Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.

What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 5.3°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.

Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.

See Departure Climb 3

Below a thousand feet the aeroplane is slow, heavy and close to the ground. A steep turn loses lift, raises the stall speed and flattens the climb just when the gradient matters most. A normal turn on course is a rate one — fifteen degrees or so, twenty-five at the outside, this penalty is to acknowledge when a turn has stopped being a turn and become a manoeuvre.

Flight narrative

This flight was conducted in a DA40-XLS aircraft, a single-engine, four-seat plane. The pre-flight taxiing process was brief, taking less than a minute to cover a distance of less than one nautical mile from the parking area to the runway. The aircraft departed from runway 32 at EGNM Leeds Bradford Airport, a relatively short takeoff distance of 319 meters, which accounted for only 19% of the runway's total length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 62 knots.

As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered a calm local weather condition, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind of 1 knot from a direction of 269 degrees. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and headwind, making the flight relatively smooth. The enroute climb began overhead Yeadon, a town in the City and Borough of Leeds, England, where the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 1,233 feet above sea level to 1,108 feet, an increase of 125 feet over a distance of 2 nautical miles in just 2 minutes.

The final approach to runway 32 at EGNM Leeds Bradford Airport was conducted from the south-east, with the aircraft heading towards the runway at a bearing of 308.0 degrees, 1 nautical mile away and at an altitude of 426 feet above ground level. The landing was executed successfully, with a touchdown distance of 130 meters, which was well within the runway's length of 1,667 meters. The touchdown speed of 45 knots was also satisfactory, and the touchdown rate of -91 feet per minute was excellent, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.

Throughout the flight, the local weather conditions remained consistent, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 269 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind. The total flight distance was 3 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 4 minutes, during which the aircraft consumed 2 kilograms of fuel. Overall, the flight was executed with precision and control, demonstrating the capabilities of the DA40-XLS aircraft.
