The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking area to the runway, which took approximately 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, an XCub, then departed from runway 10 at KLNA Palm Beach County Park Airport, with a takeoff distance of 182 meters, which accounted for 17% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 45 knots, and the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 32 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots at 99 degrees.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand pattern, it covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 50 seconds. The crosswind leg of the pattern was completed in 34 seconds, also covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The downwind turn was executed at an angle of 73.8 degrees to the runway, with a distance of 1 nautical mile. The downwind leg itself took 117 seconds to complete, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile.

The final approach to runway 10 was made from the west, with a heading of 92.0 degrees at an altitude of 123 feet above ground level (agl) and a distance of 0 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was executed with a threshold speed that was slightly below the target speed of 51 knots. The touchdown distance was good, at 169 meters, and the touchdown speed was also good, at 36 knots. However, the touchdown rate was fair, at -250 feet per minute (fpm).

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline, by 3.4 meters. The total landing distance was 322 meters, which accounted for 30% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned, by 8.6 meters from the centreline. After landing, the aircraft taxied back to the parking area, which took approximately 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

In total, the flight distance was 3 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 9 minutes. The aircraft used 1 kilogram of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 10 at KLNA Palm Beach County Park Airport in the XCub

Landing Score 97.14 %

Landing Summary

The XCub aircraft successfully landed at KLNA Palm Beach County Park Airport, achieving a score of 97.1%. The final approach was conducted from the west, heading 92.0° at an altitude of 123 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway. The aircraft touched down on runway 10, which has a length of 1,059 meters.

The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway threshold. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 51 knots. Despite this, the touchdown distance was good at 169 meters, and the touchdown speed of 36 knots was also within acceptable limits.

The touchdown rate of -250 feet per minute (fpm) was considered fair, suggesting that the aircraft could have been brought down to the ground more smoothly. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.4 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach or landing.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 32°C and a wind speed of 2 knots from 99°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and a headwind of 2 knots, which did not significantly impact the landing.

The total landing distance was 322 meters, which is approximately 30% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft was brought to a stop quickly and efficiently. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.6 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the rollout or braking.

Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score of 97.1%. However, there were some minor deviations in the approach and landing, which may be addressed in future training or practice sessions.
