What went well

Touched down at -168 fpm — a soft arrival
Touchdown 391 m in — inside the full-score zone
Threshold crossed at 50 ft and 126 kt — both inside band

What held you back

Arrival Approach — 1,000 ft gate 100 %, 500 ft gate 86 %, −0.48 points
Departure Climb 3 — climb speed 159 kt against 183 kt at 88 %, −0.33 points

Next time

Departure

Lower the nose and add power to raise climb speed to 183 kt.

What happened: Climb speed was 159 kt against a target of 183 kt, running 24 kt slow through the climb.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator against the climb target of 183 kt.

See Departure Climb 3

Arrival

Shallow the descent on final to re-intercept the glideslope and cross the threshold at 50 ft.

What happened: The aircraft was off the glideslope during the approach, tracking low against the required path.

Watch for: Watch the glideslope indicator and threshold height, targeting 50 ft at the threshold.

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.

Speed and pitch

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

Lifted off at 134 kt with 11.2° of pitch. Climb 3 averaged 159 kt, 24 kt under its 183 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 935 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 1,804 m of runway left; gear up at 8 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 3,140 fpm on average to 935 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 2,997 m runway.

Rolled from 50 m in, never more than 0.9 m off the centreline. Airborne 32 % 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 500 ft gate: glideslope more than 1° off the runway's 3°.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 0.7 nm, about 380 ft above the runway, to the threshold, after the 500 ft gate. The last to settle was the glideslope.

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 NFTF 11

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

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

On the glideslope from 4 nm to 2.8 nm, then high to 0.7 nm (up to 340 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 22× larger than distances along the final.

Inside the 1° band all the way from 4 nm, never more than 17 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 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 3.8 nm (up to +37 kt), then inside the band to the threshold.

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.

Perfect landing flare

The crosswind

No crosswind: nothing to correct for. Touched down straight, wings level.

Wind 130° at 2 kt · 2 kt head · 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 120 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 54 s, an average deceleration of 0.09 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 50 ft, close to the 50 ft target; began the flare at 25 ft. Touched down 391 m in, 86 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 570 fpm at the flare to 170 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 1.9° 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 737-600 taxied from the parking area to runway 26 at NSFA Faleolo International Airport in 2 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.

During the departure roll on runway 26, the aircraft used 982 m of runway, representing 33 % of the available length, and lifted off at 134 kt; ambient conditions were 27 °C with a wind of 6 kt from 109°, a 2 kt crosswind component and a 6 kt tailwind component.

Climb commenced 1 mile west of NSFA, with the airplane ascending from 1,044 ft asl to 28,811 ft asl, a gain of 27,768 ft achieved in 11 minutes while covering 71 nm.

Level cruise began 64 miles south-west of Matautu (Atua, Samoa) and continued for 40 minutes, during which 297 nm were flown.

Descent was initiated 15 miles north of NFTL Lifuka Island Airport, with the aircraft descending from 28,964 ft asl to 1,723 ft asl, a loss of 27,241 ft in 18 minutes over a distance of 116 nm.

The final approach to runway 11 at NFTF Fua’amotu International Airport was flown from the north-west, on a heading of 122.0° at 4 nm and 1,602 ft agl; local weather reported 18 °C with a wind of 2 kt from 130°, no crosswind and a 2 kt headwind.

Landing on runway 11 was executed with a threshold speed of 126 kt, a touchdown distance of 387 m, a touchdown speed of 121 kt, and a touchdown rate of minus 193 fpm; the runway length is 2,670 m and the total landing distance recorded was 1,223 m, equivalent to 46 % of the runway.

Runway rollout alignment was perfect, and the aircraft decelerated to a stop within the remaining runway length.

The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm.

In total, the flight covered 490 nm, took 74 minutes, and consumed 4,059 kg of fuel.
