Next time

Arrival

Fly a stabilized approach and flare to touch down at the target point of 457 m.

What happened: Touchdown occurred past the normal point, landing 306 m beyond the target distance. This pattern typically reduces the margin available for stopping before the runway end.

Watch for: Watch touchdown point against the 457 m marker.

Ground control varies with speed, full authority at walking pace, progressively reducing as groundspeed rises. The aircraft becomes twitchy at any speed, every small pedal input swings the nose, which can encourage large-amplitude leg inputs that no real aircraft would accept.

Speed and pitch

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

Lifted off at 141 kt with 9.9° of pitch. Climb 3 averaged 166 kt, 10 kt under its 176 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 954 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 675 m of runway left; gear up at 70 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 1,890 fpm on average to 954 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 2,456 m runway.

Rolled from 77 m in, drifted left of the centreline, 7.7 m at the widest, and lifted off 7.8 m left, in 8 kn of crosswind from the left. Airborne 57 % 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.

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.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 4 nm to 1.0 nm, then not again: fast from 1.0 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.

The approach to KIAD 01R

The final from 4 nm, with the stabilisation gates on it.

Profile height against the 3° glideslope, with its 1° band in green.

Inside the glideslope band from 4 nm to the threshold, never more than 20 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.

Plan distance off the extended centreline, your left at the top, with the 1° band. Sideways distances are drawn 52× larger than distances along the final.

Inside the 1° band all the way from 4 nm, never more than 2 m off the centreline.

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 32 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 19 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Inside the speed band from 4 nm to 1.0 nm, then fast to the threshold (up to +19 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 flare100.00

The flare tracked the target profile exactly. Crossing the threshold 18 kt above target, the aircraft floated down the runway before touching. Touchdown was 763 m past the threshold. The flare cannot burn off excess energy - fix the approach speed and the float goes with it.

The crosswind

3 kt across from the right, which takes about 1° of crab to hold the centreline at 129 kt. Touched down with the nose 5° into wind, 2° of bank.

Wind 040° at 6 kt · 5 kt head · 3 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 126 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 17 s, an average deceleration of 0.30 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.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 74 ft, 24 ft above the 50 ft target; began the flare at 27 ft. Touched down 763 m in, 458 m past 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 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 630 fpm at the flare to 150 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 2.7° 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

The Boeing 737-700 taxied from the parking area to runway 22L at KORD Chicago O’Hare International Airport, a movement that lasted 22 minutes and covered 5 nm.

During the departure roll on runway 22L, the aircraft used a takeoff distance of 1,395 m, representing 57 % of the runway, and lifted off at 142 kt. Ambient conditions were 26 °C with a wind of 9 kt from 130°, giving a cross-wind component of 9 kt and no head-wind.

Climb commenced 1 mile southeast of Bensenville, Illinois, where the airplane ascended from 1,668 ft asl to 36,455 ft asl, a gain of 34,786 ft in 15 minutes while covering 107 nm.

The first level cruise began 1 mile east of Constantine, Michigan, lasting 32 minutes and extending over 282 nm.

Descent started 8 miles southwest of West Waynesburg, Pennsylvania, with the aircraft descending from 37,000 ft asl to 6,077 ft asl, a loss of 30,923 ft in 19 minutes and traversing 129 nm.

A second level cruise segment originated 1 mile west of Middleburg, Virginia, lasting 7 minutes and covering 24 nm.

The subsequent descent began 2 miles southeast of KHEF Manassas Regional Airport, Virginia, where the airplane dropped from 5,999 ft asl to 1,573 ft asl, a decrease of 4,426 ft in 5 minutes across 13 nm.

Final approach to runway 01R at KIAD Washington Dulles International Airport was conducted from the south, on a heading of 1.0° at 4 nm and 1,248 ft agl.

Touchdown occurred on runway 01R, whose length is 3,504 m; the aircraft contacted the surface 348 m beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 129 kt, with a vertical speed of minus 163 fpm. The touchdown point was offset 16.0 m from the centreline, and the threshold height of 75 ft agl and threshold speed of 146 kt both exceeded the target. Local weather at the time was 23 °C with a wind of 6 kt from 40°, a cross-wind component of 4 kt and a head-wind component of 5 kt.

The landing roll measured 1,431 m, representing 41 % of the runway, and the rollout alignment remained offset by 16.0 m from the centreline.

After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a movement that required 5 minutes and covered less than 1 nm.

Overall, the flight covered 567 nm, required 93 minutes of airborne time, and consumed 893 kg of fuel.
