, 27 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 773 ft in, 227 ft short of 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 540 fpm at 24 ft to 200 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 4.1° 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.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 8 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Horten Ho229, then departed from runway 23 at KSFZ North Central State Airport. The takeoff distance was 994 feet, which accounted for 20% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 78 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 87 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 3 knots from a direction of 123 degrees. There was a slight crosswind of 3 knots, but no headwind. As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead KSFZ North Central State Airport in Pawtucket, Rhode Island. The aircraft climbed from an altitude of 1,443 feet above sea level to 39,340 feet, an increase of 37,897 feet, in 12 minutes and covered a distance of 79 nautical miles.

The enroute level cruise phase of the flight began overhead CT44 Ripley Field in Litchfield, Connecticut, and lasted for 92 minutes. During this period, the aircraft covered a distance of 799 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 2 miles southeast of KSET St Charles County Regional Airport/Smartt Field in St Charles, Missouri. The descent took 13 minutes and covered a distance of 20 nautical miles, during which the aircraft decreased its altitude from 39,359 feet to 950 feet.

The final approach to runway 08R at KSUS Spirit of St Louis Airport was made from the west, with the aircraft heading 75.0 degrees at an altitude of 485 feet above ground level and 1 nautical mile from the runway. The landing was made on the runway, which had a length of 6,991 feet. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was well above the target speed of 87 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 768 feet, and the touchdown speed was 76 knots, which was also good. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -204 feet per minute.

The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 75 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 71 degrees. There was no crosswind, but a headwind of 1 knot. The total landing distance was 1,771 feet, which accounted for 25% of the runway. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

The total flight distance was 902 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 123 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 2,172 pounds of fuel during the flight.
