Arrival

Smooth and coordinate your control inputs through the pattern entry, easing elevator and aileron movements to avoid abrupt g force spikes.

What happened: G force varied during the pattern entry, and the same unevenness showed up again in the landing and through the rollout. A rough, abrupt control pattern early on tends to carry straight through to the ground run.

Watch for: G meter: hold a smooth, steady reading through the turn, avoiding any sharp spikes.

See Pattern EntryArrival LandingArrival Rollout

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.

Flight narrative

Departing from Groningen Airport Eelde, the Grumman AA-5A Traveler began its takeoff roll on runway 23. The aircraft accelerated smoothly, reaching liftoff speed of 70 kt in a distance of 404 meters, which accounted for 16% of the available runway length. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 15 °C and a gentle wind of 1 kt from 270°, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind component.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand traffic pattern, it demonstrated excellent maneuverability, completing the pattern entry in less than 1 nm in 20 seconds. The subsequent crosswind turn was executed with precision, taking 23 seconds to complete the turn. The pilot then initiated the downwind turn, maintaining a 45-degree angle to the runway and a distance of 1 nm. The downwind leg was flown for 2 nm in 59 seconds, followed by a base leg turn with an angle of 56.4° to the runway. The final approach was made from the north-east, with the aircraft descending to 198 ft above ground level (agl) at a heading of 232.0°.

The Grumman AA-5A Traveler touched down on runway 23 with a speed of 42 kt, achieving a touchdown distance of 308 meters, which was 16% of the available runway length. The touchdown rate was an impressive -72 fpm, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was excellent, and the aircraft rolled out perfectly, using a total of 398 meters of runway. The total flight distance was 6 nm, covering a distance of 5 nm in 5 minutes, and the aircraft consumed 1 kg of fuel during the flight.
