Next time

Arrival

Track the centreline through touchdown using small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway.

What happened: The aircraft touched down off the centreline at 11 m, and drifting off centreline at touchdown usually carries through into the rollout, as it did here with alignment reaching 21 m.

Watch for: Watch runway centreline position, keeping deviation inside the limit through touchdown and rollout.

See Arrival LandingArrival Rollout

Ground control varies with speed, full authority at walking pace, progressively reducing as groundspeed rises. The aircraft becomes twitchy at any speed, every small pedal input swings the nose, which can encourage large-amplitude leg inputs that no real aircraft would accept.

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 arrow beside the runway is the crosswind, pointing the way the air was moving, so it pushed the aircraft that way.

The circuit to EGHN 22

Right-hand, 1,000 ft circuit height. The plan shows your circuit over a textbook one for this runway; the profile unrolls the same path from liftoff to the threshold.

Plan landing direction to the left; in pale blue the textbook circuit for your downwind speed, 0.7 nm out at 73 kt

How to read this

The lap from above, with the landing direction to the left: the opposite of the runway drawings. The wide pale-blue line is a textbook circuit for your downwind speed - the downwind a mile out for every 100 kt, every turn at 30° of bank - and your track is drawn over it, each leg in the colour of its mark. The numbers are the four turns, the same as on the profile and the cards below. The 45° line from the threshold is the usual point to turn onto base.

How to read this

The same lap straightened out, so the height and the bank can be read together. Each shaded stretch is a turn, numbered as on the plan. The green box is circuit height, 1,000 ft, on the downwind. The amber line is 30° of bank, and a turn's steepest bank shows red above 32°. "Turn crosswind from" is the lowest height to start the first turn at.

Overshot: went 109 m through the centreline turning final.

Overshooting final. A tailwind component on base sweeps you through the extended centreline, the instinctive correction is to steepen the bank and, when that's not enough, to skid the turn with rudder. In a real aircraft this is the base-to-final stall-spin scenario that kills people. The sim under-punishes it, because a spring yoke transmits no lightening of control force, there's no buffet through your hands, and no seat-of-the-pants sensation of the skid. You get the numbers of the skidded turn without the feel of it. The correct response is the same in both worlds and needs practising until it's reflexive. Don't steepen past 30 degrees, and if you've blown through the centreline, go around and reset.

The approach to EGHN 22

The final from 4 nm.

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

High from 0.6 nm, where the final began, to the threshold (up to 250 ft over).

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.

Plan distance off the extended centreline, your left at the top, with the 1° band. Sideways distances are drawn 3× larger than distances along the final.

Joined 109 m left of the centreline at 0.6 nm.

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 22 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 13 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Fast from 0.6 nm, where the final began, to the threshold (up to +13 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.

Perfect landing flare

The crosswind

Little crosswind (1 kt): nothing to correct for. Touched down straight, 3° of bank.

Wind 269° at 2 kt · 1 kt head · 1 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 44 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 12 s, an average deceleration of 0.07 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.

Crossed the threshold at 19 ft, 31 ft below the 50 ft target; began the flare at 20 ft. Touched down 318 m in, close to 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 906 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.

Flight narrative

The Taylorcraft BC-12D taxied to runway 22 at EGHN Isle of Wight / Sandown Airport and commenced the departure roll. The aircraft accelerated for a take-off distance of 176 m, representing 19 % of the runway, and lifted off at 40 kt. Ambient conditions were 15 °C with a wind of 4 kt from 276°, a cross-wind component of 3 kt and a head-wind component of 2 kt.

Entering the right-hand pattern from runway 22, the aircraft covered less than 1 nm in 14 seconds before joining the cross-wind leg.

The right-hand cross-wind leg from runway 22 extended for less than 1 nm and required 18 seconds to complete.

During the downwind turn the aircraft flew a 1 nm arc, establishing a 45° angle to the runway of 60.8°.

The downwind leg itself was 1 nm long and was flown in 55 seconds.

A base-leg turn followed, again spanning 1 nm with a 45° angle to the runway measured at 49.2°.

The base leg was completed in less than 1 nm of flight, taking 23 seconds.

The final turn to the runway was also less than 1 nm and required 23 seconds to align for approach.

On final approach to runway 22 the aircraft descended from 496 ft AGL to 36 ft AGL in 36 seconds and was recorded as having scored on the stabilisation gates.

Landing on runway 22, which is 906 m long, the aircraft touched down at a threshold speed of 56 kt (noted as too high). Touchdown occurred 316 m down the runway at 36 kt with a descent rate of minus 86 fpm; the touchdown point was offset 11.6 m from the centreline. Weather at the time was 15 °C with a wind of 2 kt from 269°, a cross-wind component of 1 kt and a head-wind component of 1 kt.

The rollout covered a total landing distance of 512 m, equivalent to 56 % of the runway, and the aircraft’s alignment during rollout was off by 21.4 m from the centreline.

In summary, the flight covered a total distance of 5 nm, took 4 (units as provided), and consumed 0 kg of fuel.
