Know your rotation speed

Departure Roll

A typical trainer rotates in the mid-50s of knots - a 172 at around 55 KIAS, climbing out at a Vy in the low 70s, though check your own POH rather than memorising Cessna's numbers - and the transferable rule is that Vr sits just above the stall speed in takeoff configuration. Rotate early because "it felt ready" and the aircraft lifts off inside ground effect, where induced drag is reduced, then climbs out of it into more drag. On a marginal-performance day the result is an aircraft that lifts off and then refuses to climb, sagging back towards the runway.

Landing on runway 18 at EDFB Reichelsheim Airfield in the CubCrafters CC19 XCub
Landing Score 96.53 %
Landing Summary

Overall, your aircraft landing score of 96.5% is fantastic! Let's break down the different phases of the landing and see where you excelled and where there is room for improvement.

During the Approach Phase, you had a poor descent path above the glideslope limit. This indicates that your vertical speed may have been a bit too high as you descended towards the runway. However, your threshold speed of 55 knots was right on target, which is excellent.

Moving on to the Landing Phase, you had a good threshold height, meaning you were at the correct altitude as you approached the runway. Additionally, your landing flare was perfect, indicating that you executed the transition from descent to touchdown smoothly.

In the Touchdown Phase, your touchdown rate was commendable at -115 feet per minute, showing that you made a smooth contact with the runway. While your touchdown speed of 52 knots was slightly fast, it is still within a safe range. Your touchdown distance of 49 meters is also good, giving you ample space to bring the aircraft to a stop.

One area where there is room for improvement is in the alignment of the runway touchdown position. Being slightly misaligned by 4.5 meters from the centerline can be corrected with more practice and attention to precision during the landing.

Overall, your performance during the different phases of the landing was impressive, with only minor areas that need refinement. Keep up the good work and continue to focus on fine-tuning your skills to achieve an even higher landing score in the future. Good job!
