What went well

Touched down at -118 fpm — a soft arrival
Touchdown 1,633 ft in — inside the full-score zone
Straight touchdown — 11.7 ft off the centreline, no bounce

What held you back

Arrival Landing — Threshold height at 69 ft agl was above target at 70 %, Threshold speed was a little below target at 75 kt at 84 %, −0.84 points
Arrival Taxi — Taxi Lights at 9 %, −0.30 points

Next time

Arrival

Fly a steeper descent on final so you cross the threshold at 50 ft.

What happened: You crossed the threshold at 69 ft agl, above the 50 ft agl target. Crossing high like this usually reduces your margin before the touchdown zone ends.

Watch for: Radio altimeter against 50 ft at the threshold.

See Arrival Landing

Even a modest height error carries straight through to the touchdown. Geometry alone says that crossing the threshold 10 feet high on a 3° path moves your touchdown roughly 190 feet further down the runway before the flare adds anything.

The nose wandered in the climb

From 35 ft to the end of the climb the nose moved between 4.2° and 14.7°, and the speed between 99 kt and 125 kt.

Once clear of the runway the nose moved through a wide range, and the speed moved with it. Set the climb attitude, hold it and trim, and give the speed a few seconds to settle before correcting it with a degree or two of pitch. Chasing the airspeed with large pitch changes makes it wander more.

Plan view the roll down the 7,770 ft runway.

Rolled from 224 ft in, drifted 24 ft left of the centreline and was back on it to lift off, in 8 kn of crosswind from the left. Airborne 20 % 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.

Side view from the start of the roll to the end of Climb 3 at 1,018 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 5,593 ft of runway left; gear up at 63 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 1,530 fpm on average to 1,018 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 dark stretch of the roll is the run with the nose up and the wheels still on, with its length and time under the runway. The gear-up ring is coloured by its mark. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, scored on its average speed against the target.

Speed and pitch from brake release to the end of the climb, against time.

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 dashed green line is the speed to rotate at for this aircraft at its weight, and the green dot is where the nose started to come up. The grey band is the run between the nose coming up and the wheels leaving the runway. The figures at liftoff are the pitch then and how fast the nose came up, in degrees a second. The grey dashed line across the pitch is the attitude held from 35 ft to the end: a nose held steady is a climb speed that holds, and the airspeed trace sits directly above it to compare. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, the part of the climb scored on holding the climb speed.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 0.5 nm, about 190 ft above the runway, to the threshold, after the 500 ft gate. The last to settle was the speed.

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.

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, 1,000 ft 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.

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.

Side view — the last 8,697 ft of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 68 ft, 18 ft above the 50 ft target; began the flare at 37 ft. Touched down 1,633 ft in, 633 ft past the ideal 1,000 ft.

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 8,697 ft across. The dashed line is the ideal, 50 ft over the threshold and down 1,000 ft 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.

Touched down 12 ft left of the centreline, and stayed about there down the rollout, 16 ft left at the widest. 7 kt across from the left, which takes about 6° of crab to hold the centreline at 65 kt. Touched down straight - the crab taken out before the wheels touched, wings level.

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. 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. The sentence gives the nose against the direction you were actually moving as the wheels touched, and the steepest bank as they touched, the figure the touchdown's Bank tile marks. The rest of it is shown for reading, not marked.

From 66 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 88 s, an average deceleration of 0.02 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.

Flight narrative

The GroundStopFS departed PAYA Yakutat Airport on runway 11. The take-off roll was 1,650 ft, 21 % of the runway, and rotation occurred at 96 kt. Local weather was 44 °F with a 15 kt wind from 100°, giving a 9 kt crosswind and a 12 kt headwind.

Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl took 37 seconds, averaging 1,387 fpm and reaching 125 kt at the top. The aircraft then climbed from 1,063 ft asl to 30,012 ft asl in 19 minutes, covering 68 nm while remaining overhead PAYA. Level cruise at 30,000 ft asl lasted 35 minutes and covered 186 nm, beginning 8 nm south of 19AK Icy Bay Airport.

Descent began at 29,588 ft asl and proceeded to 1,432 ft asl in 25 minutes, covering 108 nm, starting 13 nm east of PYL Perry Island Seaplane Base, with a brief level-off at 5,000 ft asl.

Final approach to runway 07R at PANC Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport descended from 1,343 ft agl to 94 ft agl in 152 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway were met for gear down, landing flap, sink rate, glideslope, centreline, speed and wings level. Configuration was landing gear down at 2,362 ft agl and 163 kt; final flap position 2 was selected at 892 ft agl and 105 kt.

Landing on runway 07R (runway length 12,350 ft) had a threshold height of 69 ft agl, which was above target, and a threshold speed of 75 kt, a little below target. The flare was described as excellent. Touchdown occurred 196 ft beyond the touchdown zone at 65 kt, with a smooth rate of -118 fpm. The touchdown point was 12 ft off the centreline. Local weather was 34 °F with a 12 kt wind from 349°, a 12 kt crosswind and a 2 kt tailwind. No bounce was observed. Total landing distance was 8,353 ft, 68 % of the runway, and rollout alignment was very good.

Taxiing from the runway to parking took 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nm. The flight covered 369 nm in 89 minutes and used 638 lb of fuel.
