Next time

Departure

Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.

What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 19 ft off the runway centreline.

Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.

See Departure Roll

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 53 ft, and drifting off centreline at touchdown usually carries through into the rollout, as it did here with alignment reaching 51 ft.

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.

Speed and pitch

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

Rotated at 127 kt, on the 125 kt target, and lifted off at 137 kt 2.5 s later, the nose coming up at 2.9° a second. Climb 3 held close to its 169 kt target, at 170 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 913 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 8,585 ft of runway left; gear up at 5 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 2,020 fpm on average to 913 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.

The stabilisation gates

Two stabilised approach gates, each with six 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.

At the 500 ft gate: centreline more than 1° off.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 4 nm to 1.6 nm, then not again: slow 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 KSPI 31

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 above 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, 1,000 ft 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.

Plan distance off the extended centreline, your left at the top, with the 1° band. Sideways distances are drawn 7× larger than distances along the final.

Inside the 1° band from 4 nm to 1.6 nm, then drifted 170 ft left between 1.6 and 0.7 nm, then inside the band from 0.7 nm to the threshold.

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 31 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 18 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Inside the speed band from 4 nm to 0.5 nm, then slow to the threshold (up to −14 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 flare100.00

The flare tracked the target profile exactly. The aircraft was flown onto the runway - pitch changed 2.3° and the descent was barely arrested. Touchdown was 955 ft past the threshold. Start the flare with progressive back pressure rather than one pull, and keep it coming.

The crosswind

Little crosswind (1 kt): nothing to correct for. Touched down straight, wings level.

Wind 269° at 2 kt · 2 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 104 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 16 s, an average deceleration of 0.26 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 5,000 ft of the approach.

Began the flare at 37 ft, 40 ft before the threshold; crossed the threshold at 35 ft, 15 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 955 ft in, close to the ideal 1,000 ft.

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 5,000 ft across. The dashed line is the ideal, 50 ft over the threshold and down 1,000 ft 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 620 fpm at the flare to 180 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 2.3° 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 C750 taxied from the parking area to runway 09L at KATL, a movement that required 4 minutes and covered less than 1 nm.

During the departure roll on runway 09L, the aircraft accelerated to a liftoff speed of 138 kt, using a takeoff distance of 2,814 ft (23 % of the runway). Ambient conditions were 62 °F with a wind of 2 kt from 270°, no cross-wind and a 2 kt tailwind component.

Climb commenced overhead KATL, with the airplane ascending from 2,008 ft asl to 20,008 ft asl, an altitude gain of 18,000 ft achieved in 8 minutes while covering 42 nm.

The first level cruise began 5 nm southeast of White, GA, and persisted for 44 minutes, during which 345 nm were flown.

Descent started 6 nm southeast of Brownstown, IL, where the aircraft reduced altitude from 20,005 ft asl to 2,947 ft asl, a loss of 17,058 ft over 10 minutes and a distance of 57 nm.

A second level cruise was initiated 2 nm southeast of 92IS Taft Airport, Rochester, IL, lasting 3 minutes and encompassing 9 nm.

Final approach to runway 31 at KSPI was conducted from the southeast on a heading of 307.0°, intercepting the glide path at 4 nm and 1,278 ft agl.

Landing on runway 31 was completed with a threshold speed of 109 kt, touchdown occurring at 950 ft down the runway and a speed of 104 kt. The touchdown rate was minus 270 fpm, and the touchdown point was offset 52 ft from the centreline. Weather at KSPI reported 59 °F with a wind of 2 kt from 270°, a 1 kt cross-wind and a 2 kt head-wind component.

The total landing roll measured 2,460 ft (33 % of the runway) and the rollout was laterally misaligned by 51 ft from the centreline.

Taxi-in to the parking area from the runway required less than 1 minute and covered less than 1 nm.

Overall, the flight covered 460 nm, lasted 72 minutes, and consumed 237 lb of fuel.
