Top opportunity

Work on the flare

Arrival Landing

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 16 at CYXL Sioux Lookout Airport, where the Van's RV-14 aircraft took off with a takeoff distance of 511 ft, which is 10% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 71 kt. At the time of departure, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 77 °F and a wind speed of 17 kt at 210 °, resulting in a crosswind of 13 kt and a headwind of 11 kt.

As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead CYXL Sioux Lookout Airport. The aircraft climbed from an altitude of 1,685 ft asl to 2,546 ft asl, an increase of 861 ft in just 1 minute, covering a distance of 2 nm. The climb was a smooth and efficient one, allowing the aircraft to reach its desired altitude quickly.

After reaching its cruising altitude, the aircraft began its enroute descent, which started 1 mile northeast of CYXL Sioux Lookout Airport. The descent was from an altitude of 2,533 ft asl to 1,496 ft asl, a decrease of 1,037 ft in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 1 nm. The descent was also a smooth and controlled one, allowing the aircraft to reach its desired altitude without any issues.

As the aircraft approached the airport for landing, it began its final approach to runway 16 from the northwest, heading 157.0 ° at 0 nm and 252 ft agl. The landing was made on runway 16, which has a length of 5,011 ft. However, the threshold height at 111 ft agl was excessively over target, and the threshold speed was too high at 72 kt.

Despite the initial issues, the touchdown distance was good at 829 ft, and the touchdown speed at 58 kt was a little fast. However, the touchdown rate was heavy at -684 fpm, indicating a slightly rough landing. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 28 ft from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 78 °F and a wind speed of 15 kt at 209 °, resulting in a crosswind of 12 kt and a headwind of 10 kt.

The total landing distance was 1,459 ft, which is 29% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was excessively misaligned by 163 ft from the centreline, indicating a slightly rough rollout. However, the taxiing to the parking from the runway took less than 1 minute and covered less than 1 nm.

Overall, the flight was a relatively short one, covering a total distance of 3 nm and taking 4 minutes to complete. The aircraft used 3 lbs of fuel during the flight, indicating a relatively efficient use of resources.

Landing Score 66.29 %
Landing Summary

The Van's RV-14 aircraft has successfully landed at CYXL Sioux Lookout Airport, but the landing was not without its issues. The final approach was initiated from the north-west, heading 157.0° at an altitude of 252 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway. The aircraft touched down on runway 16, which has a length of 5,011 feet.

However, there were several areas of concern during the landing. The threshold height at 111 feet agl was excessively over target, indicating that the aircraft was higher than it should have been at the point of touchdown. Additionally, the threshold speed was too high at 72 knots, which may have contributed to the issues with the landing. The touchdown speed of 58 knots was a little fast, and the touchdown rate of -684 feet per minute (fpm) was heavy, indicating a hard landing.

The runway touchdown position was also misaligned by 28 feet from the centreline, which may have been due to the pilot's inability to maintain a straight course during the final approach. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 78°F and winds of 15 knots at 209°. The crosswind was 12 knots, and the headwind was 10 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,459 feet, which is 29% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, but it may have been due to the aircraft's high speed and heavy touchdown rate. The runway rollout alignment was excessively misaligned by 163 feet from the centreline, which may have been due to the pilot's difficulty in maintaining control of the aircraft during the rollout.

Overall, while the Van's RV-14 aircraft was able to land safely at CYXL Sioux Lookout Airport, there were several areas of concern during the landing. The pilot will need to work on improving their skills and techniques to achieve a smoother and more controlled landing.
