Next time

Arrival

Fly the aircraft onto the runway at the aim point instead of holding it off and letting it float further down the runway.

What happened: This landing touched down well beyond the target point on the runway, with nothing else in the approach or flare accounting for it.

Watch for: Aim point markings: touchdown at the target point on the runway.

See Arrival Touchdown

The rudder input is a changing profile through the roll rather than one that is held. So the demand on your right foot starts large at power application, eases as speed builds and the rudder gains authority, then jumps again at rotation.

Speed and pitch

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

Rotated at 146 kt, on the 147 kt target, and lifted off at 156 kt 3.7 s later, the nose coming up at 2.3° a second. Climb 3 held close to its 164 kt target, at 160 kt on average.

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. 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 847 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 362 m of runway left; gear up at 120 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 2,400 fpm on average to 847 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.

Plan view the roll down the 2,138 m runway.

Rolled from the start of the runway, drifted 6.3 m right of the centreline and was back on it to lift off. Airborne 69 % of the way down the runway, before the 75 % line.

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

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.

Every check met from 4 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 1° band in green.

Inside the glideslope band from 4 nm to the threshold, never more than 60 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.

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 33 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 20 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Inside the speed band all the way, between +0 kt and +3 kt on the approach speed of 133 kt.

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 flare93.58

The flare held the target profile well. Pitch reached 6.5° at touchdown, well above this aircraft's ground attitude. Touchdown was 793 m past the threshold. That is tail strike territory - stop the rotation once the sink is arrested.

The crosswind

Little crosswind (1 kt): nothing to correct for. Touched down with the nose 1° right of the track, 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 125 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 15 s, an average deceleration of 0.33 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 41 ft, close to the 50 ft target; began the flare at 34 ft. Touched down 793 m in, 488 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 440 fpm at the flare to 60 fpm at 20 ft, then back up to 340 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 2.0° on the way down.

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.

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

The Airbus A320-ceo taxied from the parking area to runway 30 at LEBB Bilbao Airport, a movement that lasted 10 minutes and covered 1 nm.

Take-off was performed on runway 30 with a take-off distance of 1,477 m, which was 69 % of the runway length. Rotation occurred at 146 kt. Local weather at departure was 17 °C, wind 2 kt from 269°, giving a 1 kt cross-wind and a 2 kt head-wind.

The initial climb to 1,000 ft agl took 18 seconds, averaging 2,297 fpm and reaching 158 kt at the top of the climb. The aircraft then climbed from 1,371 ft asl to 33,862 ft asl in 17 minutes, covering 100 nm, beginning the climb 1 mile east of Erandio.

Cruise was maintained at 34,000 ft asl for 53 minutes, covering 407 nm, with the aircraft positioned overhead Messanges.

Descent began from 33,784 ft asl to 1,282 ft asl in 23 minutes, covering 117 nm, starting 1 mile north-east of Ribemont-sur-Ancre. The descent included brief level-offs at 11,000 ft asl and 3,000 ft asl.

Final approach to runway 19 at EBBR Brussels Airport started from 1,162 ft agl and descended to -115 ft agl in 104 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway were all met: gear down, landing flap, sink rate, on glideslope, on centreline, on speed, wings level. The landing gear was down at 2,163 ft agl at 145 kt, and the final flap position 5 was selected at 2,400 ft agl at 146 kt.

Landing was made on runway 19, whose length is 2,766 m. The threshold height was good and the threshold speed was good at 133 kt. The flare was described as excellent; the aircraft floated before touchdown. Touchdown occurred 371 m beyond the touchdown zone, at a speed of 124 kt, which was good, with a firm touchdown rate of minus 341 fpm and perfect runway-touchdown alignment. Local weather at landing was 15 °C, wind 2 kt from 270°, giving a 2 kt cross-wind and no head-wind. No bounce was observed.

The total landing distance was 1,399 m, representing 51 % of the runway, and the rollout alignment was perfect.

After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a movement that took 5 minutes and covered less than 1 nm.

The flight covered a total distance of 633 nm in 111 minutes and used 4,125 kg of fuel.
