See Arrival Approach

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.

Touchdown was 81 m past the threshold. Hold the attitude and let it settle rather than pushing - a balloon is almost always excess speed, so the fix is on the approach, not in the flare.

Speed and pitch

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

Lifted off at 162 kt with 5.6° of pitch. Climb 3 averaged 323 kt, 36 kt over its 287 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 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 885 ft. The distance scale changes past the runway end.

Reached 35 ft with 172 m of runway left; gear up at 52 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 3,550 fpm on average to 885 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.

Plan view the roll down the 960 m runway.

Rolled from the start of the runway, drifted 6.2 m left of the centreline and was back on it to lift off, in 5 kn of crosswind from the left. Airborne 56 % 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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.

At the 1,000 ft gate: gear still up, no landing flap set, centreline more than 1° off and speed more than 31 kt above the approach speed of 125 kt.

At the 500 ft gate: no landing flap set, glideslope more than 1° off the runway's 3°, centreline more than 1° off, wings more than 10° from level and speed more than 19 kt above the approach speed of 125 kt.

When the approach was stable

Never every check met at once: no landing flap all the way, fast all the way, gear up until 2.3 nm, high until 0.8 nm, right of the centreline until 0.8 nm, banked until 0.5 nm, sinking too fast from 1.1 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.

On the glideslope from 4 nm to 2.3 nm, then high to 0.8 nm (up to 360 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, 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.

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 1,685 m left of the centreline, then drifted 296 m right between 2.1 and 0.8 nm, then inside the band from 0.8 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 31 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 19 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Fast from 4 nm to the threshold (up to +230 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 flare43.59

The flare strayed well off the target profile. Crossing the threshold 87 kt above target, the flare took all the sink out 1 ft agl above the runway and the aircraft then dropped the rest of the way, 198 fpm of sink coming back. Touchdown was 81 m past the threshold. Hold the attitude and let it settle rather than pushing - a balloon is almost always excess speed, so the fix is on the approach, not in the flare.

The crosswind

7 kt across from the right, which takes about 2° of crab to hold the centreline at 207 kt. Touched down with 2° of it still on, wings level.

Wind 309° at 23 kt · 22 kt head · 7 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 960 m of the approach.

Began the flare at 29 ft, 25 m before the threshold; crossed the threshold at 23 ft, 27 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 81 m in, 224 m short of 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 960 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 3,120 fpm at the flare to 980 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 3.4° 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.

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

Departing Tobermory Airport, the Boeing F/A-18E taxied to runway 12 and initiated the departure roll. The aircraft accelerated down the 541-meter runway, utilizing 56% of its length, before lifting off at a speed of 163 knots. The local weather conditions presented a moderate wind, with a tailwind component of 16 knots, which contributed to the reduced takeoff distance.

As the aircraft transitioned into the enroute climb phase, it began ascending from 1,693 feet above sea level to 1,737 feet, a gain of 44 feet over a period of one minute. The climb was initiated approximately one mile east of the departure airport and covered a distance of 10 nautical miles. Later in the flight, the aircraft encountered a situation requiring a go-around, executing the maneuver at an altitude of 32 feet above ground level on runway 30.

Upon re-establishing the final approach to runway 30, the aircraft maintained a heading of 279.0 degrees and descended from 685 feet above ground level to touch down on the 960-meter runway. The touchdown speed of 207 knots was higher than optimal, resulting in a heavy touchdown rate of -1,323 feet per minute. The total landing distance of 814 meters, or 85% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied off the runway, with a slight deviation from the centerline of 12.8 meters. The flight utilized a total of 89 nautical miles of distance and 1,836 kilograms of fuel.
