What held you back

Arrival Rollout — Runway alignment max 85.56 m right at 0 %, −3.00 points
Departure Climb 3 — climb speed 247 kt against 170 kt at 13 %, −2.95 points
Arrival Approach — GPWS warning; 500 ft gate 60 %, −2.67 points

Next time

Departure

Reduce climb power to bring speed back to 170 kt and hold it there.

What happened: Climb speed was 77 kt fast at 247 kt during the climb.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 170 kt in the climb

See Departure Climb 3

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 28 m, and drifting off centreline at touchdown usually carries through into the rollout, as it did here with alignment reaching 86 m.

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

See Arrival LandingArrival Rollout

Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

Speed and pitch

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

Rotated at 138 kt, 6 kt below the 144 kt target, and lifted off at 153 kt 3.1 s later, the nose coming up at 2.2° a second. Climb 3 averaged 247 kt, 77 kt over its 170 kt target.

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 745 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 1,419 m of runway left; gear up at 131 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 1,240 fpm on average to 745 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 3,310 m runway.

Rolled from 295 m in, never more than 1.2 m off the centreline. Airborne 42 % 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

One stabilised approach gate: five 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. These checks are the approach's score.

Five checks, one gate500 ft 60.003 of 5
Gear down
Landing flap
Sink rate470 fpm
On glideslope2.4°
On speed+23 kt

At the 500 ft gate: glideslope more than 1° off the runway's 3.7° and speed more than 20 kt above the approach speed of 135 kt.

Still turning onto final at the lower gate, so the centreline and wings level are not asked there - the aeroplane was not lined up yet, and was banked because it was turning. The other checks are marked as usual.

When the approach was stable

Never every check met at once: low all the way, banked until 1.5 nm, fast until 0.3 nm, left of the centreline from 1.0 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 LFKJ 20

The final from 4 nm, with the stabilisation gates on it.

Profile height against the 3.7° glideslope, with its 1° band in green.

Low from 2.2 nm, where the final began, to the threshold (up to 330 ft under).

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: 3.7° here, which is about 390 ft for every nautical mile out, crossing the threshold at about 60 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.

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.

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

Inside the speed band from 2.2 nm, where the final began, to 1.4 nm, then fast to 0.3 nm (up to +23 kt), then inside the band to the threshold.

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 flare63.98

The flare wandered off the target profile. The aircraft was flown onto the runway - pitch changed 0.8° and the descent was barely arrested. Touchdown was 208 m past the threshold. Start the flare with progressive back pressure rather than one pull, and keep it coming.

The crosswind

No crosswind: nothing to correct for. Touched down straight, 4° of bank.

Wind 269° at 1 kt · 0 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 131 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 16 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.

Began the flare at 43 ft, 87 m before the threshold; crossed the threshold at 29 ft, 21 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 208 m in, 97 m short of 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 750 fpm at the flare to 590 fpm at touchdown. The nose went down 1.5° 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 Airbus A320neo departed from runway 07 at LFPO Paris-Orly Airport. Takeoff used 1,385 m of runway (42 % of runway) and rotation occurred at 138 kt. Local weather was 16 °C with wind 1 kt from 270°, crosswind 0 kt and tailwind 1 kt.

Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl took 34 seconds, averaging 1,208 fpm and reaching 250 kt at the top of the climb. The aircraft then climbed from 1,113 ft asl to 24,989 ft asl in 9 minutes, covering 56 nm and passing overhead Ablon-sur-Seine.

Level flight was maintained at 25,000 ft asl for 57 minutes, covering 414 nm, with the aircraft passing overhead Thimory.

Descent began from 24,998 ft asl to 289 ft asl in 15 minutes, covering 80 nm. The descent started 32 miles west of Galeria and included a brief level-off at 3,100 ft asl.

During final approach to runway 20 at LFKJ Ajaccio-Napoléon Bonaparte Airport, the aircraft descended from 546 ft agl to 55 ft agl in 47 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 500 ft above the runway were met for gear down, landing flap and sink rate, but not met for glideslope and speed. The landing gear was lowered at 2,263 ft agl while the aircraft was at 262 kt. Final flap position 4 was selected at 873 ft agl with a speed of 208 kt.

The aircraft landed on runway 20. Runway length is 2,180 m. Threshold height was good and threshold speed was good at 134 kt. The flare was described as fair, with little round-out. Touchdown occurred 208 m from the threshold at a speed of 131 kt, which was good, but the touchdown rate was very hard at minus 595 fpm. The touchdown point was significantly misaligned by 29.9 m from the centreline. No bounce occurred.

Total landing distance was 773 m (35 % of runway). Runway rollout alignment was excessively misaligned by 85.6 m from the centreline. Local weather at landing was 15 °C with wind 1 kt from 270°, crosswind 1 kt and headwind 0 kt.

Taxiing from the runway to the parking area took 5 minutes and covered less than 1 nm.

The entire flight covered 556 nm, lasted 88 minutes and used 1,737 kg of fuel.
