Smooth the climb

Departure Climb 2

A good takeoff has a defined shape. It also has a defined end. For an airliner that's thrust reduction and acceleration, commonly somewhere around 1,000 to 1,500 ft above the airfield depending on the operator, while for a light aircraft it's established at Vy with the flaps on schedule. Most simmers have no defined end to their takeoff, which is exactly why it never gets judged.

Flight narrative

The flight, flown by Savage Norden, began at the KGIF Winter Haven Regional Airport - Gilbert Field, where the aircraft departed from runway 05. The takeoff distance was a mere 90 feet, which is just 2% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 32 knots, indicating a smooth and efficient departure.

As the aircraft lifted off the ground, it was met with local weather conditions of 72°F temperature and a wind speed of 11 knots at 71 degrees. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 10 knots. These conditions presented a moderate challenge for the pilot, but the aircraft handled it well.

The enroute climb started shortly after departure, as the aircraft ascended from an initial altitude of 532 feet above sea level to 821 feet, a gain of 289 feet in just 1 minute. This rapid climb covered a distance of 2 nautical miles, demonstrating the aircraft's impressive rate of ascent.

Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 3 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. This steady and stable flight phase allowed the pilot to maintain a consistent altitude and airspeed.

As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its final approach to landing, descending from an altitude of 115 feet above ground level to touch down on the runway. The descent was smooth and controlled, with a decrease in altitude of 47 feet in just 10 seconds.

The touchdown was made at a speed of 32 knots, with an excellent touchdown rate of -80 feet per minute. The touchdown distance was also good, measuring 543 feet. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were similar to those at departure, with a temperature of 72°F and a wind speed of 6 knots at 60 degrees.

The crosswind component was 3 knots, while the headwind component was 5 knots. These conditions presented a relatively calm environment for the landing, allowing the pilot to bring the aircraft safely to the ground.
