The flight began with a departure roll from runway 28 at EGSF Peterborough Business Airport, where the aircraft, a Piper Aerostar 600 with the registration NI22PC, took off with a takeoff distance of 445 meters, which accounted for 51% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 98 knots, and the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 270 degrees.

As the aircraft entered the right-hand pattern, it did so from runway 28, with the entry distance being less than 1 nautical mile in 19 seconds. The right-hand pattern crosswind was from runway 28, and the distance covered during this phase was 1 nautical mile in 27 seconds. The aircraft then proceeded to the downwind turn, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles at an angle of 63.9 degrees to the runway. The downwind leg itself was less than 1 nautical mile in 17 seconds.

The base leg turn was the next phase, where the aircraft covered a distance of 2 nautical miles at an angle of 62.5 degrees to the runway. The base leg was less than 1 nautical mile in 25 seconds, and the final turn was less than 1 nautical mile in 30 seconds. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 28 from the east, heading 276.0 degrees at a distance of 1 nautical mile and an altitude of 436 feet above ground level.

The landing on runway 28 was successful, with a threshold speed that was a little below the target at 83 knots.

Landing Score 99.87 %

Landing Summary

The aircraft, a Piper Aerostar 600 with the registration NI22PC, successfully landed at EGSF Peterborough Business Airport on runway 28. The pilot demonstrated exceptional skill and control throughout the final approach, achieving a score of 99.9%. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the east, heading 276.0° at a distance of 1 nautical mile and an altitude of 436 feet above ground level.

The landing was executed with precision, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a distance of 94 meters. This is a relatively short touchdown distance, indicating that the pilot had a good understanding of the aircraft's speed and altitude. The touchdown speed of 76 knots was also within the acceptable range, suggesting that the pilot had successfully managed the aircraft's descent and speed.

One notable aspect of the landing was the threshold speed, which was slightly below the target speed of 83 knots. However, this did not appear to have any significant impact on the overall performance of the landing. The touchdown rate of -62 feet per minute was excellent, indicating that the pilot had successfully controlled the aircraft's descent and avoided any excessive deceleration.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 16°C and a light wind of 2 knots from 270°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind component and a slight headwind of 2 knots. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot had successfully aligned the aircraft with the runway and executed a smooth touchdown.

Overall, the landing was a textbook example of a well-executed approach and touchdown, with the pilot demonstrating exceptional skill and control throughout the maneuver.
