Speed and pitch

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

Lifted off at 77 kt with 5.1° 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.

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.

Rolled from 847 ft in, drifted right of the centreline, 5 ft at the widest, and lifted off 4 ft right, in 8 kn of crosswind from the right. Airborne 31 % 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 approach to YMML 27

The final from 4 nm.

Profile height against the 3° glideslope, with its 2° band in green.

Inside the glideslope band from 0.6 nm, where the final began, to the threshold, never more than 330 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, 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.

Plan distance off the extended centreline, your left at the top, with the 1° band. Sideways distances are drawn 9× larger than distances along the final.

Inside the 1° band all the way from 0.6 nm, never more than 140 ft 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 78 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 48 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Fast from 0.6 nm, where the final began, to the threshold (up to +23 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 crosswind

6 kt across from the left, which takes about 6° of crab to hold the centreline at 60 kt. Touched down with 6° of it still on, wings level.

Wind 250° at 15 kt · 13 kt head · 6 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 46 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 6 s, an average deceleration of 0.16 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 5,000 ft of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 41 ft, close to the 50 ft target. Touched down 2,517 ft in, 1,517 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 5,000 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.

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.

The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking area to the runway, which took approximately 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Velocity XL, then departed from runway 21 at NZDN Dunedin International Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,152 feet, which accounted for 19% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 77 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 65°F and winds of 11 knots at 5°. The crosswind was 8 knots, while the tailwind was 7 knots. After departing from Dunedin, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 1 minute and covered 1 nautical mile. This brief cruise phase took place overhead the airport.

The enroute climb phase began 1 mile west of the airport and involved a significant increase in altitude, from 467 feet above sea level to 20,015 feet. This climb took 12 minutes and covered 29 nautical miles. Following the climb, the aircraft entered another level cruise phase, which started 17 miles south of Roxburgh and lasted for 90 minutes. During this period, the aircraft covered a distance of 362 nautical miles.

The enroute descent phase began at a specific location, with the aircraft descending from 20,069 feet to 19,440 feet in just 2 minutes and covering 9 nautical miles. Another level cruise phase followed, which started at a different location and lasted for 88 minutes. During this period, the aircraft covered a distance of 803 nautical miles.

The final descent phase began overhead Heathmont, with the aircraft descending from 20,263 feet to 561 feet in just 5 minutes and covering 21 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered the final approach phase, which involved a descent from the east towards runway 27 at YMML Melbourne International Airport. The aircraft was heading 274.0° at 0 nautical miles and 158 feet above ground level.

The landing on runway 27 was successful, with the touchdown point being 1,060 feet beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 60 knots, which was good, and the touchdown rate was excellent at -83 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also perfect.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 56°F and winds of 15 knots at 249°. The crosswind was 6 knots, while the headwind was 13 knots. The total landing distance was 2,856 feet, which accounted for 38% of the runway. The total flight distance was 1,227 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 201 minutes.
