Next time

Departure

Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.

What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 7.6°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.

Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.

See Departure Climb 3

Arrival

Make small rudder corrections against a fixed point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline.

What happened: You drifted off the centreline on the approach.

Watch for: Runway centreline: tracked all the way to 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.

Rotated at 153 kt, 4 kt above the 149 kt target, and lifted off at 163 kt 4.7 s later, the nose coming up at 1.6° a second. Climb 3 held close to its 164 kt target, at 165 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 993 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 2,109 m of runway left; gear up at 6 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 2,540 fpm on average to 993 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 4,885 m runway.

Rolled from 73 m in, drifted left of the centreline, 8.1 m at the widest, and lifted off 8.1 m left. Airborne 49 % 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 0.5 nm, about 210 ft above the runway, to the threshold, after the 500 ft gate. The last to settle was the centreline.

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 KPSP 31L

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 40 ft below 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, 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 253 m right of the centreline, then inside the band from 0.5 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.

Inside the speed band all the way, between +1 kt and +3 kt on the approach speed of 135 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.

Perfect landing flare

The crosswind

4 kt across from the left, which takes about 2° of crab to hold the centreline at 131 kt. Touched down with 2° of it still on, wings level.

Wind 280° at 6 kt · 4 kt head · 4 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 130 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 40 s, an average deceleration of 0.14 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 1,554 m of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 27 ft, 23 ft below the 50 ft target; began the flare at 17 ft. Touched down 426 m in, 121 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 1,554 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 480 fpm at the flare to 220 fpm at touchdown. The pitch barely changed.

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.

Plan view — the first 1,554 m of the 2,593 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.

Touched down 5.9 m right of the centreline, and steered back to 1.7 m left by the end of the rollout.

How to read this

The runway from above, with your left at the top. Touching down inside the green bracket scores full marks for the distance. The shaded part is the rollout, up to where it ended. The arrow beside the runway is the crosswind, pointing the way the air was moving, so it pushed the aircraft that way.

Flight narrative

The Airbus A320-ceo taxied from the parking area to runway 34L at KDEN Denver International Airport, a movement that lasted 5 minutes and covered 1 nm.

Take-off was performed on runway 34L. The aircraft used 2,416 m of runway, which is 49 % of the available length. Rotation occurred at 153 kt. Local weather at departure was temperature 13 °C, wind 10 kt from 029°, giving a crosswind component of 5 kt and a headwind component of 8 kt.

Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl took 21 seconds, with an average climb rate of 2,149 fpm and a speed of 162 kt at the top of the segment. The climb continued from 6,383 ft asl to 36,010 ft asl in 16 minutes, covering 103 nm and beginning 2 nm north-west of KDEN.

The aircraft level-flew at 36,000 ft asl for 62 minutes, covering 415 nm, beginning 5 nm north-east of Aspen.

Descent from 36,003 ft asl to 1,707 ft asl was completed in 33 minutes over 171 nm, starting 6 nm west of 4AZ6 Parsons Field Kingman.

Final approach to runway 31L at KPSP Palm Springs International Airport began with a descent from 1,291 ft agl to -3 ft agl in 102 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway were met for gear down, landing flap, sink rate, glideslope, speed and wings level; the check for centreline was not met. The aircraft configured with landing gear down at 2,577 ft agl and 191 kt, and final flap position 5 at 1,742 ft agl and 152 kt.

Landing on runway 31L, which is 2,593 m long, was made with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 137 kt. The flare was described as perfect. Touchdown occurred 426 m down the runway at 131 kt, a little fast, with a fair touchdown rate of minus 219 fpm. The touchdown point was slightly misaligned by 6.8 m from the centreline. Local weather at landing was temperature 24 °C, wind 5 kt from 280°, giving a crosswind of 4 kt and a headwind of 4 kt. No bounce occurred.

The total landing roll was 1,472 m, which is 57 % of the runway, and the rollout alignment was perfect.

After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a movement that lasted 5 minutes and covered 1 nm.

Overall, the flight covered 698 nm in 125 minutes and consumed 4,339 kg of fuel.
