The flight began with a departure roll from runway 06 at LFPO Paris-Orly Airport. The aircraft, a BF 109G-6, accelerated down the runway and lifted off at a speed of 108 kt, covering a distance of 366 m, which accounted for 11% of the runway. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 23 °C and a wind speed of 0 kt at 322 °.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand pattern, it followed a standard procedure, making a left-hand turn from the runway. The distance covered during this turn was less than 1 nm, and it took 36 seconds to complete. The subsequent left-hand pattern crosswind turn was even shorter, taking only 12 seconds to cover a distance of less than 1 nm.

The aircraft then proceeded to the downwind leg, where it turned at an angle of 99.5 ° to the runway. This turn covered a distance of 1 nm, and the aircraft continued on the downwind leg for 2 nm, taking 86 seconds to cover this distance. The base leg turn was another left-hand turn, which brought the aircraft closer to the runway. This turn covered a distance of 1 nm and was made at an angle of 19.4 ° to the runway.

The final approach to runway 06 was made from the south-west, with the aircraft heading 60.0 ° at an altitude of 93 ft above ground level (agl) and a distance of 0 nm from the runway. The landing was smooth, with the aircraft touching down 294 m beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 87 kt, which was good, but the touchdown rate was fair at -257 fpm.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned, being 9.6 m off the centerline. However, the runway rollout alignment was very good, and the aircraft came to a stop quickly. The total landing distance was 914 m, which accounted for 27% of the runway. The taxiing to the parking area took less than 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nm.

The total flight distance was 6 nm, and the flight took 5 minutes to complete. The aircraft used 11 kg of fuel during the flight, indicating a relatively efficient performance. Overall, the flight was smooth and uneventful, with the aircraft performing well in the given weather conditions.

Landing on runway 06 at LFPO Paris-Orly Airport in the BF 109G-6

Landing Score 91.33 %

Landing Summary

The BF 109G-6 aircraft successfully landed at LFPO Paris-Orly Airport, with a final approach from the southwest. The aircraft was at an altitude of 93 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway when it began its descent. The pilot maintained a heading of 60.0°, which is aligned with the runway, and executed a smooth landing on runway 06.

The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed was above the target speed, coming in at 109 knots. This may have been due to the pilot's decision to maintain a higher speed to ensure a stable approach.

The touchdown point was 294 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively long distance. The touchdown speed of 87 knots was within the acceptable range, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the landing. However, the touchdown rate of -257 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, suggesting that the pilot may have been able to achieve a smoother touchdown.

One notable issue with the landing was the misalignment of the runway touchdown position, which was off-centerline by 9.6 meters. This may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's alignment or a slight crosswind that was not reported. Despite this, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.

The local weather conditions were favorable for the landing, with a temperature of 23°C and a wind speed of 0 knots. The crosswind and headwind components were also negligible, making the landing conditions ideal. The total landing distance of 914 meters was 27% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some areas for improvement, particularly in terms of touchdown rate and runway alignment.
