What held you back

Departure Climb 3 — Landing gear up at 655 ft agl at 57 %, −1.06 points
Departure Roll — Rotation speed was 143 kt at 91 %, −0.14 points

Next time

Departure

Raise the gear lever promptly once a positive climb is confirmed, before reaching the target retraction height.

What happened: Gear retraction was delayed, with the gear not coming up until 655 ft agl.

Watch for: Landing gear: up by the normal retraction gate

See Departure Climb 3

Arrival

Hold the approach aim point and let the aircraft settle onto 457 m instead of holding it off in the flare.

What happened: Touchdown point came 53 m past the target, landing at 510 m against the 457 m aim point, with threshold speed and the flare both within limits.

Watch for: Touchdown distance marker: 457 m from the threshold.

See Arrival Touchdown

Make sure that you retract the landing gear once you have a positive rate of climb and there is no usable runway left to land back on.

Speed and pitch

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

Rotated at 143 kt, 19 kt above the 124 kt target, and lifted off at 160 kt 3.0 s later, the nose coming up at 1.7° a second. Climb 3 averaged 184 kt, 20 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 972 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 1,379 m of runway left; gear up at 655 ft, 255 ft past the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 2,210 fpm on average to 972 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.

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.

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 4 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.

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 110 ft above 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.

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 flare98.59

Excellent landing flare. It lost 1.4 points, for touching down 6.0° above the aircraft's ground attitude.

The crosswind

3 kt across from the left, which takes about 1° of crab to hold the centreline at 118 kt. Touched down with the nose 2° into wind, wings level.

Wind 059° at 8 kt · 7 kt head · 3 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 55 ft, close to the 50 ft target; began the flare at 17 ft. Touched down 510 m in, 205 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.

The sink went from 500 fpm at the flare to 130 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 1.5° 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 departed from runway 08R at EDDP Leipzig/Halle Airport. Take-off was performed on a 1 912 m runway, using 53 % of its length. Rotation occurred at 143 kt. Local weather at departure was 15 °C with wind 10 kt from 060°, giving a 5 kt cross-wind component and a 9 kt head-wind component.

Initial climb to 1 000 ft agl took 24 seconds, averaging 1 932 fpm and reaching 190 kt at the top of the climb. This was followed by three short climbs, descents and level legs between 1 500 ft asl and 3 000 ft asl for about five minutes, covering 15 nm from a point 1 mile north-east of Schkeuditz to overhead Zweimen.

During final approach to runway 08R at EDDP, the aircraft descended from 1 358 ft agl to 68 ft agl in 118 seconds. Stabilisation checks were performed at 1 000 ft and 500 ft above the runway and were met for gear down, landing flap, sink rate, glideslope, centreline, speed and wings level. The landing gear was lowered at 2 105 ft agl while the aircraft was at 191 kt. The final flap position 5 was selected at 1 314 ft agl with a speed of 153 kt.

The aircraft landed on runway 08R, which is 3 587 m long. The threshold height was good and the threshold speed was 123 kt. The flare was described as perfect. Touchdown occurred 87 m beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 118 kt, noted as a little fast, with a smooth vertical rate of minus 131 fpm. Runway touchdown alignment was perfect. Local weather at landing was 13 °C with wind 9 kt from 060°, giving a 4 kt cross-wind component and an 8 kt head-wind component. No bounce was observed.

The total flight covered 21 nm in 7 minutes and consumed 285 kg of fuel.
