See Departure Roll

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.

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.

Reached 35 ft with 347 m of runway left; then climbing at 830 fpm on average to 385 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.

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.

Inside the speed band all the way, between −6 kt and +20 kt on the approach speed of 60 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 with the nose 3° left of the track, 5° of bank.

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 53 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 6 s, an average deceleration of 0.23 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.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking area to the runway, which took approximately 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Cessna C182, then departed from runway 10 at KCDW Essex County Airport. The takeoff distance was 275 meters, which accounted for 33% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 64 knots, and the local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 25°C and no wind.

As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it began its enroute climb from 563 feet above sea level to 2,354 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,791 feet in just 3 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles. The climb started overhead North Caldwell, New Jersey. Following the climb, the aircraft began its enroute descent from 2,465 feet above sea level to 825 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,640 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles. The descent started 1 mile east of East Hanover, New Jersey.

The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 3 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. This cruise phase began overhead Florham Park, New Jersey. The final approach to runway 05 at KMMU Morristown Municipal Airport was made from the southwest, with a heading of 35.0° at an altitude of 154 feet above ground level and 0 nautical miles from the runway.

The landing on runway 05 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 85 meters, which was good. The touchdown speed was 52 knots, and the touchdown rate was firm at -349 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the local weather conditions remained favorable, with a temperature of 24°C and no wind.

Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, which took approximately 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 10 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 15 minutes. The aircraft used 5 kilograms of fuel during the flight. Overall, the flight was successful, with good performance and favorable weather conditions.
