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.

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 stabilisation gates

One stabilised approach gate: seven checks where the approach path is 300 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.

At the 300 ft gate: centreline more than 1° off and wings more than 10° from level.

When the approach was stable

Never every check met at once: right of the centreline all the way and banked until 0.8 nm.

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.

Inside the glideslope band from 1.0 nm, where the final began, 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.

Inside the speed band all the way, between +8 kt and +11 kt on the approach speed of 73 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.

The crosswind

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

Wind 270° at 1 kt · 0 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 60 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 15 s, an average deceleration of 0.12 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.

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 1,199 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 480 fpm at 23 ft to 50 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 4.5° 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

Aircraft operations commenced at EGNE Retford Gamston Airport, where a Sierra C24R taxied from the parking area to runway 21 in under a minute, covering a short distance of less than 1 nautical mile. Following a smooth departure roll, the aircraft lifted off the runway after a takeoff distance of 197 meters, which accounted for 16% of the available runway length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 66 knots, as the aircraft transitioned from the ground to the air.

As the aircraft climbed to a safe altitude, it entered a level cruise phase, which began overhead Elkesley in Nottinghamshire, England. This phase lasted for 3 minutes and covered a distance of 5 nautical miles. The aircraft then commenced its final approach to runway 03 at EGNE Retford Gamston Airport, descending from an altitude of 339 feet above ground level (agl) and heading 13.0° from the south. The landing was executed with a threshold speed well above the target at 82 knots, resulting in a touchdown distance of 386 meters, which was within acceptable limits. The touchdown speed of 60 knots and the touchdown rate of -38 feet per minute (fpm) were also satisfactory.

Following a successful landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in under a minute, covering a short distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 7 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 5 minutes. Fuel consumption was recorded at 2 kilograms. The landing distance of 713 meters accounted for 59% of the available runway length, and the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 14.5 meters from the centreline.
