Top opportunity

Smooth the climb

Departure Climb 1

Pull to 15 degrees at one rate and you get a clean liftoff, pull to the same 15 degrees at twice the rate and you get an overshoot, a push, and an oscillation through the first few hundred feet. The type-general rule of thumb is a rotation rate of about 2 to 3 degrees per second, which means roughly five to seven seconds from starting the pull to reaching the initial climb attitude of around 15 degrees nose-up. Count it out loud during your next takeoff and you will almost certainly discover you have been rotating in two seconds flat.

Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 04L at LFMN Nice-Côte d’Azur Airport was flown by TAP Air Portugal flight CS-TVG and received a 98.7 % score. From the south-west the aircraft intercepted the final approach at 4 NM and 1,278 ft agl on a heading of 45.0°, and the approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits.

At the threshold the runway length was 2,642 m and the threshold height was reported as good. The published threshold speed was 133 kt; the aircraft touched down 57 m beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 128 kt. The touchdown rate was recorded as fair at minus 267 fpm and runway touchdown alignment was perfect. Ambient temperature was 27 °C with wind 4 kt from 330°, giving a 4 kt cross-wind component and a 1 kt head-wind component.

The total landing distance measured 1,117 m, representing 42 % of the available runway. The aircraft remained on the centreline throughout the roll and the distance used was well within runway limits.

Runway rollout alignment was described as very good, with the aircraft tracking the centreline to the stop.

To tighten the touchdown point, aim to arrest the flare within the designated touchdown zone rather than beyond it, and refine flare technique to reduce the descent rate toward the runway. Maintaining these adjustments will help convert the already high score into an even tighter performance.
