Departure Roll

A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 16 at LESS Sotos Airfield, where the aircraft, a PC-24 Air Ambulance, took off with a takeoff distance of 735 meters, which was 115% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 115 knots. At the time of departure, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 7 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 5 knots from a direction of 334 degrees, resulting in a tailwind of 5 knots.

As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb 1 mile north east of Mariana, a location in Castilla-La Mancha, Spain. The climb was from an initial altitude of 4,179 feet above sea level to a maximum altitude of 38,041 feet above sea level, an increase of 33,862 feet in just 8 minutes, covering a distance of 38 nautical miles. This marked the end of the enroute climb phase.

The enroute level cruise phase began 4 miles west of Ojos Negros, a location in Aragon, Spain. During this phase, the aircraft maintained a steady altitude for 17 minutes, covering a distance of 379 nautical miles. Following this, the enroute descent phase started overhead Le Chambon-Feugerolles, a location in Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes, France. The descent was from a maximum altitude of 39,415 feet above sea level to a final altitude of 4,433 feet above sea level, a decrease of 34,982 feet in 11 minutes, covering a distance of 141 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 06 at LSGC Les Eplatures Airport was made from the south west, with a heading of 53.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,060 feet above ground level. The landing was executed with a threshold speed that was slightly below the target speed of 106 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 319 meters, and the touchdown speed was 96 knots, which was also good. The touchdown rate was firm at -360 feet per minute.

The aircraft landed on runway 06, which had a length of 1,020 meters. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 4 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 18 knots from a direction of 40 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 17 knots. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 5.3 meters. The total landing distance was 675 meters, which was 66% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good.

In conclusion, the flight was a successful one, covering a total distance of 563 nautical miles in 45 minutes, using 1,377 kilograms of fuel. The aircraft performed well throughout the flight, with good takeoff and landing distances, and a smooth enroute climb and descent.

Landing Summary

The PC-24 Air Ambulance successfully landed at LSGC Les Eplatures Airport, achieving a score of 93.4%. The aircraft approached the runway from the southwest, heading 53.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,060 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a precise final approach, taking into account the local weather conditions, which included a temperature of 4°C and a wind speed of 18 kn at 40°.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 06, which has a length of 1,020 meters. The threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 106 kn. The touchdown distance was good, measuring 319 meters, and the touchdown speed was also within acceptable limits at 96 kn. However, the touchdown rate was firm at -360 fpm, indicating a slightly steeper descent than desired.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 5.3 meters, which may require some adjustments in the pilot's approach strategy. Despite this, the runway rollout alignment was very good, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control and stability during the landing phase.

The local weather conditions, including a moderate headwind of 17 kn and a relatively low crosswind of 4 kn, did not significantly impact the landing. The pilot's ability to adapt to these conditions and execute a smooth landing is a testament to their skill and experience. Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot's performance earned a high score of 93.4%.
