Improve the pattern base leg

Pattern Base Leg

Bank angle in the pattern is conventionally kept to 20 to 30 degrees, and the base-to-final turn is where that convention earns its keep. Stall speed rises with bank because the wing must produce more lift in a turn. Roughly 7 per cent higher at 30 degrees, about 19 per cent at 45, and around 40 per cent at 60. At 65 kt on base you don't have much margin to spend steepening a turn to salvage an overshoot.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 28 at EGQG Longside Airfield, where the aircraft, Sirius, took off with a takeoff distance of 124 meters, which is 25% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 53 knots. At the time of takeoff, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots at 270 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind and a headwind of 2 knots.

After takeoff, the aircraft entered a left-hand pattern, which involved a turn from the runway 28 at EGQG Longside Airfield. The distance covered during this turn was 1 nautical mile in 29 seconds. The subsequent crosswind turn from the same runway was completed in less than 1 nautical mile in 18 seconds. The pattern downwind turn was executed at an angle of 43.2 degrees to the runway, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The downwind leg of the pattern took 55 seconds to complete, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles.

The base leg turn was made at an angle of 49.4 degrees to the runway, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile. The base leg itself was completed in less than 1 nautical mile in 34 seconds. The final turn was made in less than 1 nautical mile in 11 seconds, setting the aircraft up for a final approach to runway 28 at EGQG Longside Airfield from the east, at a heading of 278.0 degrees and an altitude of 31.0 meters above ground level.

The landing on runway 28 at EGQG Longside Airfield was executed with a runway length of 495 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed of 39 knots was well below the target speed, requiring the pilot to exercise caution to avoid stalling. The touchdown distance was good at 101 meters, and the touchdown speed of 36 knots was also good. The touchdown rate was excellent at -0.3 meters per second. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.0 meters from the centerline.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were the same as those at takeoff, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots at 269 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind and a headwind of 2 knots. The total flight distance was 6 nautical miles, which was completed in 5 minutes, and the aircraft used 1 kilogram of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 28 at EGQG Longside Airfield in the Sirius
Landing Score 95.66 %
Landing Summary

The aircraft, identified as Sirius, successfully landed at EGQG Longside Airfield with a high score of 95.7%. The final approach was conducted from the east, heading 278.0° at an altitude of 31.0 meters above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles (nm) from the runway. The aircraft was approaching runway 28, which has a length of 495 meters.

The pilot's performance during the final approach was commendable, as the threshold height was well maintained. However, it is worth noting that the threshold speed of 39 knots was below the target speed, indicating that the pilot may have been taking a cautious approach to avoid stalling the aircraft. This is a good practice, as it ensures the safety of the aircraft and its occupants.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft performed well, with a touchdown distance of 101 meters, which is within acceptable limits. The touchdown speed of 36 knots was also good, indicating that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft during the landing. The touchdown rate of -0.3 meters per second was excellent, demonstrating a smooth and controlled descent.

One area for improvement was the runway touchdown position, which was slightly misaligned by 5.0 meters from the centerline. This may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's approach or a minor issue with the aircraft's navigation system. However, this did not appear to have any significant impact on the overall safety of the landing.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a gentle headwind of 2 knots at 269°. The crosswind was negligible, at 0 knots, which made the landing even more straightforward. Overall, the pilot's performance during this landing was impressive, and with a few minor adjustments, they can continue to improve their skills and achieve even higher scores.
