Plan view the roll down the 3,006 m runway.

Rolled from 431 m in, drifted left of the centreline, 6 m at the widest, and lifted off 5.9 m left. Airborne 43 % 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.

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.

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 figure at liftoff is the pitch then. 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.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 4 nm to 0.5 nm, then not again: low from 0.5 nm and left of the centreline from 0.3 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.

On the glideslope from 4 nm to 0.5 nm, then low to the threshold (up to 90 ft under).

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.

Inside the 1° band from 4 nm to 0.3 nm, then 12 m left of it from 0.3 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.

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.

Crossed the threshold at 14 ft, 36 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 107 m in, 198 m short of 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 stayed between 470 fpm and 540 fpm from 13 ft to the runway. The pitch barely changed. Into 13 ft at 136 kt, on the 136 kt approach speed, and 137 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.

Touched down 13 m left of the centreline, and steered back to 3.4 m left by the end of the rollout. Little crosswind (2 kt): nothing to correct for. Touched down with the nose 2° 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.

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 flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 8 minutes and covered a distance of 4 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 787-9, then departed from runway 21 at DIAP Félix-Houphouët-Boigny International Airport in Abidjan, Ivory Coast. The takeoff distance was 868 meters, which accounted for 29% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 151 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 30 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 5 knots from a direction of 210 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 5 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, which started overhead the airport and took the aircraft up to a height of 35,837 feet above sea level. This climb phase covered a distance of 65 nautical miles and took 13 minutes, with the aircraft increasing its altitude by 34,760 feet.

Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 9 minutes and covered a distance of 66 nautical miles. This phase started 11 miles east of DITI Tiapoum Airport in Tiapoum, Ivory Coast. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 15 miles northeast of Aboso in Ghana. This descent phase took the aircraft down from a height of 36,355 feet to 2,428 feet above sea level, a decrease of 33,927 feet in 27 minutes, covering a distance of 102 nautical miles.

The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which lasted for 3 minutes and covered a distance of 9 nautical miles. This phase started 6 miles north of Tema in Ghana. The final approach to runway 21 at DGAA Kotoka International Airport in Accra, Ghana, was made from the north, with the aircraft heading 202.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,271 feet above ground level.

The landing on runway 21 was successful, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 137 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown distance was 105 meters, and the touchdown rate was firm at -362 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 13.3 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 29 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 4 knots from a direction of 259 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 2 knots.

The total landing distance was 972 meters, which accounted for 32% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 12.9 meters from the centerline. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 251 nautical miles, and the flight took 60 minutes to complete. The aircraft used 4,907 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
