Speed and pitch

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

Lifted off at 97 kt with 6.8° of pitch. Climb 3 averaged 206 kt, 45 kt over its 161 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 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 1,898 ft. The distance scale changes past the runway end.

Reached 35 ft with 191 m of runway left; gear up at 57 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 860 fpm on average to 1,898 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 1,209 m runway.

Rolled from 388 m in, drifted left of the centreline, 17 m at the widest, and lifted off 15 m left, in 5 kn of crosswind from the right. Airborne 72 % 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: centreline more than 1° off and speed more than 14 kt above the approach speed of 93 kt.

When the approach was stable

Never every check met at once: fast until 1.1 nm, left of the centreline from 2.1 nm and banked 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 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 290 ft below 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.

Joined 383 m right of the centreline, then inside it from 2.4 to 2.1 nm, then 598 m left of it from 2.1 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 23 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 14 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Fast from 4 nm to 1.1 nm (up to +33 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.

Perfect landing flare

The crosswind

Little crosswind (1 kt): nothing to correct for. Touched down with the nose 2° left of the track, 4° of bank.

Wind 270° at 6 kt · 6 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 102 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 24 s, an average deceleration of 0.16 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.

Began the flare at 32 ft, 31 m before the threshold; crossed the threshold at 22 ft, 28 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 221 m in, 84 m short of 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 1,232 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 1,070 fpm at the flare to 300 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 3.2° 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.

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

Departing from Sparwood Elk Valley Airport (CYSW), the OV-10 Bronco began its journey with a departure roll on runway 17. The aircraft accelerated to a liftoff speed of 98 kt, covering a takeoff distance of 880 m, which accounted for 73% of the runway length. The local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 16 °C and a wind speed of 6 kt from 270°, resulting in a negligible headwind component.

As the aircraft transitioned into the enroute phase, it began a series of climbs and descents, navigating through various altitudes and airspaces. Notably, the aircraft climbed from 5,758 ft asl to 8,456 ft asl, an increase of 2,107 ft, in 2 minutes and covering 6 nm. The enroute level cruise phase was interspersed with these climbs and descents, with the aircraft maintaining a steady altitude for periods of up to 3 minutes. The total flight distance covered was 129 nm, with the aircraft using 188 kg of fuel throughout the journey.

The final approach to runway 06 at Starr-Browning Airport (8S0) was initiated from the west, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 73.0° at 4 nm and 1,044 ft agl. The landing was executed with a threshold speed slightly above the target at 95 kt, and the touchdown distance was good at 227 m. The touchdown speed was 88 kt, and the touchdown rate was firm at -370 fpm. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 9.3 m from the centreline, and the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 9.2 m from the centreline.
