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.

Lifted off at 84 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 1,084 ft. The distance scale changes past the runway end.

Reached 35 ft with 260 m of runway left; then climbing at 1,430 fpm on average to 1,084 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 693 m runway.

Rolled from 45 m in, drifted left of the centreline, 9.6 m at the widest, and lifted off 9.2 m left, in 18 kn of crosswind from the left. Airborne 40 % 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.

The stabilisation gates

One stabilised approach gate: seven checks where the approach path is 300 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.

Seven checks, one gate300 ft
Gear down
Landing flap
Sink rate
On glideslope
On centreline
On speed
Wings level

At the 300 ft gate: glideslope more than 2° off the runway's 3.3° and centreline more than 1° off.

When the approach was stable

Never every check met at once: left of the centreline all the way, banked until 1.1 nm, high until 0.4 nm, sinking too fast from 0.6 nm and fast from 0.5 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 KLDJ 27

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

Profile height against the 3.3° glideslope, with its 2° band in green.

High from 1.4 nm, where the final began, to 0.4 nm (up to 400 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: 3.3° here, which is about 350 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.

Joined 722 m left of the centreline at 1.4 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 45 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 27 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Inside the speed band from 1.4 nm, where the final began, to 0.5 nm, then fast to the threshold (up to +22 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

13 kt across from the right, which takes about 10° of crab to hold the centreline at 79 kt. Touched down with 10° of it still on, wings level.

Wind 329° at 14 kt · 4 kt head · 13 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 74 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 22 s, an average deceleration of 0.10 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 953 m of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 12 ft, 38 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 163 m in, 141 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 953 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 50 fpm at 13 ft to 70 fpm at 13 ft, then back up to 170 fpm at touchdown. The pitch barely changed.

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 flight began with a departure roll from runway 06 at KMTP Montauk Airport, a Beechcraft Duke taking to the skies. The aircraft required a takeoff distance of 277 meters, which was 40% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 85 knots, and the local weather conditions were quite chilly, with a temperature of -15 degrees Celsius. The wind was blowing at 18 knots from a direction of 330 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 18 knots and a headwind of 4 knots.

As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb 1 mile northeast of KMTP Montauk Airport. The climb was steep, with the aircraft ascending from 1,123 feet above sea level to 13,924 feet above sea level, an increase of 12,801 feet in just 11 minutes. This climb phase covered a distance of 25 nautical miles. The aircraft then leveled off and entered a cruise phase, flying at a steady altitude for 18 minutes as it covered a distance of 58 nautical miles. This cruise phase started 1 mile southwest of Bridgehampton, New York.

As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent overhead East Meadow, New York. The descent was rapid, with the aircraft dropping from 14,000 feet above sea level to 2,085 feet above sea level, a decrease of 11,915 feet in just 8 minutes. This descent phase covered a distance of 30 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 27 at KLDJ Linden Airport, flying from the east at a heading of 252.0 degrees. The aircraft was at an altitude of 2,005 feet above ground level and 2 nautical miles from the runway.

The landing was executed on runway 27 at KLDJ Linden Airport, a runway with a length of 953 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly below the target speed at 91 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 161 meters, and the touchdown speed was also good at 79 knots. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -201 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline, being off by 9.4 meters.

The total landing distance was 493 meters, which was 52% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned from the centerline, being off by 9.5 meters. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area from the runway, taking just 1 minute to cover a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 121 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 47 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 85 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
