Next time

Departure

Ease back pressure in smoothly as you approach 75 kt, holding a steady rotation rate rather than snatching the controls.

What happened: On the takeoff roll the aircraft bounced before becoming fully airborne.

Watch for: Attitude indicator: a smooth, continuous pitch-up through liftoff with no secondary bounce.

See Departure Roll

The 45-degrees-behind-the-wing cue assumes you can turn your head and use peripheral vision. Downwind spacing cues like "put the wingtip halfway up the strut" assume a fixed, known eyepoint. Neither survives a monitor unmodified. If you fly on a fixed monitor, stop pretending and fly a numbers-based circuit.

Flight narrative

Departing from Groningen Airport Eelde, the GA-8 Airvan Commuter Cargopod initiated its takeoff roll on runway 23, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 80 kt within 549 meters, which accounted for 22% of the available runway length. The local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 15 °C and a negligible wind of 1 kt from 270°, resulting in a minimal crosswind and headwind component.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand traffic pattern, it demonstrated a swift and efficient turn, completing the maneuver in less than 1 nm in 38 seconds. Subsequent turns and legs of the pattern were executed with similar precision, with the aircraft maintaining a steady pace throughout. The pattern downwind turn, for instance, covered a distance of 1 nm at an angle of 99.6° to the runway, while the base leg turn was completed in 1 nm at an angle of 53.8°. The final approach to runway 23 was initiated from the north-east, with the aircraft descending to 228 ft above ground level (agl) at a heading of 230.0°.

The GA-8 Airvan Commuter Cargopod touched down on runway 23 with a touchdown speed of 48 kt, achieving a touchdown distance of 476 meters. The touchdown rate was a commendable -50 fpm, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. Although the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.1 meters from the centerline, the overall performance of the aircraft was satisfactory. The flight, which covered a total distance of 5 nm, utilized 3 kg of fuel and lasted approximately 4 minutes.

Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 23 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde commenced from the north east, heading 230.0° at 0 nm and 228 ft above ground level. The approach quality was excellent, with a good threshold height and threshold speed of 75 kt, indicating a well-executed approach. The aircraft touched down at a distance of 476 m, which was within the acceptable range, and at a speed of 48 kt, also within the desired parameters. The touchdown rate of -50 fpm was perfect, demonstrating precise control and a smooth touchdown.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's centreline alignment was slightly off, deviating by 3.1 m from the centreline. This minor deviation did not significantly impact the overall performance of the landing. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 15 °C and a negligible wind of 1 kt at 270°, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind of 1 kt each.

The rollout phase was executed smoothly, with the aircraft coming to a stop within a reasonable distance. Overall, the landing performance of the GA-8 Airvan Commuter Cargopod was impressive, with a score of 98.0% reflecting the high standard of execution. The minor deviation from the centreline was the only notable aspect that prevented a perfect score.
