What went well

Threshold crossed at 39 ft and 139 kt — both inside band
Straight touchdown — 4.50 m off the centreline, no bounce
Flare on profile — 100 %

What held you back

Arrival Taxi — Landing Lights at 1 %, −0.33 points
Departure Climb 3 — climb speed 202 kt against 175 kt at 93 %, −0.20 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown rate was -208 fpm at 89 %, −0.20 points

Next time

Departure

Reduce climb power to bring speed back to 175 kt and hold it there.

What happened: Climb speed was 27 kt fast at 202 kt during the climb.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 175 kt in the climb

See Departure Climb 3

Arrival

Nothing to change in the speed, the height or the flare. Keep the landing attitude held until the mains are on, so the aircraft is not let down onto the runway in the last moment.

What happened: The touchdown rate was 207 fpm. Nothing before it explains that: threshold speed and height were within limits and the flare was flown normally.

Watch for: Touchdown rate: a little less than 207 fpm next time

See Arrival Touchdown

Twenty knots on a monitor produces the visual sensation of about ten. The advice to "taxi at a walking pace" cannot fix this, because your sense of walking pace is exactly the thing that's broken. Put the groundspeed readout in your scan and obey it for the next fifty flights, the way a student pilot leans on the airspeed indicator before learning to read attitude.

Speed and pitch

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

Rotated at 162 kt, 3 kt above the 159 kt target, and lifted off at 177 kt 3.6 s later, the nose coming up at 0.8° a second. Climb 3 averaged 202 kt, 27 kt over its 175 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 926 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 2,005 m of runway left; gear up at 363 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 2,300 fpm on average to 926 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 4,203 m runway.

Rolled from 154 m in, never more than 1.3 m off the centreline. Airborne 43 % 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

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 approach to SBBE 06

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 70 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 34 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 21 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Inside the speed band all the way, between +1 kt and +11 kt on the approach speed of 137 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

Little crosswind (1 kt): nothing to correct for. Touched down with the nose 1° left of the track, wings level.

Wind 060° at 4 kt · 4 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 137 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 45 s, an average deceleration of 0.13 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.

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 1,780 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 310 fpm at the flare to 210 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 1.2° 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 A350-900 taxied from the parking area to runway 08L at LFPG, a 9-minute, 2 nm movement, and departed on a take-off roll of 1,807 m (43 % of the runway). Rotation occurred at 162 kt. Local weather was 14 °C with a wind from 049° at 5 kt (crosswind 3 kt, headwind 4 kt).

Initial climb reached 1,000 ft agl in 21 seconds, averaging 2,179 fpm and attaining 207 kt at the top of the segment. The climb continued from 1,333 ft asl to 34,999 ft asl in 35 minutes, covering 259 nm and beginning overhead Mitry-Mory. A subsequent climb from 35,000 ft asl to 37,001 ft asl took 3 minutes over 26 nm, starting at latitude 36.0061039, longitude -11.4105801.

Level flight at 35,000 ft asl lasted 92 minutes, covering 793 nm, beginning 1 mile south-west of Saint-Pere-en-Retz. The aircraft then cruised between 37,000 ft and 40,000 ft asl for 355 minutes, covering 3,005 nm, starting at latitude 35.6401023, longitude -11.7317364.

Descent from 40,000 ft asl to 1,292 ft asl was completed in 23 minutes over 141 nm, beginning 36 miles north-east of Sao Joao de Pirabas. The final approach to runway 06 at SBBE commenced from 1,296 ft agl, descending to 64 ft agl in 104 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway were met for gear down, landing flap, sink rate, glideslope, centreline, speed, and wings level. Configuration was landing gear down at 2,314 ft agl, 186 kt; final flap position 4 at 1,358 ft agl, 154 kt.

Landing on runway 06 occurred with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 139 kt. The flare was described as perfect, with little round-out. Touchdown was 91 m beyond the touchdown zone at 138 kt, a little fast, with a fair rate of -208 fpm. The touchdown point was 5.0 m off the centreline but no bounce occurred. Total landing distance was 1,697 m (61 % of the runway) and rollout alignment was perfect.

After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm. The flight covered a total of 4,233 nm in 522 minutes, using 54,836 kg of fuel. Local weather at SBBE was 26 °C with a wind from 064° at 4 kt (crosswind 1 kt, headwind 4 kt).
