Next time

Departure

Raise the gear lever promptly once a positive climb is confirmed, before reaching the target retraction height.

What happened: Gear retraction was delayed, with the gear not coming up until 715 ft agl.

Watch for: Landing gear: up by the normal retraction gate

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 416 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 512 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

Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering it.

Speed and pitch

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

Rotated at 134 kt, 14 kt below the 148 kt target, and lifted off at 141 kt 2.2 s later, the nose coming up at 3.9° a second. Climb 3 averaged 164 kt, 6 kt under its 170 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 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 919 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 1,214 m of runway left; gear up at 715 ft, 315 ft past the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 2,340 fpm on average to 919 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 2,488 m runway.

Rolled from the start of the runway, drifted left of the centreline, 9.3 m at the widest, and lifted off 7.7 m left. Airborne 39 % 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 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 LMML 31

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 31× larger than distances along the final.

Inside the 1° band all the way from 4 nm, never more than 12 m 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 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 −4 kt and +19 kt on the approach speed of 134 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 flare95.96

Great landing flare. It lost 4.0 points, partly for the nose going up and down 2 times.

The crosswind

Little crosswind (1 kt): nothing to correct for. Touched down with the nose 5° left of the track, wings level.

Wind 045° at 1 kt · 0 kt tail · 1 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 134 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 21 s, an average deceleration of 0.27 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.

Crossed the threshold at 28 ft, 22 ft below the 50 ft target; began the flare at 24 ft. Touched down 310 m in, close to 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 640 fpm at the flare to 110 fpm at 12 ft, then back up to 510 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 0.6° 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.

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 A320neo taxied from the parking area to runway 26 at LICC Catania-Fontanarossa Airport in 7 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nm.

During the departure roll on runway 26, the aircraft accelerated over 988 m, representing 40 % of the runway length, and lifted off at 142 kt; ambient conditions were 32 °C with a wind of 1 kt from 277°, a headwind component of 1 kt and no cross-wind.

Climb commenced overhead the departure airport, rising from 1,009 ft asl to 14,765 ft asl - a gain of 13,756 ft - in 6 minutes while covering 30 nm.

The first cruise segment began 1 mile south-west of LIGR Campo di Volo Avioclub Caltagirone Grammichele and lasted 7 minutes, during which the aircraft flew 41 nm at level altitude.

Descent started 19 miles south-west of Marina di Ragusa, with the aircraft descending from 14,721 ft asl to 3,187 ft asl, a loss of 11,534 ft, over 10 minutes and a distance of 54 nm.

A second cruise phase was initiated 5 miles south of Birzebbuga, Malta, lasting 8 minutes and covering 29 nm before the final approach began.

The final approach to runway 31 at LMML Malta International Airport was flown from the south-east on a heading of 315.0°, intercepting the glide path at 4 nm and 1,229 ft agl; local weather reported 32 °C, wind 1 kt from 76°, a cross-wind of 1 kt and a tail-wind component of 1 kt.

Landing on runway 31, which is 3,351 m long, was achieved with a threshold speed of 131 kt. Touchdown occurred 308 m down the runway at 129 kt, with a firm vertical speed of minus 390 fpm. The aircraft touched down 12.1 m off the centreline, and the total landing distance recorded was 993 m, equivalent to 30 % of the runway length.

Runway rollout remained slightly off-centreline by 12.1 m, consistent with the touchdown deviation.

The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.

In total, the flight covered 162 nm, required 42 minutes of airborne time, and consumed 1,387 kg of fuel.
