The flight began with a departure roll from runway 16 at PASO Seldovia Airport, where the aircraft, a PA28 Warrior II, accelerated down the 394-meter runway, using only 50% of its length to take off. The liftoff speed was achieved at 71 knots, marking the start of the aircraft's ascent into the sky.
As the aircraft climbed, it began its enroute climb phase, which started overhead Seldovia, Alaska. From an initial altitude of 150 feet above sea level, the aircraft rapidly ascended to 580 feet, a gain of 429 feet in just one minute, while covering a distance of one nautical mile. This impressive climb rate allowed the aircraft to quickly reach its cruising altitude.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered its level cruise phase, which lasted for three minutes and covered another nautical mile. This stable and efficient cruise phase allowed the aircraft to conserve fuel and maintain a steady altitude.
As the flight progressed, the aircraft began its final approach to runway 34 at PASO Seldovia Airport, coming in from the south at a heading of 9.0 degrees and an altitude of 23 feet above ground level. The aircraft maintained a steady descent, with the pilot carefully controlling the aircraft's speed and altitude to ensure a smooth landing.
The landing itself was a success, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 51 knots and a distance of 146 meters. The touchdown rate was perfect, at -48 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The aircraft's speed was slightly below the target threshold speed, but still within a safe margin.
After landing, the aircraft rolled out of the runway, maintaining perfect alignment and control. The total landing distance was 324 meters, which was only 41% of the runway's length. The pilot's skill and control allowed the aircraft to come to a stop quickly and safely.
In total, the flight covered a distance of three nautical miles, using a total of five minutes of flight time and burning 65 kilograms of fuel. The flight was a testament to the pilot's skill and the aircraft's performance, with a smooth and efficient flight from takeoff to landing.
