Next time

Departure

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

What happened: Bank increased to 3.4° during the initial climb, and wings stayed over-banked at 9.1° into the next climb segment.

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

See Departure Climb 2Departure Climb 3

Turn speed is limited by lateral load on the tyres and the people in the back, and lateral acceleration goes with the square of speed. On an illustrative 25 m turn radius, 10 kt produces about 0.11 g of side load, while 20 kt produces about 0.43 g. Doubling the speed quadruples the load. That square law is the entire content of the "10 knots in turns" rule, and it tells you why a slightly-too-fast turn feels fine and a moderately-too-fast one throws the cabin crew across the galley.

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

Lifted off at 93 kt with −0.6° 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.

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.

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.

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 crosswind

No crosswind: nothing to correct for. Touched down with the nose 3° left of the track, wings level.

Wind 270° at 1 kt · 1 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 76 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 15 s, an average deceleration of 0.18 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 1,524 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.

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

This flight was conducted in a DA62 aircraft, departing from runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport. Taxiing from the parking area to the runway took less than a minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The departure roll began, and the aircraft lifted off the ground at a speed of 93 knots, utilizing 37% of the runway's length, which was 667 meters.

The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 16°C and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 274°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and headwind, with both being 1 knot. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile northwest of Croy, Highland, Scotland, and rising from an altitude of 875 feet above sea level to 1,073 feet, an increase of 198 feet, in less than a minute and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, lasting 2 minutes and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile, while flying 1 mile west of Croy. The final approach to runway 05 at EGPE Inverness Airport was initiated from the southwest, with the aircraft heading at 50.0° and flying at an altitude of 96 feet above ground level.

The landing was executed smoothly, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 75 knots and a touchdown rate of -121 feet per minute. The touchdown distance was 205 meters, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 20°C and a wind speed of 3 knots from a direction of 228°, resulting in a negligible crosswind and a tailwind of 3 knots.

The total landing distance was 576 meters, which accounted for 32% of the runway's length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The total flight distance was 3 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 4 minutes, with the aircraft consuming 0 kilograms of fuel.
