See Arrival Landing

Every knot above Vref is stored kinetic energy, and energy stored at the threshold must be dissipated in ground effect before the aeroplane will stop flying. Because kinetic energy scales with the square of speed, the excess you must dissipate grows fast. At a 45-knot approach, five knots hot is over a tenth more speed and roughly a quarter more energy to get rid of in ground effect. This is why the fix is never in the flare. It was decided three miles earlier, on final, at the airspeed indicator.

Lifted off at 27 kt with 9.0° 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.

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.

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.

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 78 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 48 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Inside the speed band from 0.9 nm, where the final began, to 0.7 nm, then fast to the threshold (up to +30 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

Calm: nothing to correct for. Touched down straight, wings level.

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 32 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 1 s, an average deceleration of 0.06 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 1,485 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.

The sink went from 380 fpm at 45 ft to 140 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 5.7° 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 flight in question was operated by the Savage Norden, an aerial advertising aircraft. The taxiing process from the parking area to the runway took approximately 4 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 22 at Hawarden Airport (EGNR), with a takeoff distance of 65 meters, which accounted for 4% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was recorded at 28 knots.

As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb overhead Broughton, a location in the County of Flintshire, Wales. The climb began at an altitude of 573 feet above sea level and reached a height of 1,811 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,238 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise then started overhead Dodleston, a location in Cheshire West and Chester, England, and lasted for 11 minutes, covering a distance of 92 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 02 at Croydon Airport (EGCR) was initiated from the south, with a heading of 22.0 degrees at an altitude of 322 feet above ground level and 1 nautical mile from the runway. The landing on runway 02 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 373 meters, which was 27% of the runway length. The touchdown speed was recorded at 31 knots, and the touchdown rate was smooth at -140 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 10.2 meters.

The local weather conditions during the landing were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned from the centreline by 10.3 meters. The taxiing process from the runway to the parking area took less than 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 96 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 20 minutes, with a fuel consumption of 21 kilograms.
