Each lap slightly wider and higher than the last, because you're unconsciously using the previous lap as your reference instead of the runway and the numbers. Invisible lap to lap, unmistakable across ten. This is the failure that only measurement catches, because your memory of lap three is gone by lap eight.

How to read this

The lap from above, with the landing direction to the left: the opposite of the runway drawings. The wide pale-blue line is a textbook circuit for your downwind speed - the downwind a mile out for every 100 kt, every turn at 30° of bank - and your track is drawn over it, each leg in the colour of its mark. The numbers are the four turns, the same as on the profile and the cards below. The 45° line from the threshold is the usual point to turn onto base.

How to read this

The same lap straightened out, so the height and the bank can be read together. Each shaded stretch is a turn, numbered as on the plan. The amber line is 30° of bank, and a turn's steepest bank shows red above 32°. "Turn crosswind from" is the lowest height to start the first turn at.

Steep: 37° of bank.

Bank angle in the pattern is conventionally kept to 20 to 30 degrees, and the base-to-final turn is where that convention earns its keep. Stall speed rises with bank because the wing must produce more lift in a turn. Roughly 7 per cent higher at 30 degrees, about 19 per cent at 45, and around 40 per cent at 60. At 65 kt on base you don't have much margin to spend steepening a turn to salvage an overshoot.

How to read this

Your height above the runway against the distance still to go. The glideslope is the steady descent path to the aiming point, 305 m past the threshold: 3° here, which is about 320 ft for every nautical mile out, crossing the threshold at about 50 ft. The row under the distances is the height it puts you at. Inside the green band your path is drawn green; outside it, amber.

How to read this

Looking down from above, flying left to right towards the runway: up the page is left of the centreline, down is right. Sideways distances are stretched so that small drifts show, so a line that looks wild here may be only a few tens of feet. The labels are how far off you were at each distance, amber when outside the band.

Your indicated airspeed down the final, against the approach speed for this aircraft at its landing weight. The band allows 5 kt slow and more on the fast side further out, closing as you get lower, because the speed is expected to come off on the way down.

The crosswind

Wind 150° at 15 kt · 14 kt head · 4 kt across

How to read this

The wind is the one recorded at the landing, split along the runway (headwind or tailwind) and across it. To hold the centreline in a crosswind the nose points a little into wind - the crab - and is straightened with rudder just before the wheels touch, often with the into-wind wing lowered to stop the drift. These are the nose against the direction you were actually moving, and the wings, at the moment of touchdown. Shown for reading; not marked.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 42 ft, close to the 50 ft target. Touched down 567 m in, 263 m past the ideal 305 m.

How to read this

The last stretch of the approach and the touchdown, from the side. The height is stretched so that the last few feet show: 80 ft top to bottom, against 1,524 m across. The dashed line is the ideal, 50 ft over the threshold and down 305 m in. The flare ring is where you began raising the nose, and "descent slowed" is where the sink came off; the figures beside them are the sink rate, pitch and speed at that point.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 16 at UBBB Heydar Aliyev International Airport, where the DA-50 aircraft took off with a takeoff distance of 240 meters, which accounted for 6% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 73 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 14 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 16 knots at 149 degrees.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand pattern from runway 16, it demonstrated impressive agility, completing the turn in less than 1 nautical mile in just 10 seconds. The subsequent left-hand pattern crosswind turn was also executed efficiently, taking less than 1 nautical mile in 20 seconds. The pattern downwind turn covered a distance of 5 nautical miles, with an angle to the runway of 45 degrees and a heading of 166.4 degrees.

The final approach to runway 16 was initiated from the north, with the aircraft heading 168.0 degrees at 1 nautical mile and 288 feet above ground level. The landing on the runway was smooth, with the threshold speed being slightly below the target at 75 knots. The touchdown point was 193 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed of 71 knots was considered good. The touchdown rate was also smooth, at -118 feet per minute.

Notably, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 3.5 meters. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were similar to those at takeoff, with a temperature of 14 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 15 knots at 150 degrees. The crosswind was 4 knots, and the headwind was 14 knots.

The flight was relatively short, covering a total distance of 4 nautical miles in 5 minutes. The aircraft used 4 kilograms of fuel during the flight. Overall, the flight demonstrated good handling and control, with efficient execution of various maneuvers and a smooth landing.
