Next time

Departure

Bring the nose up a little sooner on the roll, rotating so the wheels leave the ground at 90 kt.

What happened: The aircraft lifted off at 111 kt, 21 kt above target. Lifting off this fast usually carries through into the climb as lower g force through Climb 1, Climb 2 and Climb 3.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 90 kt at liftoff.

See Departure RollDeparture Climb 1Departure Climb 2Departure Climb 3

A typical trainer rotates in the mid-50s of knots - a 172 at around 55 KIAS, climbing out at a Vy in the low 70s, though check your own POH rather than memorising Cessna's numbers - and the transferable rule is that Vr sits just above the stall speed in takeoff configuration. Rotate early because "it felt ready" and the aircraft lifts off inside ground effect, where induced drag is reduced, then climbs out of it into more drag. On a marginal-performance day the result is an aircraft that lifts off and then refuses to climb, sagging back towards the runway.

Speed and pitch

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

Lifted off at 110 kt with 2.6° 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. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, the part of the climb scored on holding the climb speed.

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 shaded stretch is Climb 3, scored on its average speed against the target.

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 stabilisation gates

One stabilised approach gate: six 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.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 1.7 to 0.7 nm, then not again: fast from 0.7 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 2° band in green.

High from 3.7 nm, where the final began, to 2.7 nm (up to 1,240 ft over), then back on it to the threshold.

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.

Speed against the approach speed. The green band runs from 5 kt slow to 42 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 25 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Inside the speed band from 3.7 nm, where the final began, to 2.7 nm, then fast to 1.7 nm (up to +40 kt), then inside the band to 0.7 nm, then fast to the threshold (up to +17 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

No crosswind: nothing to correct for. Touched down with the nose 1° right of the track, wings level.

Wind 270° at 1 kt · 1 kt tail · 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 65 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 13 s, an average deceleration of 0.15 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 28 ft, 22 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 776 m in, 471 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 280 fpm at 26 ft to 60 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 3.1° 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.

Flight narrative

The Velocity XL aircraft departed from runway 30 at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport, rolling down the runway for a takeoff distance of 101 meters, which accounted for 4% of the runway's length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 111 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind of 1 knot blowing from a direction of 269 degrees. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and headwind component.

As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it began its enroute climb overhead Monkton, a location in South Ayrshire, Scotland. During this phase, the aircraft ascended from an initial altitude of 1,081 feet above sea level to a final altitude of 1,839 feet, representing an increase of 759 feet in just 4 minutes. The aircraft covered a distance of 3 nautical miles during this climb.

Upon reaching the desired altitude, the aircraft began its final approach to runway 12 at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport, which was located to the north-west. The aircraft was heading in a direction of 122.0 degrees and was 3 nautical miles away from the runway at an altitude of 1,746 feet above ground level.

The landing phase of the flight was notable for a few factors. The threshold speed was slightly higher than desired at 97 knots, but the touchdown speed of 65 knots was good, and the touchdown rate of -9 feet per minute was perfect. The runway touchdown alignment was also very good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The local weather conditions remained the same as during takeoff, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind of 1 knot blowing from a direction of 269 degrees.

The aircraft landed 338 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the total landing distance was 1,115 meters, which accounted for 41% of the runway's length. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled deceleration of the aircraft after touchdown. The total flight distance was 7 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 6 minutes, during which the aircraft consumed 2 kilograms of fuel.
