What went well

Touched down at -143 fpm — a soft arrival
Touchdown 442 m in — inside the full-score zone
Straight touchdown — 2.66 m off the centreline, no bounce

What held you back

Enroute Descent — 250 kt exceeded below 10,000 ft; speed limits at 93 %, −0.30 points
Arrival Landing — scored 98.57 %, −0.10 points

Next time

Slow the descent speed

See Enroute Descent

Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering it.

Speed and pitch

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

Lifted off at 140 kt with 8.6° of pitch. Climb 3 averaged 168 kt, 10 kt over its 158 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 795 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 1,210 m of runway left; gear up at 49 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 1,480 fpm on average to 795 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.

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 3.7 nm, about 1,210 ft above the runway, to the threshold, before the 1,000 ft gate, so through both gates. The last to settle was the speed.

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 KATL 27L

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 30 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.

Plan distance off the extended centreline, your left at the top, with the 1° band. Sideways distances are drawn 28× larger than distances along the final.

Inside the 1° band all the way from 4 nm, never more than 13 m 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 30 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 18 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Fast from 4 nm to 3.7 nm (up to +36 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.

The flare97.95

Excellent landing flare. It lost 2.1 points, for touching down 7.5° above the aircraft's ground attitude.

The crosswind

3 kt across from the left, which takes about 2° of crab to hold the centreline at 101 kt. Touched down with 2° of it still on, wings level.

Wind 200° at 4 kt · 1 kt head · 3 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 105 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 40 s, an average deceleration of 0.10 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 1,524 m of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 45 ft, close to the 50 ft target; began the flare at 24 ft. Touched down 442 m in, 137 m past 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 1,524 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 610 fpm at the flare to 140 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 2.1° 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 1,524 m of the 2,739 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.

Touched down 2.7 m right of the centreline, and stayed about there down the rollout, 3.1 m right at the widest.

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 Orlando International Airport, the RJ85 aircraft began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 9 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. Upon reaching runway 35L, the aircraft initiated its departure roll, accelerating down the 1,591-meter stretch of the runway, which accounted for 52% of its total length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 140 knots, clearing the ground with ease.

As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, ascending from an initial altitude of 1,256 feet above sea level to a cruising altitude of 29,854 feet. This climb phase, which lasted 28 minutes, covered a distance of 171 nautical miles and saw the aircraft gain an impressive 28,599 feet in altitude. Following a brief level cruise phase, during which the aircraft maintained a steady altitude and speed for 9 minutes, covering 64 nautical miles, the aircraft began its enroute descent, gradually losing altitude from 29,571 feet to 2,289 feet in 23 minutes, while covering 126 nautical miles.

As the aircraft approached its destination, Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, it initiated its final approach to runway 27L, aligning itself with the runway from the east at a height of 1,247 feet above ground level. The aircraft touched down on the runway at a speed of 101 knots, with a touchdown distance of 439 meters, which was well within the acceptable limits. The aircraft's touchdown rate was also satisfactory, at -163 feet per minute. Following a smooth rollout, the aircraft came to a stop, having covered a total landing distance of 937 meters, which accounted for 34% of the runway's length. After taxiing to the parking area, the aircraft completed its journey, having traveled a total distance of 371 nautical miles and consumed 2,564 kilograms of fuel in the process.
