Next time

Departure

Use small, coordinated rudder and aileron inputs to hold your assigned climb heading as soon as drift begins.

What happened: During the second climb segment, you let the aircraft drift off the assigned heading.

Watch for: Heading indicator: steady on the assigned climb heading

See Departure Climb 2

Arrival

Use small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline during rollout, keeping the wings level with gentle aileron.

What happened: The aircraft rolled out on landing with 4.6° of bank angle.

Watch for: Watch the bank angle indicator and hold the wings level through the rollout.

See Arrival Landing

A good takeoff has a defined shape. It also has a defined end. For an airliner that's thrust reduction and acceleration, commonly somewhere around 1,000 to 1,500 ft above the airfield depending on the operator, while for a light aircraft it's established at Vy with the flaps on schedule. Most simmers have no defined end to their takeoff, which is exactly why it never gets judged.

Speed and pitch

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

Rotated at 51 kt, 19 kt below the 70 kt target, and lifted off at 62 kt 2.3 s later, the nose coming up at 0.7° a second.

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 figures at liftoff are the pitch then and how fast the nose came up, in degrees a second.

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 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 crosswind

No crosswind: nothing to correct for. Touched down straight, wings level.

Wind 269° at 2 kt · 2 kt head · 0 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 53 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 9 s, an average deceleration of 0.17 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 880 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.

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 Beechcraft Sierra C24R taxied to runway 26 at EGHP Popham Airfield and commenced the departure roll. The aircraft lifted off after a takeoff run of 481 m, representing 55 % of the runway, at a speed of 62 kt. Ambient conditions were 15 °C with a wind of 2 kt from 269°, giving a head-wind component of 2 kt and no cross-wind.

During the climb the airplane departed the vicinity of EGHP and rose from 813 ft asl to 1,138 ft asl, a gain of 325 ft achieved in 1 minute while covering 2 nm. The climb was conducted straight ahead of the departure aerodrome.

Cruise commenced approximately 1 mile west of North Waltham, Hampshire, and was maintained for 6 minutes during which the aircraft covered 9 nm. No altitude change was reported for the cruise segment.

The final descent began from 444 ft agl and continued to 18 ft agl, a vertical reduction completed in 48 seconds. This descent prepared the aircraft for the approach to runway 26.

On final approach to runway 26 the aircraft satisfied the stabilization gates, indicating compliance with the prescribed approach parameters.

Landing was executed on runway 26, whose total length is 880 m. The threshold speed was recorded at 70 kt, and touchdown occurred 232 m down the runway at 55 kt with a smooth vertical rate of -123 fpm. The touchdown point was offset by 3.1 m from the centreline, and the total landing distance measured 383 m, equivalent to 43 % of the runway. Weather conditions remained 15 °C with a 2 kt wind from 269°, providing a 2 kt head-wind and zero cross-wind.

Runway rollout alignment was judged very good, with the aircraft remaining on the centreline throughout the deceleration phase.

In total the flight covered 13 nm, required 9 minutes of elapsed time, and consumed 4 kg of fuel.
