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 approximately 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a PC-12, then departed from runway 26 at EHDR Drachten Airfield, with a takeoff distance of 388 meters, which accounted for 54% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 97 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 3 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 22 knots at 271 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 21 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting overhead Drachten in the province of Friesland, the Netherlands. The climb took 8 minutes and covered a distance of 36 nautical miles, with the aircraft rising from an altitude of 859 feet above sea level to 17,829 feet.

Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 13 minutes and covered a distance of 453 nautical miles. This phase began 4 miles west of Emden in the state of Lower Saxony, Germany. The aircraft then started its enroute descent, which began 49 miles north of Donskoye in the Kaliningrad Oblast, Russia. The descent took 13 minutes and covered a distance of 56 nautical miles, with the aircraft decreasing its altitude from 17,277 feet above sea level to 1,184 feet.

The final approach to runway 19 at EYPA Palanga International Airport was made from the north, with the aircraft heading at 192.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,154 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 19 was successful, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 77 knots, which was slightly faster than the recommended threshold speed of 83 knots. The touchdown distance was 233 meters, which was within the acceptable range. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.4 meters from the centerline.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 1 degree Celsius, with a wind speed of 11 knots at 280 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 11 knots and a headwind of 1 knot. The total landing distance was 849 meters, which accounted for 43% of the runway.

Landing Summary

The aircraft in question, a PC-12, successfully landed at EYPA Palanga International Airport, with a final approach from the north. The pilot's approach was well-executed, with a heading of 192.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,154 feet above ground level. The aircraft touched down on runway 19, which has a length of 1,976 meters.

The landing was deemed satisfactory, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 83 knots. The touchdown distance was also within acceptable limits at 233 meters. However, the touchdown speed of 77 knots was slightly faster than ideal, which may have contributed to a slightly higher rate of descent. The touchdown rate was smooth at -148 feet per minute, indicating a controlled descent.

One minor issue was noted during the landing, with the runway touchdown position being slightly misaligned by 5.4 meters from the centerline. This may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's approach or a minor issue with the aircraft's navigation system.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 1°C and a wind speed of 11 knots from a direction of 280°. This resulted in a crosswind of 11 knots and a headwind of 1 knot. Despite these conditions, the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft and execute a smooth landing.

The total landing distance was 849 meters, which is approximately 43% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the pilot was able to bring the aircraft to a stop quickly and efficiently. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, with the aircraft coming to a stop in a straight line and without any significant deviations from the centerline. Overall, the landing was a success, with the pilot demonstrating good control and a high level of proficiency.
