What went well

Touchdown 318 m in — inside the full-score zone
Straight touchdown — 2.71 m off the centreline, no bounce
Flare on profile — 100 %

What held you back

Departure Roll — Landing Lights at 0 %, Strobe Lights at 0 %, −0.67 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown rate was -203 fpm at 82 %, −0.30 points
Arrival Landing — Threshold speed was a little below target at 77 kt at 90 %, −0.21 points

Next time

Arrival

Add power on final to keep the approach speed at 86 kt rather than letting it decay before the threshold.

What happened: The aircraft crossed the threshold at 77 kt, 9 kt below the target, and touchdown followed with a firm, high sink rate arrival. Crossing the threshold slow like this usually carries through to a firmer touchdown as the flare runs out of energy.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 86 kt at the threshold.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

The rudder input is a changing profile through the roll rather than one that is held. So the demand on your right foot starts large at power application, eases as speed builds and the rudder gains authority, then jumps again at rotation.

A clean takeoff

Rotated at 82 kt against the 81 kt rotate speed, the nose rising at 2.2° a second, then held 7.8° from 35 ft, within 5.1° top to bottom.

Rotated on speed at a steady rate, and the climb attitude held. This is the takeoff to repeat: the same speed check, the same pull, the same attitude.

Plan view the roll down the 2,025 m runway.

Rolled from 1,013 m in, drifted right of the centreline, 3.8 m at the widest, and lifted off 3.4 m right. Airborne 71 % 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 826 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 167 m of runway left; gear up at 28 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 1,200 fpm on average to 826 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

One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 300 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.

On speed−2.2 kt

Still turning onto final at the lower gate, so the centreline and wings level are not asked there - the aeroplane was not lined up yet, and was banked because it was turning. The other checks are marked as usual.

When the approach was stable

Never every check met at once: left of the centreline until 0.4 nm, slow from 0.8 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 UBBG 12

The final from 4 nm, with the stabilisation gates on it.

Profile height against the 3° glideslope, with its 2° band in green.

Inside the glideslope band from 1.2 nm, where the final began, to the threshold, never more than 150 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 43 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 26 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Inside the speed band from 1.2 nm, where the final began, to 0.8 nm, then slow to the threshold (up to −11 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.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.

Began the flare at 44 ft, 70 m before the threshold; crossed the threshold at 29 ft, 21 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 318 m in, close to the ideal 305 m.

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.

Sink and pitch — through the flare, lined up with the side view.

The sink went from 570 fpm at the flare to 200 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 6.1° on the way down. Into the flare at 78 kt, 8 kt under the 86 kt approach speed, and 69 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 1,524 m of the 3,292 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.

Touched down 2.7 m left of the centreline and drifted to 9.3 m left on the rollout. 3 kt across from the left, which takes about 2° of crab to hold the centreline at 69 kt. Touched down with the nose 3° into wind, 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 66 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 15 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.

Flight narrative

The Pilatus PC-12 taxied from the parking area to runway 05 at UDKS Stepanakert International Airport in 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.

Take-off was performed on runway 05 with a distance of 1,466 m, which was 72 % of the runway length. Rotation occurred at 82 kt. Local weather at departure was temperature 5 °C, wind 4 kt from 093°, giving a 2 kt crosswind and a 3 kt headwind.

The initial climb to 1,000 ft agl took 37 seconds, averaging 1,124 fpm and reaching 126 kt at the top of the climb. The aircraft then climbed from 2,894 ft asl to 6,020 ft asl in 2 minutes, covering 5 nm, beginning 1 mile east of Xocali.

Cruise was level at 6,000 ft asl for 10 minutes, covering 39 nm, starting 2 miles west of Agdam.

Descent began from 5,975 ft asl to 1,222 ft asl in 7 minutes, covering 19 nm, starting 3 miles south-west of Qazanbulaq.

Final approach to runway 12 at UBBG Ganja International Airport descended from 345 ft agl to 54 ft agl in 56 seconds. At 500 ft above the runway the stabilisation checks were met: gear down, landing flap, sink rate, on glideslope, on speed. Configuration on final was flap position 1 at 914 ft agl with a speed of 127 kt.

Landing was on runway 12, whose length is 3,292 m. The threshold height was good and the threshold speed was a little below target at 77 kt. The flare was described as excellent. Touchdown occurred 318 m down the runway at 69 kt, with a rate of -203 fpm. The touchdown point was slightly misaligned by 3.3 m from the centreline. No bounce occurred.

Total landing distance was 721 m, 22 % of the runway, and the rollout was slightly misaligned by 9.3 m from the centreline. Local weather at landing was temperature 9 °C, wind 4 kt from 080°, giving a 3 kt crosswind and a 3 kt headwind.

The flight covered 66 nm in 23 minutes and used 84 kg of fuel.
