Next time

Departure

Roll the wings level with aileron and hold bank within limits as you establish the climb.

What happened: Bank increased to 3.2° during the initial climb, and wings stayed over-banked at 1.3° into the next climb segment.

Watch for: Attitude indicator bank angle, aiming to keep it near wings-level

See Departure Climb 2Departure Climb 3

Arrival

Reduce power earlier on final to bleed speed back to 89 kt before crossing the threshold.

What happened: You crossed the threshold at 104 kt, 15 kt above the 89 kt target.

Watch for: Airspeed, targeting 89 kt at the threshold.

See Arrival Landing

Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

Speed and pitch

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

Lifted off at 97 kt with 6.0° 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.

Side view from the start of the roll to the end of Climb 3 at 929 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 858 m of runway left; then climbing at 1,450 fpm on average to 929 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.

Plan view the roll down the 1,814 m runway.

Rolled from the start of the runway, never more than 1.1 m off the centreline. Airborne 30 % 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 stabilisation gates

Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.

Wings level

At the 1,000 ft gate: sink rate more than 600 fpm beyond what the glideslope needed, centreline more than 1° off and wings more than 10° from level.

At the 500 ft gate: centreline more than 1° off.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 1.5 to 0.6 nm, then not again: fast from 0.6 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.

The approach to EGPE 23

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

Profile height against the 3° glideslope, with its 2° band in green.

Inside the glideslope band from 3.7 nm, where the final began, to the threshold, never more than 320 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.

Joined 781 m left of the centreline at 3.7 nm, then inside the band from 1.5 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.

Speed against the approach speed. The green band runs from 5 kt slow to 45 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 27 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Inside the speed band from 3.7 nm, where the final began, to 0.6 nm, then fast to the threshold (up to +17 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.

Good landing flare

The crosswind

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

Wind 043° at 2 kt · 2 kt tail · 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.

The stop

From 84 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 20 s, an average deceleration of 0.14 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.

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

Crossed the threshold at 40 ft, close to the 50 ft target. Touched down 604 m in, 299 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 740 fpm at 40 ft to 160 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 6.8° on the way down.

How to read this

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 departure roll from runway 05 at EGPE Inverness Airport, a Beechcraft Duke taking to the skies. The aircraft required a takeoff distance of 551 meters, which was 30% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 97 knots, marking the start of the flight.

As the aircraft climbed out of EGPE, it encountered local weather conditions of 18 degrees Celsius and a gentle headwind of 2 knots at 42 degrees. The enroute climb started overhead Ardersier, a small town in the Scottish Highlands, where the aircraft ascended from 845 feet above sea level to 1,226 feet in less than a minute, covering a distance of less than a nautical mile.

Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, also starting overhead Ardersier. This phase lasted for 2 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 23 at EGPE, coming in from the north-east at a heading of 241.0 degrees and at an altitude of 708 feet above ground level.

The landing was executed with precision, with the threshold speed slightly above the target at 104 knots. The touchdown point was 172 meters beyond the touchdown zone, but the touchdown speed of 76 knots was good, and the touchdown rate of -49 feet per minute was perfect. The runway touchdown alignment was also very good.

The total landing distance was 1,185 meters, which was 65% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The flight distance was 7 nautical miles, and the total flight time was 6 minutes, with no fuel being used during the flight.
