Top opportunity

Maintain a smooth pitch

Departure Roll

When Vr arrives, an abrupt near-full-scale pull, pitch overshoots, a push, and an oscillation through the first 200 ft. It feels like “this aircraft is twitchy” but the actual fault happened before liftoff. The pitch trace needs to show a clean ramp during liftoff.

Landing on runway 14 at LSTS Sankt Stephan Airfield in the Piper PA-24 Comanche
Landing Score 89.57 %
Landing Summary

First, let's acknowledge the positive aspects of the aircraft landing score of 89.6%. The Landing Phase stood out with good threshold height, excellent landing flare, smooth touchdown rate, speed on target, and touchdown distance inside the touchdown zone, showcasing a high level of skill and precision. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was very good, further demonstrating the pilot's proficiency during this phase of the landing.

However, there are areas that need improvement to elevate the overall score and ensure a safer landing experience. In the Approach Phase, it was noted that there was a poor descent path above the glideslope limit and a slight deviation from the target speed. Maintaining a consistent descent path within the glideslope limits and adhering closely to the recommended speed can significantly enhance the approach phase of the landing.

During the Landing Phase, while the landing flare was excellent, there were concerns regarding the bank angle stability. It is important to maintain a stable and controlled bank angle during the landing to ensure a smooth and safe touchdown. Additionally, landing with a tailwind of 6 knots is a critical safety concern that should be addressed to mitigate any potential risks associated with landing in adverse wind conditions.

In the Rollout Phase, the runway alignment was slightly off, with the aircraft being 5.9 meters from the centerline. Ensuring proper alignment with the runway centerline is crucial for a safe and efficient rollout, avoiding any potential runway excursion or deviation from the designated path.

Overall, while the landing showcased strong execution in certain areas, there are specific areas for improvement to enhance overall safety and performance during future landings. Addressing issues such as descent path, speed control, bank angle stability, tailwind considerations, and runway alignment will contribute to a more consistent and effective landing performance, ultimately leading to higher landing scores and a safer aviation environment. Keep up the good work and continue to strive for excellence in all phases of flight operations.
