The flight began with a departure roll from runway 16 at Cork Airport, EICK. The aircraft, a PA28 Arrow III, accelerated down the runway, covering a distance of 58 meters, which was just 3% of the runway's length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 67 knots, marking the start of the flight.
As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions of 15°C temperature and a wind speed of 23 knots from a direction of 220°. The crosswind component was 20 knots, while the headwind component was 12 knots. The pilot navigated the aircraft into a left-hand pattern entry from runway 16, completing the maneuver in less than 1 nautical mile in 37 seconds.
The left-hand pattern crosswind was also executed with precision, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in just 20 seconds. The pilot then proceeded to the downwind leg, where the aircraft traveled 2 nautical miles in 85 seconds. The base leg turn was completed at an angle of 52.1° to the runway, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles.
The base leg itself was flown for 1 nautical mile in 63 seconds, before the pilot initiated the final turn. This final turn was completed in less than 1 nautical mile in 26 seconds, setting the aircraft up for a final approach to runway 16 from the north, at a heading of 160.0° and an altitude of 398 feet above ground level.
The final approach was executed with precision, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 63 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 305 meters, and the touchdown rate was excellent at -74 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was also very good, indicating a smooth and controlled landing.
The flight concluded with a total distance of 6 nautical miles, which was covered in 5 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 2 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

The PA28 Arrow III aircraft successfully landed at Cork Airport (EICK) with a score of 97.0%. The final approach was conducted from the north, heading 160.0° at 1 nautical mile and 398 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft was approaching runway 16, which has a length of 2,119 meters.
The landing was executed with good threshold height, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct altitude as it approached the runway threshold. However, the threshold speed was above the target speed, coming in at 82 knots. This may have been due to the aircraft's descent rate or the pilot's decision to maintain a higher speed for a more stable approach.
The touchdown distance of 305 meters was considered good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain control and land smoothly. The touchdown speed of 63 knots was also within acceptable limits, suggesting that the pilot was able to manage the aircraft's speed effectively. The touchdown rate of -74 feet per minute (fpm) was excellent, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown. This is an important factor in ensuring a safe and controlled landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 23 knots from 220°. This resulted in a crosswind component of 20 knots and a headwind component of 12 knots. The pilots would have needed to take these wind conditions into account when planning and executing the landing.
