What went well

Touchdown 509 ft in — inside the full-score zone
Threshold crossed at 24 ft and 91 kt — both inside band
Straight touchdown — 9.4 ft off the centreline, no bounce

What held you back

Arrival Approach — GPWS warning; 1,000 ft gate 86 %, 500 ft gate 71 %, −1.43 points
Departure Roll — Rotation speed was 126 kt at 32 %, −0.91 points
Arrival Rollout — Runway alignment max 41.7 ft right at 76 %, −0.71 points

Next time

Departure

Start bringing the nose up as the speed reaches 91 kt, not after it.

What happened: You started the rotation at 126 kt, 35 kt past the 91 kt rotation speed.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 91 kt at rotation

See Departure Roll

Arrival

Use small rudder inputs against a point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline during rollout.

What happened: During the rollout the aircraft drifted 42 ft off the centreline.

Watch for: Runway centreline marks: hold the aircraft tracking straight down the centreline through rollout

See Arrival 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.

The pull started after the rotate speed had gone by. Bring the airspeed into the scan as it approaches the rotate speed, so the pull starts on the number rather than when you notice it has passed.

Plan view the roll down the 12,346 ft runway.

Rolled from 140 ft in, drifted 9 ft left of the centreline and was back on it to lift off. Airborne 31 % 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.

Side view from the start of the roll to the end of Climb 3 at 977 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 7,505 ft of runway left; gear up at 73 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 2,390 fpm on average to 977 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 dark stretch of the roll is the run with the nose up and the wheels still on, with its length and time under the runway. The gear-up ring is coloured by its mark. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, scored on its average speed against the target.

Speed and pitch from brake release to the end of the climb, against time.

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 grey band is the run between the nose coming up and the wheels leaving the runway. The figures at liftoff are the pitch then and how fast the nose came up, in degrees a second. The grey dashed line across the pitch is the attitude held from 35 ft to the end: a nose held steady is a climb speed that holds, and the airspeed trace sits directly above it to compare. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, the part of the climb scored on holding the climb speed.

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.

At the 500 ft gate: sink rate more than 600 fpm beyond what the glideslope needed and speed more than 26 kt above the approach speed of 87 kt.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 0.3 nm, about 90 ft above the runway, to the threshold, after the 500 ft gate.

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.

On the glideslope from 4 nm to 2.9 nm, then high to 1.7 nm (up to 690 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, 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 3× larger than distances along the final.

Outside the 1° band 3 times; furthest 640 ft left at 2.2 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.

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 flare mostly held the target profile

The flare was pumped rather than held: pitch changed direction 4 times on the way down. Touchdown was 509 ft past the threshold. One smooth continuous input - chasing the runway with the elevator makes the next correction bigger, not smaller.

Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.

Began the flare at 36 ft, 192 ft before the threshold; crossed the threshold at 24 ft, 26 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 509 ft in, 491 ft short of 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 600 fpm at the flare to 220 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 1.9° on the way down. Into the flare at 92 kt, 5 kt over the 87 kt approach speed, and 88 kt at touchdown.

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.

Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 8,599 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.

Touched down 9 ft left of the centreline and drifted to 42 ft right on the rollout, back to 9 ft right by the end. Little crosswind (1 kt): nothing to correct for. Touched down with the nose 5° right of the track, wings level.

How to read this

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. 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. The sentence gives the nose against the direction you were actually moving as the wheels touched, and the steepest bank as they touched, the figure the touchdown's Bank tile marks. The rest of it is shown for reading, not marked.

The stop — touchdown to taxi speed.

From 81 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 13 s, an average deceleration of 0.20 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.

Flight narrative

The aircraft departed KLAS Harry Reid International Airport on runway 08L. Take-off used 3,935 ft, 32 % of the runway, and rotation occurred at 126 kt. Local weather was 79 °F with wind 8 kt from 100°, giving a 1 kt crosswind and an 8 kt headwind.

Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl lasted 21 seconds, averaging 2,122 fpm and reaching 118 kt at the top. The climb continued from 3,206 ft asl to 30,007 ft asl in 21 minutes, covering 67 nm and beginning 1 mile south-east of Paradise. Cruise was level at 30,000 ft asl for 52 minutes, covering 234 nm and starting 10 miles south-west of Pahrump. Descent from 30,006 ft asl to 1,802 ft asl took 29 minutes, covering 101 nm and beginning 4 miles south-east of M45 Alpine County Markleeville.

Final approach to runway 17R at KSMF Sacramento International Airport descended from 1,779 ft agl to 70 ft agl in 113 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway were met for gear down, landing flap, glideslope, and wings level; they were not met for sink rate (one gate), centreline (one gate), and speed (one gate). Gear was lowered at 2,420 ft agl at 141 kt. Final flap position 2 was selected at 273 ft agl at 134 kt.

Landing on runway 17R, which is 8,599 ft long, had a good threshold height. Threshold speed was slightly above target at 92 kt. The flare was described as good, though the pitch was pumped up and down. Touchdown occurred 508 ft from the threshold at 88 kt, a little fast, with a fair rate of -221 fpm. The touchdown point was slightly misaligned by 11 ft from the centreline; no bounce occurred. Total landing distance was 1,863 ft, 22 % of the runway, and rollout alignment was slightly off by 42 ft from the centreline.

Local weather at KSMF was 68 °F with wind 8 kt from 170°, giving a 1 kt crosswind and an 8 kt headwind. After landing, taxiing to the parking area took 4 minutes and covered less than 1 nm. The entire flight covered 412 nm in 117 minutes and used 753 lb of fuel.
