Descending on downwind. Power comes back abeam, the aircraft isn't re-trimmed, your eyes are outside judging the turn point, and 100 ft leaks away before base. Shows up as a low gate 2, and everything after it is a scramble.

Lifted off at 77 kt with 5.0° of pitch.

How to read this

Two traces from brake release: the airspeed on top, and below it the pitch, which is how far the nose is above the horizon. The figure at liftoff is the pitch then.

How to read this

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.

How to read this

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.

The final from 4 nm.

Profile height against the 3° glideslope, with its 2° band in green.

Inside the glideslope band from 1.2 nm, where the final began, to the threshold, never more than 150 ft above the slope.

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.

Joined 1,530 ft left of the centreline at 1.2 nm, then inside the band from 0.7 nm to the threshold.

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.

Speed against the approach speed. The green band runs from 5 kt slow to 78 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 48 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Inside the speed band all the way, between −3 kt and +13 kt on the approach speed of 77 kt.

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

7 kt across from the left, which takes about 6° of crab to hold the centreline at 65 kt. Touched down straight - the crab taken out before the wheels touched, wings level.

Wind 288° at 14 kt · 12 kt head · 7 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.

Side view — the last 3,212 ft of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 6 ft, 44 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 796 ft in, 204 ft short of the ideal 1,000 ft.

How to read this

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 3,212 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.

Sink and pitch — through the flare, lined up with the side view.

The sink went from 1,020 fpm at 7 ft to 160 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 1.3° on the way down.

How to read this

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. In a flare the nose comes up and the descent slows towards 0. The figure at the touchdown line is your touchdown rate.

How to read this

The runway from above, with your left at the top. Touching down inside the green bracket scores full marks for the distance. The shaded part is the rollout, up to where it ended. The arrow beside the runway is the crosswind, pointing the way the air was moving, so it pushed the aircraft that way.

Flight narrative

The flight began with the Pesim FPV Drone Racer taxiing from the parking area to the runway at KSFZ North Central State Airport. This process took approximately 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The drone then proceeded to depart from runway 23, with a takeoff distance of 1,158 feet, which accounted for 23% of the runway's length. The liftoff speed was recorded at 78 knots.

As the drone entered the traffic pattern, it made a left-hand pattern entry from runway 23, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in just 37 seconds. The drone then made a left-hand pattern crosswind turn, completing the maneuver in a mere 13 seconds. The pattern downwind turn was notable, with a distance of 2 nautical miles and an angle to the runway of 47.8 degrees.

The drone then began its final approach to runway 33, which was located to the southeast. The approach was made from an altitude of 212 feet above ground level (agl) and a heading of 319.0 degrees. The landing on runway 33 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 304 feet and a touchdown speed of 65 knots. The touchdown rate was also good, at -158 feet per minute (fpm).

The local weather conditions during the landing were characterized by a temperature of 94 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 14 knots from a direction of 288 degrees. The crosswind component was 7 knots, while the headwind component was 12 knots. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the runway rollout alignment was perfect.

After landing, the drone taxied to the parking area, a process that took approximately 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 5 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 9 minutes. The drone used a total of 4 pounds of fuel during the flight.
