Next time

Departure

Reduce climb power to bring speed back to 170 kt and hold it there.

What happened: Climb speed was 53 kt fast at 223 kt during the climb.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 170 kt in the climb

See Departure Climb 3

Arrival

Keep the back pressure coming once the flare is established, holding the nose up through to touchdown instead of easing it.

What happened: The flare arrested the sink but 676 fpm of it came back before touchdown, and in flights like this one that returning sink usually carries through to a firm or hard touchdown at 580 fpm.

Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: the sink held near zero all the way through touchdown, not allowed to build back up.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

Rotated early

The nose came up at 138 kt, 10 kt before the 148 kt rotate speed.

The rotate speed is set for the weight and the flap, and the nose should not start up before it. Lifting it early brings the aircraft to its liftoff attitude with less speed in hand, and on a long fuselage that is the tail-strike case. Keep the hands still until the speed is there, then make one smooth, continuous pull.

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.

Side view from the start of the roll to the end of Climb 3 at 814 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 1,220 m of runway left; gear up at 113 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 1,250 fpm on average to 814 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 dark stretch of the roll is the run with the nose up and the wheels still on, with its length and time under the runway. The gear-up ring is coloured by its mark. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, scored on its average speed against the target.

Speed and pitch from brake release to the end of the climb, against time.

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 grey band is the run between the nose coming up and the wheels leaving the runway. The figures at liftoff are the pitch then and how fast the nose came up, in degrees a second. The rotation detail below draws the rotation against the rates for this aircraft and its tail-strike pitch, where the slope reads properly. The grey dashed line across the pitch is the attitude held from 35 ft to the end: a nose held steady is a climb speed that holds, and the airspeed trace sits directly above it to compare. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, the part of the climb scored on holding the climb speed.

Rotation detail the pitch over the seconds from rotation to 35 ft, where the slope reads properly.

How to read this

The pitch over the seconds from the nose starting to come up to 35 ft, stretched so the slope reads properly. The green dot is where the nose started up, the grey band runs to the wheels leaving, and the figures at liftoff are the pitch then and how fast the nose came up. The two dashed green lines rising from the rotation point are 2.0 to 3.0° a second, the middle half of rotation rates flown by other Airbus A320neo pilots over the last 180 days (154 takeoffs); the grey pair are 2 to 3° a second, the rates airliners are rotated at. A trace steeper than both green lines is a faster rotation than most, one shallower than both a slower one. The red dashed line is 11.7°, the pitch at which this aircraft's tail touches the runway with the wheels still on it, drawn from rotation to liftoff only: once the wheels leave, every foot climbed adds tail clearance.

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 20 kt above the approach speed of 136 kt.

When the approach was stable

Never every check met at once: banked until 3.1 nm, fast until 0.3 nm, left of the centreline from 1.6 nm and low from 0.2 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.

On the glideslope from 3.6 nm, where the final began, to 2.9 nm, then low to 1.4 nm (up to 330 ft under), then back on it to 0.2 nm, then low to the threshold (up to 40 ft under).

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.

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.

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 flare wandered off the target profile

The flare arrested the sink and then let it come back - 676 fpm of it - so the aircraft dropped the last few feet. Touchdown was 189 m past the threshold. Keep the back pressure coming once the flare is established.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.

Began the flare at 42 ft, 213 m before the threshold; crossed the threshold at 23 ft, 27 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 189 m in, 116 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 1,524 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 590 fpm at the flare to 230 fpm at 23 ft, then back up to 580 fpm at touchdown. The pitch barely changed. Into the flare at 139 kt, 3 kt over the 136 kt approach speed, and 131 kt at touchdown.

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 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. The sentence gives the nose against the direction you were actually moving as the wheels touched, and the steepest bank as they touched, the figure the touchdown's Bank tile marks. The rest of it is shown for reading, not marked.

The stop — touchdown to taxi speed.

From 133 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 55 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.

Flight narrative

The Airbus A320neo departed from runway 22 at DAUA Touat Cheikh Sidi Mohamed Belkebir Airport. Take-off used 1,299 m of runway (43 % of runway) and rotation occurred at 138 kt. Local weather was 17 °C with wind 1 kt from 270°, giving a 1 kt headwind and 1 kt crosswind.

Initial climb to 1,000 ft AGL took 37 seconds, averaging 1,128 fpm and reaching 249 kt at the top. The aircraft then climbed from 1,814 ft ASL to 24,985 ft ASL in 9 minutes, covering 49 nm, beginning the climb 2 nm south-west of DAUA.

Cruise was level at 25,000 ft ASL for 219 minutes, covering 1,602 nm, starting 33 nm south-east of DAAR Adrar Airport.

Descent began from 24,697 ft ASL to 883 ft ASL in 15 minutes, covering 81 nm, starting 36 nm west of Al Fayyum, with a brief level-off at 4,500 ft ASL.

On final approach to runway 05R at HECA Cairo International Airport, descent from 921 ft AGL to 150 ft AGL took 78 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 500 ft above the runway were met for gear down, landing flap, sink rate, glideslope, and wings level; they were not met for centreline and speed. Configuration was landing gear down at 2,433 ft AGL at 260 kt and final flap position 4 at 2,122 ft AGL at 251 kt.

Landing on runway 05R used a runway length of 4,000 m. Threshold speed was 134 kt. The flare was described as good; the aircraft dropped onto the runway at the end of the flare. Touchdown occurred 188 m from the threshold at 131 kt, with a very hard rate of minus 580 fpm. The touchdown point was misaligned by 19.7 m from the centreline. No bounce occurred. Total landing distance was 710 m (18 % of runway). Runway rollout was slightly misaligned by 10.2 m from the centreline.

Local weather at HECA was 15 °C with wind 1 kt from 269°, giving a 1 kt crosswind and 1 kt tailwind.

Taxi from the runway to parking took 15 minutes and covered 3 nm. The total flight covered 1,741 nm in 261 minutes and used 5,255 kg of fuel.
