What held you back

Arrival Landing — Threshold height at 95 ft agl was significantly above target at 12 %, −1.55 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown rate was -168 fpm at 84 %, Touchdown distance was 1,972 ft at 84 %, −0.41 points
Arrival Taxi — Landing Lights at 1 %, −0.38 points

Next time

Arrival

Fly a slightly steeper approach path to cross the threshold at 50 ft agl instead of 95 ft agl.

What happened: The aircraft crossed the threshold at 95 ft agl against a 50 ft agl target, above the normal profile. This fault pattern is often followed by a long touchdown beyond the target point, and here the aircraft touched down at 1,972 ft against a 1,500 ft target.

Watch for: Radio altimeter against the 50 ft threshold crossing target on short final.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

Even a modest height error carries straight through to the touchdown. Geometry alone says that crossing the threshold 10 feet high on a 3° path moves your touchdown roughly 190 feet further down the runway before the flare adds anything.

Speed and pitch

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

Rotated at 90 kt, on the 91 kt target, and lifted off at 93 kt 0.8 s later, the nose coming up at 5.9° a second. Climb 3 held close to its 110 kt target, at 107 kt on average.

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 984 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 8,465 ft of runway left; gear up at 29 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 1,360 fpm on average to 984 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 10,985 ft runway.

Rolled from 178 ft in, never more than 4 ft off the centreline. 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

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 0.3 nm, then not again: fast from 0.3 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 CYYJ 09

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

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

Inside the glideslope band from 4 nm to the threshold, never more than 40 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, 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.

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 44 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 26 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Inside the speed band from 4 nm to 0.3 nm, then fast to the threshold (up to +20 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 flare97.33

The flare tracked the target profile closely. The flare was flown from 95 ft agl over the threshold, well above the target height, so the aircraft was above the profile for most of the landing. Touchdown was 1,972 ft past the threshold. The flare cannot recover height that was never lost - fly the approach down to the aim point and the flare has somewhere to start from.

The crosswind

Little crosswind (1 kt): nothing to correct for. Touched down straight, 3° of bank.

Wind 250° at 3 kt · 2 kt tail · 1 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 80 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 29 s, an average deceleration of 0.09 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 5,189 ft of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 94 ft, 44 ft above the 50 ft target; began the flare at 36 ft. Touched down 1,972 ft in, 972 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 5,189 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 770 fpm at the flare to 170 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 1.6° 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.

How to read this

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

The aircraft taxied from the parking area to runway 10R at KPDX Portland International Airport, a movement that lasted 7 minutes and covered 2 nm.

Take-off was performed on runway 10R with a take-off roll of 1,837 ft, which is 17 % of the runway length. Rotation occurred at 90 kt. The local weather at departure was temperature 53 °F, wind 4 kt from 100°, with a 1 kt crosswind component and a 4 kt headwind component.

Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl took 40 seconds, averaging 1,167 fpm and reaching 121 kt at the top of the climb. The subsequent climb from 866 ft asl to 28,012 ft asl lasted 17 minutes, covering 57 nm while remaining overhead KPDX.

Cruise was maintained at 28,000 ft asl for 15 minutes, covering 73 nm, beginning 2 miles south-east of KTDO Ed Carlson Memorial Field.

Descent began at 27,532 ft asl and proceeded to 1,371 ft asl over 22 minutes, covering 89 nm. The descent started 5 miles west of Brinnon and included a brief level-off at 5,000 ft asl.

Final approach to runway 09 at CYYJ Victoria International Airport descended from 1,364 ft agl to 109 ft agl in 141 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 aircraft’s configuration was landing gear down at 2,152 ft agl with a speed of 105 kt, and final flap position 2 was selected at 884 ft agl with a speed of 116 kt.

Landing was made on runway 09, whose length is 6,960 ft. The threshold height at 95 ft agl was significantly above target, and the threshold speed was well above target at 97 kt. The flare was described as excellent, though the aircraft crossed the threshold high. Touchdown occurred 545 ft beyond the touchdown zone, at a speed of 79 kt and a rate of -168 fpm, both judged good. The touchdown point was slightly misaligned, 11 ft off the centreline. No bounce occurred.

Total landing distance was 4,788 ft, representing 69 % of the runway, and the rollout alignment was very good. Local weather at CYYJ was temperature 41 °F, wind 3 kt from 250°, with a 2 kt crosswind component and a 3 kt tailwind component.

After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a movement that took 4 minutes and covered less than 1 nm.

The flight covered a total distance of 227 nm in 67 minutes and consumed 496 lb of fuel.
