See Arrival Touchdown

Ground effect becomes significant below about one wingspan of height. A Cessna 172, with a 36 ft span, enters ground effect at flare height - the float it feels in the hold-off is ground effect arriving on cue. An A320, with a span around 117 ft, has been in ground effect since before the threshold and there is no sudden cushion to feel, only a gradual reduction in induced drag that lengthens any float you allow.

Speed and pitch

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

Lifted off at 67 kt with 3.4° 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.

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

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 crosswind

4 kt across from the left, which takes about 6° of crab to hold the centreline at 39 kt. Touched down with the nose 6° right of the track, away from the wind, wings level.

Wind 045° at 5 kt · 3 kt head · 4 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 37 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 3 s, an average deceleration of 0.13 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.

Sink and pitch — through the flare, lined up with the side view.

The sink went from 480 fpm at 47 ft to 280 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 1.4° 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.

How to read this

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 a departure roll from runway 36 at EDFB Reichelsheim Airfield, where the Asobo LS8 18 aircraft took off with a takeoff distance of 302 meters, which is 25% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 67 knots. At the time of departure, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 4 knots at 56 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 2 knots.

As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb overhead Reichelsheim, Hessen, Germany, rising from an altitude of 1,419 feet above sea level to 3,434 feet above sea level, an increase of 2,015 feet in just 2 minutes, while covering a distance of 1 nautical mile. Following this, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 21 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles.

The enroute descent phase began overhead Florstadt, Hessen, Germany, where the aircraft descended from 2,847 feet above sea level to 1,652 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,195 feet in 2 minutes, while covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which lasted for 2 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile.

The final descent phase began overhead Florstadt, Hessen, Germany, where the aircraft descended from 1,704 feet above sea level to 532 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,172 feet in 2 minutes, while covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then began its final approach to landing at Reichelsheim Airfield, descending from 85 feet above ground level to 0 feet above ground level in 15 seconds.
