Next time

Slow the descent speed

See Enroute Descent

Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering it.

Speed and pitch

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

Lifted off at 77 kt with 10.4° of pitch.

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 shaded stretch is Climb 3, the part of the climb scored on holding the climb speed.

Reached 35 ft with 3,309 ft of runway left; then climbing at 1,780 fpm on average to 726 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 shaded stretch is Climb 3, scored on its average speed against the target.

Rolled from 94 ft in, drifted right of the centreline, 15 ft at the widest, and lifted off 15 ft right, in 6 kn of crosswind from the right. Airborne 16 % 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.

The final from 4 nm.

Profile height against the 2.5° glideslope, with its 1° band in green.

High from 0.8 nm, where the final began, to 0.4 nm (up to 160 ft over), then back on it to the threshold.

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, 1,000 ft past the threshold: 2.5° here, which is about 270 ft for every nautical mile out, crossing the threshold at about 40 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.

Plan distance off the extended centreline, your left at the top, with the 1° band. Sideways distances are drawn 3× larger than distances along the final.

Joined 1,300 ft left of the centreline at 0.8 nm.

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 32 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 18 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Fast from 0.8 nm, where the final began, to the threshold (up to +23 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.

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 64 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 9 s, an average deceleration of 0.22 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.

Crossed the threshold at 5 ft, 45 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 574 ft in, 426 ft short of the ideal 1,000 ft.

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 3,004 ft across. The dashed line is the ideal, 50 ft over the threshold and down 1,000 ft 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.

From 5 ft the descent stopped and turned into a climb of 130 fpm before coming down at 260 fpm to touch. The nose came up 2.9° 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.

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.

Flight narrative

The flight began with the Horten Ho229 taxiing from the parking area to the runway at KSFZ North Central State Airport, taking approximately 3 minutes to cover less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 23, with a takeoff distance of 724 feet, which accounted for 14% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 77 knots.

As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions of 38°F temperature and a wind speed of 9 knots at 260°. The crosswind and headwind components were both 6 knots. The enroute climb started overhead KSFZ North Central State Airport, with the aircraft ascending from 1,284 feet above sea level to 3,349 feet, an increase of 2,065 feet in just 1 minute, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles.

The enroute level cruise began overhead Lincoln, Rhode Island, and lasted for 2 minutes, during which the aircraft covered 11 nautical miles. The enroute descent started 2 miles southeast of Seekonk, Massachusetts, with the aircraft descending from 2,874 feet above sea level to 492 feet, a decrease of 2,383 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 18 nautical miles.

The enroute climb resumed overhead Newport, Rhode Island, with the aircraft ascending from 476 feet above sea level to 291 feet, an increase of 185 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 22 at KUUU Newport State Airport was made from the northeast, heading 206.0° at an altitude of 129 feet above ground level.

The landing on runway 22 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 563 feet, which was good. The touchdown speed was 72 knots, and the touchdown rate was fair at -258 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 12 feet from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 39°F temperature and a wind speed of 12 knots at 250°, with crosswind and headwind components of 8 knots each.

The total landing distance was 1,179 feet, which accounted for 39% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing from the runway to the parking area took less than 1 minute to cover less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 36 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 11 minutes, during which the aircraft used 126 pounds of fuel.
