The flight began with a departure roll from runway 32 at LZLI Ďačov Airstrip, where the Van's RV-8 aircraft took off with a takeoff distance of 173 meters, which accounted for 38% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 80 knots, and the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 3 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 5 knots at 330 degrees. The crosswind was negligible, while the headwind was 5 knots.

As the aircraft entered the right-hand pattern from runway 32, it covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 18 seconds. The subsequent right-hand pattern crosswind leg was completed in just 5 seconds, demonstrating the aircraft's agility and responsiveness. The pattern downwind turn was executed with precision, with a distance of 0 nautical miles and an angle to the runway of 51.8 degrees.

The downwind leg of the pattern was completed in less than 1 nautical mile in 28 seconds, followed by a base leg turn with a distance of 1 nautical mile and an angle to the runway of 49.5 degrees. The base leg itself was covered in less than 1 nautical mile in 14 seconds, and the final turn was completed in less than 1 nautical mile in 24 seconds.

The final approach to runway 32 was made from the southeast, with a heading of 325 degrees at an altitude of 195 feet above ground level. However, the pilot decided to execute a go-around at an altitude of 0 feet, likely due to a change in circumstances or a decision to reattempt the landing.

The landing was eventually made on runway 32, with a threshold speed that was slightly above the target at 69 knots. The touchdown point was located very far down the runway, using more than 50% of the available runway. The touchdown speed was 56 knots, which was considered good, and the touchdown rate was perfect at -4 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was also perfect.

The total landing distance was 269 meters, which accounted for 59% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The total flight distance was 3 nautical miles, and the flight used 2 kilograms of fuel.

Landing on runway 32 at LZLI Ďačov Airstrip in the Van's RV-8

Landing Score 96.6 %

Landing Summary

The Van's RV-8 aircraft successfully landed at LZLI Ďačov Airstrip, achieving a high score of 97.4%. The final approach to runway 32 was conducted from the south east, heading 325.0° at an altitude of 195 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 56 kn, which was considered good. The touchdown point was, however, quite far down the runway, utilizing more than 50% of the available runway length. This suggests that the pilot may have been able to flare the aircraft more effectively to achieve a shorter touchdown distance.

The threshold speed was slightly above the target speed, coming in at 69 kn. This indicates that the pilot may have been able to make some adjustments to the approach to achieve a more optimal touchdown speed. The threshold height was reported as good, suggesting that the pilot maintained a consistent and controlled descent throughout the approach.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 3°C and a wind speed of 5 kn from 330°. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 kn and a headwind of 5 kn, which the pilot effectively managed during the landing.

The total landing distance was 269 meters, which accounted for 59% of the available runway length. This is a relatively long landing distance, but the pilot was able to maintain perfect runway rollout alignment, indicating a high degree of control and precision during the landing.

Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the pilot achieving a high score and demonstrating good control and precision throughout the approach and landing.
