  • Arrival Landing · flare: the descent was not taken out−0.03

Next time

Arrival

Nothing to change in the speed, the height or the flare. Keep the landing attitude held until the mains are on, so the aircraft is not let down onto the runway in the last moment.

What happened: The touchdown rate was 226 fpm. Nothing before it explains that: threshold speed and height were within limits and the flare was flown normally.

Watch for: Touchdown rate: a little less than 226 fpm next time

See Arrival Touchdown

There are several things that can go wrong during the flare, carrying too much speed over the threshold, starting the flare at the wrong height and inconsistent flight control inputs, all contribute to a poor flare resulting in a hard touchdown or a float down the runway.

Speed and pitch

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

Rotated at 147 kt, 5 kt below the 152 kt target, and lifted off at 166 kt 5.5 s later, the nose coming up at 1.6° a second. Climb 3 held close to its 184 kt target, at 182 kt on average.

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 figures at liftoff are the pitch then and how fast the nose came up, in degrees a second. 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 894 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 4,081 ft of runway left; gear up at 696 ft, inside the 832 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 2,200 fpm on average to 894 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 10,771 ft runway.

Rolled from 315 ft in, drifted left of the centreline, 11 ft at the widest, and lifted off 11 ft left. Airborne 51 % 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.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 4 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 LGIR 27

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 110 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. 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 20× larger than distances along the final.

Inside the 1° band all the way from 4 nm, never more than 60 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 35 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 21 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Inside the speed band all the way, between +3 kt and +25 kt on the approach speed of 141 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 flare98.29

Excellent landing flare. It lost 1.7 points, partly for taking only 355 fpm of the sink out.

The crosswind

3 kt across from the right, which takes about 1° of crab to hold the centreline at 144 kt. Touched down with the nose 2° into wind, wings level.

Wind 310° 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.

Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 31 ft, 19 ft below the 50 ft target; began the flare at 14 ft. Touched down 839 ft in, 161 ft short of 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.

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

The sink went from 600 fpm at the flare to 230 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 1.6° on the way down.

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.

A second cruise phase was initiated 28 miles northeast of Agia Pelagia (Crete) and lasted 6 minutes, during which the aircraft travelled 28 nm.

The subsequent descent began 3 miles north of Stalis (Crete), dropping from 2,598 ft asl to 1,502 ft asl-a decrease of 1,096 ft-in 3 minutes and covering 8 nm.

Final approach to runway 27 at LGIR Heraklion International Airport was conducted from the east, on a heading of 275.0° at 4 nm and 1,402 ft agl.

Landing on runway 27, which is 8,900 ft long, occurred with a threshold speed of 146 kt; the touchdown point was 218 ft beyond the touchdown zone, the touchdown speed was 144 kt, and the vertical speed was minus 327 fpm. The aircraft touched down 22 ft off the centreline. Local weather reported a temperature of 81 °F, wind 6 kt from 310°, with a 3 kt crosswind and a 5 kt headwind. Total landing distance measured 4,004 ft (45 % of the runway), and runway rollout alignment was very good.

The rollout concluded with the aircraft exiting the runway and taxied to the parking area in 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.

In total, the flight covered 1,559 nm, lasted 217 minutes, and consumed 43,298 lbs of fuel.
