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.

Flight narrative

Departure from Groningen Airport Eelde, EHGG, commenced with a roll on runway 23. The aircraft, a Savage Carbon, accelerated down the 171-meter-long runway, utilizing only 7% of its available length to achieve liftoff at a speed of 50 knots. Local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius, with a wind of 11 knots blowing from 277 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 8 knots and a headwind of 8 knots, which presented a manageable challenge for the aircraft.

As the aircraft transitioned to the enroute phase, it began its initial climb overhead the town of Yde, situated in the province of Drenthe, Netherlands. The climb from 413 feet above sea level to 570 feet above sea level was achieved in just 1 minute, with a vertical gain of 157 feet and a horizontal distance of 1 nautical mile. This was followed by a series of enroute maneuvers, including a descent from 568 feet above sea level to 19 feet above sea level, a level cruise at 19 feet above sea level, and subsequent climbs and descents. Notably, the second climb from 19 feet above sea level to 673 feet above sea level was the most significant, with a vertical gain of 655 feet in 2 minutes.

The enroute phase concluded with a descent from 672 feet above sea level to 179 feet above sea level, a decrease of 493 feet in 2 minutes. The total flight distance of 6 nautical miles was achieved in 10 minutes, with no fuel consumption reported. The aircraft's efficient performance and handling capabilities were evident throughout the flight, as it navigated the various enroute maneuvers with ease.

Landing Summary

Savage Carbon executed a final approach to runway 05 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde from the south-west, maintaining a heading of 51.0 ° at 0 nm and 114 ft AGL. Local conditions were 15 °C with wind 11 kt from 277 °, including an 8 kt crosswind component and an 8 kt tailwind component.

The aircraft achieved a good threshold height, but the threshold speed was well above target at 48 kt.

Touchdown occurred 198 m down the runway at a speed of 34 kt, with a vertical rate of minus 67 fpm. The touchdown point was slightly misaligned, being 4.6 m off the centreline.

To bring the landing closer to optimal performance, aim to achieve the prescribed threshold speed rather than the higher value recorded, and refine the final alignment to reduce the 4.6 m centreline deviation.
