Top opportunity

Maintain the centreline

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 taxiing period from the parking area to the runway, which took 10 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a PA28 Arrow III, then departed from runway 15 at the Aspen-Pitkin County Airport (Sardy Field). The takeoff distance was 3,023 feet, which accounted for 43% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 81 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 75°F and a wind speed of 17 knots from a direction of 350°.

The wind conditions resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a tailwind of 17 knots. The pilot then entered a left-hand pattern from runway 15, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in just 21 seconds. The subsequent left-hand pattern crosswind leg was completed in 18 seconds, with a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The pilot then proceeded to the downwind turn, which covered a distance of 2 nautical miles at an angle of 56.3° to the runway.

The downwind leg itself was 3 nautical miles long and took 139 seconds to complete. The pilot then turned onto the base leg, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles at an angle of 29.6° to the runway. The base leg was completed in 19 seconds, with a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The final turn was also less than 1 nautical mile in distance and took 15 seconds to complete.

The final approach to runway 15 was made from the northwest, with a heading of 149.0° and an altitude of 480 feet above ground level (agl) at a distance of 1 nautical mile from the runway. The landing was made on runway 15, which had a length of 7,006 feet. The threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was too high at 87 knots. The touchdown point was 1,263 feet beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 73 knots, which was a little fast.

However, the touchdown rate was smooth at -131 feet per minute (fpm), and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 73°F and a wind speed of 14 knots from a direction of 350°, resulting in a crosswind of 2 knots and a tailwind of 14 knots. The total landing distance was 4,226 feet, which accounted for 60% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also very good.

In conclusion, the flight was completed with a total distance of 10 nautical miles, taking 8 minutes to complete, and using 7 pounds of fuel.

Landing on runway 15 at KASE Aspen-Pitkin County Airport (Sardy Field) in the PA28 Arrow III
Landing Score 92.91 %
Landing Summary

The PA28 Arrow III aircraft successfully landed at KASE Aspen-Pitkin County Airport (Sardy Field) with a score of 92.9%. The final approach was initiated from the north-west, heading 149.0° at 1 nm and 480 ft above ground level (agl). The aircraft successfully touched down on runway 15, which has a length of 7,006 ft.

The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed was too high at 87 kt, suggesting that the pilot may have been able to reduce the speed further before touchdown. The touchdown point was 1,263 ft beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively long distance.

The touchdown speed of 73 kt was a little fast, indicating that the pilot may have been able to reduce the speed further before touchdown. However, the touchdown rate was smooth at -131 fpm, which is a good indication of a controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was aligned with the runway centerline at touchdown.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 73°F and a wind speed of 14 kt from 350°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 kt, while the tailwind component was 14 kt. These conditions may have contributed to the slightly long touchdown distance.

The total landing distance was 4,226 ft, which is 60% of the runway length. This is a relatively long distance, but it is not excessively long. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was aligned with the runway centerline during the rollout phase.

Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some areas for improvement, such as reducing the threshold speed and touchdown speed. However, the pilot's skills and the aircraft's performance were sufficient to ensure a safe and controlled landing.
