Arrival Landing — Flare profile at 60 %, −0.77 points
Departure Taxi — peak taxi speed 33 kt at 86 %, −0.49 points

Next time

Fixing the bounce

See Arrival Touchdown

Fast at the threshold, normal flare, and the runway seems to refuse the aircraft. The instinctive fix - pushing it on - causes the next one. A fast aircraft forced onto the runway touches nosewheel-first or nearly so. The tell is a touchdown that feels soft followed by a bounce that steepens. Pilots fix the bounce recovery; the cause was the 10 knots at the threshold.

The takeoff from the side: the height above the runway against the distance along it. The numbers along the runway are the speeds reached at each point. Lifting off in the amber last quarter of the runway costs marks for the roll length.

Your height above the runway against the distance still to go. The glideslope is the steady descent path to the aiming point, 1,000 ft past the threshold: 3° here, which is about 320 ft for every nautical mile out, crossing the threshold at about 50 ft.

Flight narrative

The Piper PA-24 Comanche taxied from the parking area to runway 16 at Cork Airport (EICK) in 4 minutes, covering approximately 1 nm on the ground.

Departure roll commenced on runway 16 at EICK, with a takeoff run of 1,819 ft (26 % of the runway) and liftoff achieved at 73 kt. Ambient conditions were 58 °F with a 3-kt wind from 160°, providing a 3-kt headwind and no crosswind.

Climb began overhead the departure airport, raising the aircraft from 685 ft asl to 934 ft asl, an altitude gain of 249 ft in 1 minute while covering 1 nm.

A level cruise segment followed overhead Ballygarvan, lasting 2 minutes and extending for 2 nm.

A second climb started 2 mi south of Ballygarvan, increasing altitude from 970 ft asl to 3,431 ft asl, a gain of 2,461 ft in 5 minutes and covering 7 nm.

The aircraft then entered a prolonged cruise 4 mi south of Fountainstown, maintaining level flight for 97 minutes and traversing 251 nm.

Descent commenced overhead Coat-Meal in Bretagne, France, descending from 3,183 ft asl to 745 ft asl, a loss of 2,438 ft in 3 minutes while covering 7 nm.

Final approach to runway 07R at Brest Bretagne Airport (LFRB) involved a descent from 632 ft agl to -139 ft agl over 157 seconds, with the aircraft scoring on the stabilisation gates.

Landing on runway 07R was executed on a 10,157-ft runway; the threshold speed was recorded at 61 kt, touchdown occurred 529 ft down the runway at 55 kt, and the vertical speed at touchdown was minus 273 fpm. Runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and local weather reported 57 °F with a 2-kt wind from 9°, giving a 1-kt headwind and 1-kt crosswind. The total landing roll measured 1,789 ft, representing 18 % of the runway length.

Runway rollout alignment remained perfect throughout the deceleration phase.

The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 2 minutes, covering less than 1 nm on the taxiway.

In total, the flight covered 274 nm, required 119 minutes of elapsed time, and consumed 167 lb of fuel.
