Top opportunity

Smooth the climb

Departure Climb 2

A good takeoff has a defined shape. It also has a defined end. For an airliner that's thrust reduction and acceleration, commonly somewhere around 1,000 to 1,500 ft above the airfield depending on the operator, while for a light aircraft it's established at Vy with the flaps on schedule. Most simmers have no defined end to their takeoff, which is exactly why it never gets judged.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 20 at KUZA Rock Hill - York County Airport. The aircraft, a PA28 Warrior II, accelerated down the runway and lifted off at a speed of 76 kn, covering a takeoff distance of 374 ft, which was 7% of the runway length. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 56 °F and a wind speed of 6 kn from a direction of 220 °, resulting in a crosswind of 3 kn and a headwind of 5 kn.

As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead the airport. The climb was from an initial altitude of 1,074 ft above sea level to a final altitude of 1,366 ft, an increase of 292 ft in just 1 minute, covering a distance of 1 nm. This rapid climb was a testament to the aircraft's performance capabilities.

Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 3 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nm. This cruise phase took place 1 mile south of India Hook, South Carolina, and provided the pilot with an opportunity to assess the aircraft's performance and fuel efficiency.

As the flight progressed, the aircraft began its final approach to runway 20 at KUZA Rock Hill - York County Airport. The approach was made from the north, with the aircraft heading 191.0 ° and flying at an altitude of 364 ft above ground level, 1 nm from the runway threshold. The local weather conditions remained the same, with a temperature of 56 °F and a wind speed of 6 kn from a direction of 220 °, resulting in a crosswind of 3 kn and a headwind of 5 kn.

The landing was executed smoothly, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 60 kn and a distance of 1,137 ft. The touchdown rate was excellent, at -71 fpm, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 70 kn, but the overall landing was considered good.

In conclusion, the flight was a successful one, with the aircraft performing well in terms of takeoff, climb, cruise, and landing. The total flight distance was 5 nm, and the flight duration was 5 minutes, during which the aircraft used 3 lbs of fuel. The local weather conditions remained consistent throughout the flight, with a temperature of 56 °F and a wind speed of 6 kn from a direction of 220 °.

Landing Summary

The PA28 Warrior II aircraft successfully landed at KUZA Rock Hill - York County Airport, achieving a perfect score of 100.0%. The final approach was conducted from the north, heading 191.0° at 1 nautical mile and 364 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated excellent control and precision as it descended onto runway 20, which has a length of 5,502 feet.

The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct altitude as it approached the runway. The threshold speed, however, was slightly above the target speed of 70 knots. Despite this minor deviation, the aircraft still managed to achieve a good touchdown distance of 1,137 feet. The touchdown speed of 60 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilot's ability to control the aircraft's descent and speed.

One of the most impressive aspects of this landing was the touchdown rate, which was an excellent -71 feet per minute (fpm). This indicates that the aircraft touched down smoothly and quickly, with minimal impact on the runway. The runway touchdown alignment was also perfect, showing that the pilot had excellent control over the aircraft's direction and trajectory.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 56°F and a wind speed of 6 knots from 220°. The crosswind component was relatively light at 3 knots, while the headwind component was 5 knots. These conditions would have presented a manageable challenge for the pilot, and the successful landing is a testament to their skill and experience. Overall, this landing was a textbook example of a well-executed approach and landing, with the pilot demonstrating excellent control and precision throughout the entire process.
