Next time

Departure

Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.

What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 5 m off the runway centreline.

Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.

See Departure Roll

A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

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

Lifted off at 61 kt with 2.3° 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.

Reached 35 ft with 867 m of runway left; then climbing at 700 fpm on average to 531 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.

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 circuit to LFLX 21

Left-hand, 1,000 ft circuit height. The plan shows your circuit over a textbook one for this runway; the profile unrolls the same path from liftoff to the threshold.

Plan landing direction to the left; in pale blue the textbook circuit for your downwind speed, 1 nm out at 105 kt

How to read this

The lap from above, with the landing direction to the left: the opposite of the runway drawings. The wide pale-blue line is a textbook circuit for your downwind speed - the downwind a mile out for every 100 kt, every turn at 30° of bank - and your track is drawn over it, each leg in the colour of its mark. The numbers are the four turns, the same as on the profile and the cards below. The 45° line from the threshold is the usual point to turn onto base.

Around the circuit height and bank; the turns are shaded

How to read this

The same lap straightened out, so the height and the bank can be read together. Each shaded stretch is a turn, numbered as on the plan. The green box is circuit height, 1,000 ft, on the downwind. The amber line is 30° of bank, and a turn's steepest bank shows red above 32°. "Turn crosswind from" is the lowest height to start the first turn at.

Rough: the G force varied more than a smooth turn and leg would.

The metric that matters across a circuit session is scatter, not score. Five landings at 180 to 220 fpm is better flying than one 90 fpm greaser sitting among four 400 fpm arrivals, because consistency is what professional flight-data monitoring actually looks for, and consistency only exists across many flights.

Late: turned base with the threshold 20° behind, against 45°.

The stopwatch. From abeam the threshold, fly roughly 30 to 45 seconds before turning base, in nil wind at 172 speeds. Treat that as a starting value and calibrate it. If your finals keep coming out at 400 ft instead of 500, add a few seconds. Then adjust for wind, roughly a second per knot of headwind on final (a headwind on final is a tailwind on downwind, carrying you further from the field per second).

The approach to LFLX 21

The final from 4 nm.

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

Inside the glideslope band from 0.9 nm, where the final began, to the threshold, never more than 220 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.

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 199 m left of the centreline at 0.9 nm, then inside the band from 0.5 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 26 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 16 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Fast from 0.9 nm, where the final began, to the threshold (up to +50 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 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 45 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 15 s, an average deceleration of 0.05 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.

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 380 fpm at 60 ft to 120 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 4.9° 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 flight began with the aircraft, a Sting S4, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at LFLX Châteauroux-Déols "Marcel Dassault" Airport. This process took approximately 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 21, with a takeoff distance of 179 meters, which accounted for 5% of the runway's length. The liftoff speed was 62 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 25 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 272 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 1 knot. The aircraft entered a left-hand pattern from runway 21, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile in 67 seconds.

As the aircraft continued its pattern, it encountered a crosswind from runway 21, which it navigated in 59 seconds, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The pattern then involved a downwind turn, with the aircraft covering a distance of 2 nautical miles at an angle of 57.1 degrees to the runway. The downwind leg itself was 2 nautical miles long and took 54 seconds to complete.

The aircraft then began its base leg turn, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile at an angle of 19.9 degrees to the runway. The final approach to runway 21 was made from the north-east, with the aircraft heading 213.0 degrees at an altitude of 176 feet above ground level (agl) and a distance of 0 nautical miles from the runway.

The landing on runway 21 was successful, with the aircraft touching down at a distance of 356 meters from the threshold. However, the touchdown speed was slightly high at 41 knots, and the touchdown rate was excellent at -85 feet per minute (fpm). The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 5.1 meters.

The total landing distance was 608 meters, which accounted for 17% of the runway's length. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned from the centreline by 7.8 meters. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in less than 1 minute.

In total, the flight covered a distance of 11 nautical miles and took approximately 9 minutes to complete, using 2 kilograms of fuel in the process.
