Next time

Departure

Ease back pressure in smoothly as you approach 42 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

Arrival

Be established on the glideslope before the gate, with small corrections made early rather than a large one late.

What happened: The approach was off the glideslope at the stabilisation gate.

Watch for: Glideslope indication at the gate

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.

Flight narrative

The Savage Cub taxied from its parking position to the departure runway in 9 minutes, covering a ground distance of 2 nm before lining up on runway 20 at KTRK Truckee-Tahoe Airport.

During the take-off roll the aircraft used 194 m of runway, representing 14 % of the available length, and lifted off at 49 kt; the local weather was 3 °C with a wind of 2 kt from 178°, a 1 kt cross-wind component and a 1 kt head-wind component.

Climb commenced immediately after liftoff, with the airplane ascending from 6,294 ft asl to 8,122 ft asl - a gain of 1,828 ft - in 2 minutes while covering 2 nm, the climb being initiated overhead KTRK Truckee-Tahoe Airport.

The level cruise segment began 2 miles south-east of KTRK and was maintained for 20 minutes, during which the aircraft travelled 31 nm at a steady altitude.

Descent started 1 mile south of South Lake Tahoe, descending from 7,919 ft asl to 6,875 ft asl - a loss of 1,044 ft - in 3 minutes and covering 4 nm.

Final approach to runway 36 at KTVL Lake Tahoe Airport was executed from the south, on a heading of 13.0° at 1 nm and 606 ft agl; the aircraft then descended from 817 ft agl to 87 ft agl in 82 seconds, meeting the stabilisation gates.

Landing on runway 36 was achieved with a threshold speed of 38 kt, a touchdown distance of 188 m and a touchdown speed of 35 kt; the vertical speed at touchdown was minus 108 fpm and alignment was perfect, while local conditions were 3 °C, wind 2 kt from 181°, no cross-wind and a 1 kt tail-wind component.

Rollout continued along the runway with perfect alignment; the total landing distance recorded was 305 m, representing 15 % of the runway length.

In total the flight covered 41 nm, taking 31, and used 0 kg of fuel.

Landing Score 99.95 %
Landing Summary

Savage Cub achieved a final approach to runway 36 at KTVL Lake Tahoe Airport from the south, maintaining a heading of 13.0° at 1 nm and 606 ft agl. The aircraft descended from 817 ft agl to 87 ft agl in 82 seconds and was scored on the stabilisation gates.

At threshold the height was reported as good and the threshold speed was a little below target at 38 kt.

Touchdown occurred 188 m down the runway at a speed of 35 kt, with a smooth vertical rate of minus 108 fpm and perfect runway-touchdown alignment.

The total landing distance was 305 m, representing 15 % of the 1,983 m runway, and rollout alignment was perfect.

To bring the score closer to the optimum, aim to achieve the target threshold speed more precisely and fine-tune the descent profile to match the stabilisation gates. Maintaining these parameters will help convert the solid performance into a higher rating.
