See Pattern Base Leg Turn

Base. Turn 90 degrees towards the runway when the threshold sits about 45 degrees behind your shoulder. Descend at around 80 kt with second-stage flap. The geometry of that 45-degree cue isn't arbitrary. It produces a base leg long enough to lose roughly 500 ft at about 500 fpm before the final turn. Once you know that's what the cue is for, you can derive your own turn point for any aircraft and any speed.

Speed and pitch

From brake release to the end of the climb, against time, then the takeoff point by point.

Lifted off at 63 kt with 6.2° 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.

Reached 35 ft 82 m past the runway end; then climbing at 810 fpm on average to 221 ft.

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.

Plan view the roll down the 714 m runway.

Rolled from 570 m in, never more than 0.3 m off the centreline. Airborne 84 % of the way down the runway, past the 75 % line.

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.

From 53 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 14 s, an average deceleration of 0.08 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.

Side view — the last 714 m of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 6 ft, 44 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 171 m in, 134 m short of the ideal 305 m.

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 714 m across. The dashed line is the ideal, 50 ft over the threshold and down 305 m 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 270 fpm at 5 ft to 110 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 1.1° 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.

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 a departure roll from runway 21 at EGAD Newtownards Airport, where the PA28 Archer II aircraft successfully took off in 79 meters, covering 11% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 64 knots, and the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 5 knots at 262°, resulting in a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 3 knots.

As the aircraft entered the right-hand pattern from runway 21, it demonstrated impressive agility, completing the turn in less than 1 nautical mile in 27 seconds. The subsequent right-hand pattern crosswind turn was even quicker, taking only 13 seconds to complete. The pattern downwind turn covered a distance of 1 nautical mile, with an angle to the runway of 55.5°, while the downwind leg was completed in less than 1 nautical mile in 7 seconds.

The pattern base leg turn was another challenging maneuver, requiring the aircraft to cover a distance of 1 nautical mile at an angle of 118.7° to the runway. The base leg itself was completed in 23 seconds, and the final turn was the longest, taking 86 seconds to complete. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 03 from the southwest, maintaining a heading of 31.0° at an altitude of 25.2 meters above ground level.

However, the pilot decided to execute a go-around at an altitude of 1.5 meters above ground level, likely due to a change in weather conditions or a loss of situational awareness. The aircraft then re-established its approach and landed successfully on runway 03, which had a length of 714 meters. The touchdown speed was slightly below the target at 59 knots, but the touchdown distance was good at 146 meters, and the touchdown speed was 52 knots, which was considered acceptable.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.4 meters from the centerline, but the runway rollout alignment was very good. The total landing distance was 456 meters, covering 64% of the runway. The flight used a total of 3 nautical miles of distance, taking 6 minutes to complete, and consumed -2 kilograms of fuel. Overall, the flight demonstrated the PA28 Archer II's agility and maneuverability, as well as its ability to handle challenging weather conditions.
