Your help is greatly appreciated in decoding the last section of this load report

MAX/MIN 1 TO 3 SEC INTERVAL
VRTA LONA LATA
S3 0135 0008 N000

What does LONA and LATA stand for?..and does S3 and S4 mean stations 3 and 4 and if so , where is the location of these stations on the aircraft

Thank you very much

Could someone please tell me if it is possible to read the pitch value at touchdown from the Load 15 report?

What does

PTCH

and

PTCR

exactly stand for?

Thank you

...What does PTCH and PTCR exactly stand for?...

PTCH = Pitch Angle in deg.
PTCR = Body Pitch Rate in deg/sec.

PTCH means Pitch Angle? Ok thank you. But at what time is the pitch angle recorded?

During flare?
Before touchdown?
during touchdown?
after touchdown with nose gear still in the air?

Questions concerning my initial question if you can readout from the load 15 report the pitch value at touchdown?

PS.: Danke für den Hinweis, da aber im anderen Thread keiner geantwortet hat (oder wird) dacht ich mir es ist nicht so schlimm ;-)

It depends on the reason for exceedance, but normally you can read the values below the line which say:
VALUES AT LAND/EVENT

A good reference point is that the RALT in that line at about 0.

Ok thx,

in the S2 Line VALUES AT LAND EVENT i got different values?

sometimes i got at the PTCH Value N003 and at other times there is printed -005?

Are - and the N the same (maybe different software versions) and what did they stand for? and what does the term 003 in my example mean?
