Maintain the centreline

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.

Lifted off at 90 kt with 6.3° 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.

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.

Rolled from 551 ft in, drifted 15 ft left of the centreline and was back on it to lift off, in 8 kn of crosswind from the left. Airborne 33 % 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 final from 4 nm.

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

Inside the glideslope band from 0.6 nm, where the final began, to the threshold, never more than 80 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.

Inside the 1° band all the way from 0.6 nm, never more than 390 ft off the centreline.

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 78 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 48 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Fast from 0.6 nm, where the final began, to the threshold (up to +33 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

7 kt across from the left, which takes about 6° of crab to hold the centreline at 67 kt. Touched down with 2° of it still on, wings level.

Wind 323° at 8 kt · 2 kt tail · 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.

Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 21 ft, 29 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 1,729 ft in, 729 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 300 fpm at 19 ft to 100 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 10.1° 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.

Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 5,632 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.

Touched down 6 ft right of the centreline, and stayed within 10 ft of it down the rollout.

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 flight began with the Spitfire Mk IX taxiing from the parking area to the runway at KLCI Laconia Municipal Airport. This process took approximately 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then proceeded to depart from runway 08, with a takeoff distance of 1,509 feet, which accounted for 27% of the runway's length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 90 knots.

As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 89 °F and a wind speed of 12 knots at 322 °. The crosswind was 11 knots, while the tailwind was 3 knots. The Spitfire then entered a left-hand pattern from runway 08, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in just 25 seconds. The subsequent left-hand pattern crosswind leg was completed in 11 seconds, with the aircraft maintaining a steady course.

The pattern continued with a downwind turn, which covered a distance of 1 nautical mile at an angle of 45 degrees to the runway, with a bank angle of 15.7 °. The downwind leg itself was 2 nautical miles long and took 27 seconds to complete. The base leg turn, which covered a distance of 1 nautical mile, had an angle of 45 degrees to the runway, with a bank angle of 34.8 °.

The final approach to runway 08 was made from the west, with the aircraft heading 84.0 ° at an altitude of 1 nautical mile and 358 feet above ground level. However, the pilot decided to execute a go-around at an altitude of 0 feet above ground level. The landing was eventually made on runway 08, which had a length of 5,632 feet. The threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was excessively high at 98 knots.

The touchdown point was 641 feet beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 66 knots, which was considered good. The touchdown rate was excellent at -100 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 88 °F and a wind speed of 8 knots at 322 °, with a crosswind of 7 knots and a tailwind of 2 knots.

The total landing distance was 2,687 feet, which accounted for 48% of the runway's length. The runway rollout alignment was also very good. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking approximately 2 minutes and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 6 nautical miles, which was completed in 8 minutes, and the aircraft used -1 pound of fuel during the flight.
