What went well

Landed straight in a 12 kn crosswind — 1.51 m off the centreline, no bounce
Touched down at -172 fpm — a soft arrival
Touchdown 109 m in — inside the full-score zone

What held you back

Departure Roll — Landing Lights at 0 %, Takeoff distance 3,497 m at 60 %, −1.07 points
Arrival Approach — GPWS warning; 1,000 ft gate 71 %, 500 ft gate 100 %, −0.95 points
Departure Climb 3 — climb speed 155 kt against 188 kt at 77 %, bank angle up to 28.3 ° at 83 %, −0.83 points

Next time

Departure

Lower the nose and add power to raise climb speed to 188 kt.

What happened: Climb speed was 155 kt against a target of 188 kt, running 33 kt slow through the climb.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator against the climb target of 188 kt.

See Departure Climb 3

Arrival

Arrest the excessive sink rate on approach with a pitch and power adjustment to re-establish a stable glidepath before the gates.

What happened: An excessive sink rate was carried through the approach gates, and the flare then began early at 51 ft, 6.1 ft above the normal flare band. An elevated sink rate on approach usually carries into flaring early, as pilots react to the rate instead of waiting for the right height.

Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: a stable, on-glidepath sink rate through the approach gates.

See Arrival ApproachArrival Landing

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 5.7° of pitch. Climb 3 averaged 155 kt, 33 kt under its 188 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 984 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 151 m of runway left; gear up at 13 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 2,240 fpm on average to 984 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 4,113 m runway.

Rolled from 2,301 m in, drifted left of the centreline, 7.2 m at the widest, and lifted off 5.5 m left, in 9 kn of crosswind from the left. Airborne 86 % of the way down the runway, past 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 1,000 ft gate: sink rate more than 600 fpm beyond what the glideslope needed and centreline more than 1° off.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 1.7 to 1.2 nm, then not again: low from 1.2 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 OE49 01

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

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

High from 4 nm to 3.8 nm (up to 460 ft over), then back on it to 1.2 nm, then low to the threshold (up to 170 ft under).

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 3× larger than distances along the final.

Joined 400 m right of the centreline, then inside the band from 1.7 nm to the threshold.

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 34 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 20 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Outside the speed band twice; furthest −9 kt at 0.8 nm.

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 flare95.29

Great landing flare. It lost 4.7 points, mostly for starting the flare at 51 ft agl, above the usual 11 ft agl–45 ft agl.

The crosswind

12 kt across from the left, which takes about 6° of crab to hold the centreline at 119 kt. Touched down with 5° of it still on, wings level.

Wind 299° at 13 kt · 4 kt head · 12 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 124 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 12 s, an average deceleration of 0.40 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.

Began the flare high, at 51 ft, 398 m before the threshold; crossed the threshold at 6 ft, 44 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 109 m in, 195 m short of 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 670 fpm at the flare to 170 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 2.1° 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.
