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 9.7 m off the runway centreline.

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

See Departure Roll

Arrival

Begin the flare with progressive back pressure and keep it coming until the sink is arrested, rather than flying it on flat.

What happened: The nose was barely raised in the flare and little of the sink was taken out, flying the aircraft onto the runway. This pattern usually carries through to a firm touchdown with a noticeable sink rate.

Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: a smoothly reducing sink through the normal flare band, not a steady rate into the runway.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

Trim is the hidden variable. In trim, the flare is a small refinement to an aircraft already in equilibrium, a couple of millimetres of stick. Out of trim, you're holding a constant force all the way down final, and the flare becomes a large, badly judged movement stacked on top of a load you're already carrying. A striking proportion of "I can't judge the flare" complaints are trim complaints wearing a disguise. If you're holding pressure at 500 feet, fix that before you practise anything else.

Speed and pitch

From brake release to the end of the climb, against time, then the takeoff point by point.

Rotated at 148 kt, on the 148 kt target, and lifted off at 159 kt 3.0 s later, the nose coming up at 2.8° a second. Climb 3 averaged 174 kt, 10 kt over its 164 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 927 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 2,322 m of runway left; gear up at 78 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 2,700 fpm on average to 927 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.

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.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 2.6 nm, about 860 ft above the runway, to the threshold, after the 1,000 ft gate and before the 500 ft gate. The last to settle was the speed.

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 OTHH 34R

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

Profile height against the 3° glideslope, with its 1° band in green.

Inside the glideslope band from 4 nm to the threshold, never more than 50 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.

Inside the 1° band all the way from 4 nm, never more than 5 m off the centreline.

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 34 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 20 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Fast from 4 nm to 2.6 nm (up to +50 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 flare61.76

The flare wandered off the target profile. The aircraft was flown onto the runway - pitch changed 2.4° and the descent was barely arrested. Touchdown was 607 m past the threshold. Start the flare with progressive back pressure rather than one pull, and keep it coming.

The crosswind

No crosswind: nothing to correct for. Touched down straight, wings level.

Wind 336° at 4 kt · 4 kt head · 0 kt across

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.

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

Crossed the threshold at 66 ft, 16 ft above the 50 ft target; began the flare at 35 ft. Touched down 607 m in, 302 m past 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 490 fpm at the flare to 380 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 2.3° on the way down.

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 Airbus A320-ceo taxied from the parking area to runway 31L at OMAA Zayed International Airport in 8 minutes, covering 3 nm.

Take-off was performed on runway 31L. The aircraft used 1,496 m of runway (36 % of the available length) and rotated at 148 kt. Local weather was 36 °C with a wind of 4 kt from 300°, giving a 1 kt cross-wind component and a 4 kt head-wind component.

Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl lasted 17 seconds, averaging 2,638 fpm and reaching 178 kt at the top of the segment. The climb continued from 1,062 ft asl to 20,009 ft asl in 12 minutes, covering 62 nm, with brief level-offs at 6,000 ft and 10,000 ft asl.

Cruise was level at 20,000 ft asl for 3 minutes, covering 23 nm, beginning about 25 nm south-east of OMAZ Zirku Airport.

Descent began at 19,990 ft asl and proceeded to 1,307 ft asl in 22 minutes, covering 120 nm. The descent started 7 nm south of OMAZ Zirku Airport and included a brief level-off at 18,100 ft asl.

Final approach to runway 34R at OTHH Hamad International Airport descended from 1,331 ft agl to 99 ft agl in 92 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway were met for gear down, landing flap, sink rate, glideslope, centreline and wings level; the speed check was not met at one gate. The landing gear was down at 1,139 ft agl with a speed of 188 kt, and the final flap position 5 was selected at 576 ft agl with a speed of 152 kt.

Landing on runway 34R (length 4,864 m) had a threshold height of 66 ft agl, which was above target, while the threshold speed of 134 kt was good. The flare was described as a fair landing flare with little round-out. Touchdown occurred 176 m beyond the touchdown zone at 129 kt, a little fast, with a firm rate of -380 fpm and perfect runway alignment. One bounce was recorded on touchdown.

The aircraft rolled out over a distance of 1,316 m (27 % of the runway) with perfect alignment, then taxied to the parking area in 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.

The total flight covered 214 nm in 49 minutes and used 2,082 kg of fuel.
