What went well

Touched down at -190 fpm — a soft arrival
Threshold crossed at 39 ft and 130 kt — both inside band
Straight touchdown — 1.29 m off the centreline, no bounce

What held you back

Arrival Landing — Flare profile at 86 %, −0.14 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown distance was 582 m at 86 %, −0.12 points

Next time

Work on the flare

See Arrival Landing

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

Speed and pitch

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

Lifted off at 141 kt with 8.6° 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.

Side view from the start of the roll to the end of Climb 3 at 841 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 1,918 m of runway left; then climbing at 2,970 fpm on average to 841 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 shaded stretch is Climb 3, scored on its average speed against the target.

Plan view the roll down the 3,186 m runway.

Rolled from 182 m in, never more than 1.4 m off the centreline. Airborne 32 % 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 arrow beside the runway is the crosswind, pointing the way the air was moving, so it pushed the aircraft that way.

When the approach was stable

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 approach to EHAM 18C

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 40 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 32 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 19 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Inside the speed band all the way, between +4 kt and +30 kt on the approach speed of 126 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 straight, wings level.

Wind 179° at 3 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 117 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 24 s, an average deceleration of 0.20 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 39 ft, 11 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 581 m in, 276 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 720 fpm at 39 ft to 160 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 1.4° 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

Departing from Helsinki Vantaa Airport, the Boeing 737-600 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 5 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. As it reached the runway, the aircraft started its departure roll on runway 22L, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 141 knots. The takeoff distance of 1,035 meters accounted for 32% of the runway length, with the aircraft clearing the ground at a height of 1,098 feet above sea level.

As the aircraft climbed out of Helsinki Vantaa Airport, it began its enroute climb, reaching a cruising altitude of 37,703 feet above sea level in 30 minutes, covering a distance of 204 nautical miles. The climb was characterized by a steady increase in altitude, with the aircraft eventually reaching its cruising level. The enroute level cruise phase that followed lasted 68 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 493 nautical miles. The descent phase began 1 mile south east of JadeWeser Airport Wilhelmshaven, with the aircraft descending from 37,778 feet to 1,290 feet above sea level in 24 minutes, covering a distance of 146 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 18C at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol was conducted from the north, with the aircraft aligning itself with the runway at a height of 1,281 feet above ground level. The landing was executed with a threshold speed slightly above the target, at 130 knots. The touchdown point was 158 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 122 knots and a touchdown rate of -188 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also satisfactory. The total landing distance of 1,069 meters accounted for 38% of the runway length. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 852 nautical miles, with a total fuel consumption of 5,778 kilograms.
