Pattern Downwind

Spacing cues are relative to your eyepoint, so two simmers with different FOV settings following the same wingtip cue fly patterns half a mile different in width, and a wide FOV compresses depth so the runway on base looks further away than it is, biasing you towards a late turn. Pick a camera position and FOV, save it, and never change it, because every judgement you calibrate is calibrated to that picture.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport, where the DA40-NG aircraft took off with a takeoff distance of 626 meters, which is 35% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 70 knots. At the time of departure, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 270 degrees, resulting in a negligible headwind or crosswind component.

As the aircraft entered the right-hand traffic pattern from runway 23, it demonstrated a quick and efficient turn, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in just 16 seconds. The subsequent right-hand pattern crosswind turn also showed good handling, with a distance of less than 1 nautical mile covered in 19 seconds. The pattern downwind turn was completed with a distance of 1 nautical mile, and the aircraft maintained a 45-degree angle to the runway, with a turn angle of 27.3 degrees.

The final approach to runway 05 at EGPE Inverness Airport was made from the southwest, with a heading of 49.0 degrees at an altitude of 107 feet above ground level (agl) and a distance of 0 nautical miles from the runway. The landing on runway 05 was successful, with a threshold speed that was slightly below the target speed of 66 knots. The touchdown distance was good, at 191 meters, and the touchdown speed was also within acceptable limits, at 54 knots. The touchdown rate was perfect, at -42 feet per minute (fpm), and the runway touchdown alignment was spot on.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were the same as those at departure, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 270 degrees, resulting in a negligible tailwind component. The total flight distance was 4 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 3 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 1 kilogram of fuel during the flight.
