The flight was conducted in a Piper PA-24-250 Comanche aircraft. Taxiing from the parking area to the runway took less than a minute and covered a distance of less than one nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 25 at EGNT Newcastle Airport, with a takeoff distance of 251 meters, which is 12% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 73 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of the flight were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 270 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 2 knots. The pilot entered the left-hand pattern from runway 25, covering a distance of less than one nautical mile in 24 seconds. The left-hand pattern crosswind leg was completed in 22 seconds, covering a similar distance.

The pilot then proceeded to the downwind turn, which involved a turn of 45 degrees to align with the runway. This turn was completed in a distance of one nautical mile, with an angle of 88.5 degrees to the runway. The downwind leg itself was 2 nautical miles long and took 59 seconds to complete. The base leg turn was another 45-degree turn, this time to align with the runway for landing. This turn was completed in a distance of 2 nautical miles, with an angle of 39.3 degrees to the runway.

The base leg was then completed in less than one nautical mile in 25 seconds. The final turn was made in less than one nautical mile in 23 seconds, setting up the aircraft for the final approach to runway 25. The final approach was made from the north-east, heading 240 degrees, at an altitude of 409 feet above ground level and a distance of one nautical mile from the runway.

The landing was successful, with a touchdown distance of 392 meters and a touchdown speed of 50 knots. The touchdown rate was perfect at -48 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was also perfect. The local weather conditions remained the same during the landing, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 270 degrees.

Landing on runway 25 at EGNT Newcastle Airport in the Piper PA-24-250 Comanche

Landing Score 99.25 %

Landing Summary

The Piper PA-24-250 Comanche successfully landed at EGNT Newcastle Airport, achieving a score of 99.2%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north east, heading 240.0° at 1 nautical mile and 409 feet above ground level (agl). This indicates a precise and controlled approach, with the pilot maintaining a steady heading and altitude.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 25, which has a length of 2,114 meters. The threshold height was good, suggesting that the pilot maintained a safe distance from the runway threshold. The threshold speed, however, was above the target speed, indicating that the pilot may have been able to flare the aircraft more aggressively to reduce the touchdown speed.

The touchdown distance of 392 meters was good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the landing roll. The touchdown speed of 50 knots was also within acceptable limits, suggesting that the pilot was able to slow the aircraft down smoothly and safely. The touchdown rate of -48 feet per minute (fpm) was perfect, indicating that the pilot maintained a steady and controlled descent during the final stages of the approach.

The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot maintained a straight and level approach to the runway. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a wind of 2 knots at 270°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 2 knots, which would have helped to slow the aircraft down during the approach.

Overall, the landing was a success, with the pilot demonstrating excellent control and precision during the approach and landing phases. The high score achieved by the aircraft is a testament to the pilot's skill and experience.
