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 15 m off the runway centreline.

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

See Departure Roll

Arrival

On final, make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline.

What happened: The approach drifted off the centreline, and the aircraft touched down 21 m off the centreline before the rollout continued 25 m off it. Drifting off the centreline on approach usually carries through to touchdown and the rollout in the same direction.

Watch for: Centreline: track it with small rudder corrections, wings level.

See Arrival ApproachArrival 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 155 kt, on the 156 kt target, and lifted off at 159 kt 0.9 s later, the nose coming up at 2.8° a second. Climb 3 averaged 183 kt, 8 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 879 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 2,058 m of runway left; gear up at 451 ft, 51 ft past the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 3,120 fpm on average to 879 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 3,480 m runway.

Rolled from 161 m in, drifted right of the centreline, 14 m at the widest, and lifted off 9.4 m right, in 6 kn of crosswind from the right. Airborne 33 % 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 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.

Wings level3° bank

At the 500 ft gate: centreline more than 1° off and speed more than 19 kt above the approach speed of 129 kt.

When the approach was stable

Never every check met at once: high until 2.4 nm, sinking too fast until 2.1 nm, fast until 1.5 nm, left of the centreline from 2.6 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 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.

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.

Inside the 1° band from 4 nm to 2.6 nm, then 133 m left of it from 2.6 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 32 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 19 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Inside the speed band from 4 nm to 2.5 nm, then fast to 1.5 nm (up to +30 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 flare100.00

The flare tracked the target profile exactly. The aircraft floated down the runway before touching. Touchdown was 656 m past the threshold. Threshold speed was not the cause here - hold the aim point on the approach and let the aircraft settle rather than holding it off, and the touchdown comes back to the numbers.

The stop

From 120 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 64 s, an average deceleration of 0.07 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 1,524 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.

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.

During the departure roll on runway 22L, the aircraft used a takeoff distance of 1,175 m, representing 34 % of the runway, and achieved liftoff at 160 kt. Local weather at the time was temperature 15 °C with wind 7 kt from 319°, providing a crosswind component of 7 kt and a headwind component of 0 kt.

The climb commenced overhead EFHK, climbing from 1,146 ft asl to 40,000 ft asl, an increase of 38,854 ft achieved in 25 minutes while covering 170 nm.

Cruise began 53 miles south of Korppoo and continued for 74 minutes, during which the aircraft flew 569 nm at level altitude.

Descent started 1 mile east of Leezdorf, descending from 40,000 ft asl to 1,849 ft asl, a loss of 38,151 ft in 22 minutes and covering 124 nm.

The final approach to runway 18R at EHAM Amsterdam Airport Schiphol was conducted from the north on a heading of 181.0°, intercepting the glide path at 3 nm and 1,823 ft agl.

Landing on runway 18R, which is 3,526 m long, was executed with a threshold speed of 130 kt. The aircraft touched down 373 m beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 126 kt, a little fast, and with a touchdown rate of minus 215 fpm. The touchdown point was misaligned by 19.6 m from the centreline. Weather at the airport was temperature 20 °C, wind 6 kt from 160°, giving a crosswind component of 2 kt and a headwind component of 5 kt. Total landing distance measured 1,494 m, 42 % of the runway.

Runway rollout showed a further alignment deviation of 24.4 m from the centreline before the aircraft exited the runway.

The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 7 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nm.

In total, the flight covered 876 nm, taking 137 and consuming 12,239 kg of fuel.
