See Departure Climb 2

A good takeoff has a defined shape. It also has a defined end. For an airliner that's thrust reduction and acceleration, commonly somewhere around 1,000 to 1,500 ft above the airfield depending on the operator, while for a light aircraft it's established at Vy with the flaps on schedule. Most simmers have no defined end to their takeoff, which is exactly why it never gets judged.

The takeoff from the side: the height above the runway against the distance along it. The numbers along the runway are the speeds reached at each point. Lifting off in the amber last quarter of the runway costs marks for the roll length.

The roll from above, with your left at the top. The line is where the wheels went, and "widest" is the furthest you drifted off the centreline. Lifting off before the amber 75 % line gets full marks for the roll length. The arrow beside the runway is the crosswind, pointing the way the air was moving, so it pushed the aircraft that way.

How to read this

Your height above the runway against the distance still to go. The glideslope is the steady descent path to the aiming point, 1,000 ft past the threshold: 3° here, which is about 320 ft for every nautical mile out, crossing the threshold at about 50 ft. The row under the distances is the height it puts you at. Inside the green band your path is drawn green; outside it, amber.

How to read this

Looking down from above, flying left to right towards the runway: up the page is left of the centreline, down is right. Sideways distances are stretched so that small drifts show, so a line that looks wild here may be only a few tens of feet. The labels are how far off you were at each distance, amber when outside the band.

How to read this

Your indicated airspeed down the final, against the approach speed for this aircraft at its landing weight. The band allows 5 kt slow and more on the fast side further out, closing as you get lower, because the speed is expected to come off on the way down. The figures are knots above (+) or below (−) the approach speed.

The crosswind

Little crosswind (1 kt): nothing to correct for. Touched down with the nose 3° left of the track, 2° of bank.

Wind 234° at 7 kt · 7 kt tail · 1 kt across

How to read this

The wind is the one recorded at the landing, split along the runway (headwind or tailwind) and across it. To hold the centreline in a crosswind the nose points a little into wind - the crab - and is straightened with rudder just before the wheels touch, often with the into-wind wing lowered to stop the drift. These are the nose against the direction you were actually moving, and the wings, at the moment of touchdown. Shown for reading; not marked.

The stop

From 73 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 10 s, an average deceleration of 0.26 g.

How to read this

Your ground speed from the moment the wheels touched until you were down to taxi speed, against the distance rolled. A steep line is hard braking, a shallow one a long, gentle roll. For scale, an airliner's lowest autobrake setting decelerates at about 0.15 g, a medium one about 0.3 g. Shown for reading; not marked.

The last stretch of the approach and the touchdown, from the side. The height is stretched so that the last few feet show: 80 ft top to bottom, against 5,000 ft across. The dashed line is the ideal, 50 ft over the threshold and down 1,000 ft in. The flare ring is where you began raising the nose, and "descent slowed" is where the sink came off; the figures beside them are the sink rate, pitch and speed at that point.

Lined up with the side view above, so a point on one sits under the same point of the other. On top, how fast you were coming down: 0 is level, and −600 is 600 ft a minute down. Below, the pitch.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 08 at KLCI Laconia Municipal Airport. The Pesim FPV Drone Racer took off with a takeoff distance of 1,527 feet, which accounted for 27% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 84 knots, and the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 85 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 6 knots at 232 degrees.

As the drone climbed, it started its enroute climb overhead the airport, reaching an altitude of 1,254 feet above sea level from an initial altitude of 950 feet. This climb of 304 feet was achieved in just 1 minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. Following the climb, the drone entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 2 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile.

The final approach to runway 08 was initiated from the southwest, with the drone heading at 68.0 degrees at an altitude of 66 feet above ground level. The landing was executed on the runway, which had a length of 5,632 feet. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 77 knots. The touchdown distance was 957 feet, and the touchdown speed was 64 knots, both of which were considered good. The touchdown rate was an excellent -91 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good.

The local weather conditions during the landing were similar to those at takeoff, with a temperature of 85 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 7 knots at 233 degrees. The crosswind was 2 knots, and the tailwind was 7 knots. The total landing distance was 1,765 feet, which accounted for 31% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.

The total flight distance was 3 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 3 minutes. The drone used -1 pound of fuel during the flight, indicating a slight decrease in fuel weight. Overall, the flight was executed smoothly, with good weather conditions and a controlled descent.
