Next time

Departure

Reduce climb power to bring speed back to 117 kt and hold it there.

What happened: Climb speed was 84 kt fast at 201 kt during the climb.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 117 kt in the climb

See Departure Climb 3

Arrival

Keep the back pressure coming once the flare is established, holding the nose up through to touchdown instead of easing it.

What happened: The flare arrested the sink but 431 fpm of it came back before touchdown, and in flights like this one that returning sink usually carries through to a firm or hard touchdown at 197 fpm.

Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: the sink held near zero all the way through touchdown, not allowed to build back up.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

The rudder input is a changing profile through the roll rather than one that is held. So the demand on your right foot starts large at power application, eases as speed builds and the rudder gains authority, then jumps again at rotation.

Touchdown was 418 m past the threshold. It was on speed over the threshold, so this was more back pressure than the speed could take: raise the nose more slowly and stop as soon as the sink is checked.

The nose wandered in the climb

From 35 ft to the end of the climb the nose moved between -0.4° and 6.5°, and the speed between 112 kt and 210 kt.

Once clear of the runway the nose moved through a wide range, and the speed moved with it. Set the climb attitude, hold it and trim, and give the speed a few seconds to settle before correcting it with a degree or two of pitch. Chasing the airspeed with large pitch changes makes it wander more.

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.

Side view from the start of the roll to the end of Climb 3 at 1,027 ft. The distance scale changes past the runway end.

Reached 35 ft with 2,297 m of runway left; gear up at 12 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 830 fpm on average to 1,027 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 dark stretch of the roll is the run with the nose up and the wheels still on, with its length and time under the runway. The gear-up ring is coloured by its mark. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, scored on its average speed against the target.

Speed and pitch from brake release to the end of the climb, against time.

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 grey band is the run between the nose coming up and the wheels leaving the runway. The figures at liftoff are the pitch then and how fast the nose came up, in degrees a second. The grey dashed line across the pitch is the attitude held from 35 ft to the end: a nose held steady is a climb speed that holds, and the airspeed trace sits directly above it to compare. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, the part of the climb scored on holding the climb speed.

The stabilisation gates

One stabilised approach gate: seven checks where the approach path is 300 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out. These checks are the approach's score.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 1.1 nm, about 330 ft above the runway, to the threshold, before the 300 ft gate. The last to settle was the wings.

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 SADL 02

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

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

Inside the glideslope band from 1.4 nm, where the final began, to the threshold, never more than 70 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.

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.

Speed against the approach speed. The green band runs from 5 kt slow to 49 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 29 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Inside the speed band all the way, between −1 kt and +11 kt on the approach speed of 98 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 flare mostly held the target profile

The flare took all the sink out 3 ft agl above the runway and the aircraft then dropped the rest of the way, 431 fpm of sink coming back. Touchdown was 418 m past the threshold. It was on speed over the threshold, so this was more back pressure than the speed could take: raise the nose more slowly and stop as soon as the sink is checked. Once it has ballooned, hold the attitude and let it settle rather than pushing.

Side view — the last 1,264 m of the approach.

Began the flare at 41 ft, 119 m before the threshold; crossed the threshold at 33 ft, 17 ft below the 50 ft target; ballooned 5 ft from 2 ft. Touched down 418 m in, 113 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 1,264 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.

From the flare the descent stopped and turned into a climb of 230 fpm before coming down at 200 fpm to touch. The nose went down 0.5° on the way down. Into the flare at 107 kt, 12 kt over the 95 kt approach speed, and 94 kt at touchdown.

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.

Touched down 5.8 m left of the centreline, and stayed about there down the rollout, 8.7 m left at the widest. Little crosswind (2 kt): nothing to correct for. Touched down with the nose 2° left of the track, wings level.

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. 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. The sentence gives the nose against the direction you were actually moving as the wheels touched, and the steepest bank as they touched, the figure the touchdown's Bank tile marks. The rest of it is shown for reading, not marked.

From 82 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 7 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.

Flight narrative

The Cirrus Vision SF50 taxied from the parking area to the runway in 4 minutes, covering less than 1 nm, and departed runway 02 at SAAR Rosario Islas Malvinas International Airport. The take-off roll used 479 m, 16 % of the runway, and rotation occurred at 74 kt. Local weather was 22 °C with a 17 kt wind from 010°, giving a 17 kt headwind and no crosswind.

Initial climb to 1 000 ft agl lasted 72 seconds, averaging 783 fpm and reaching 202 kt at the top of the climb. The aircraft then climbed from 1 137 ft asl to 19 082 ft asl in 11 minutes, covering 45 nm, beginning about 1 mile south of SAFA Don Jose Airport Capitan Bermudez. Level cruise at 19 000 ft asl was held for 20 minutes, covering 99 nm, starting 8 miles south-west of San Nicolas de los Arroyos.

Descent began from 18 912 ft asl to 316 ft asl in 16 minutes, covering 57 nm, starting 5 miles south-east of SABS Belén De Escobar Airport Belen de Escobar. The final approach to runway 02 at SADL La Plata Airport descended from 359 ft agl to -25 ft agl in 50 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 500 ft above the runway were all met: gear down, landing flap, sink rate, glideslope, centreline, speed, and wings level. Gear was lowered at 1 203 ft agl at 153 kt; the final flap position 1 was selected at 918 ft agl at 130 kt.

Landing was made on runway 02, which is 1 264 m long, with a good threshold height. Threshold speed was slightly above target at 104 kt. The flare was described as very good, though the aircraft ballooned in the flare. Touchdown occurred at 94 kt, a little fast, with a touchdown rate of -198 fpm. Touchdown distance was good at 418 m, but the touchdown point was slightly misaligned by 5.8 m from the centreline. No bounce occurred. Total landing distance was 600 m, 47 % of the runway, and the rollout was slightly misaligned by 9.2 m from the centreline.

After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm. The flight covered a total of 207 nm in 56 minutes and used 184 kg of fuel. Local weather at landing was 21 °C with a 15 kt wind from 360°, giving a 15 kt headwind and a 4 kt crosswind.
