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

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport, a Scottish airport located in the Highland region. The aircraft, a SUPER DECATHLON, successfully took off after covering a takeoff distance of 126 meters, which accounted for 7% of the runway's length. The liftoff speed was recorded at 66 knots.

As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind blowing at 2 knots from a direction of 269 degrees. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 2 knots. The enroute climb started overhead the airport, where the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 643 feet above sea level to 908 feet, a vertical gain of 265 feet, within a minute and covering a distance of 2 nautical miles.

Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 2 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. This phase took place 1 mile west of Ardersier, another location in the Highland region of Scotland. The final approach to runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport was initiated from the north-east, with the aircraft heading towards the runway at a bearing of 222.0 degrees and an altitude of 84 feet above ground level.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway at a speed of 52 knots, which was considered good. The touchdown point was located 171 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown rate was smooth at -144 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating a precise and controlled landing. The local weather conditions remained the same, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind blowing at 2 knots from a direction of 269 degrees.

The total landing distance covered by the aircraft was 973 meters, which accounted for 54% of the runway's length. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating a smooth and controlled deceleration of the aircraft after touchdown. The total flight distance was 5 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 5 minutes. Notably, the aircraft used no fuel during the flight, suggesting an extremely efficient operation.

Landing report
Landing on runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport in the SUPER DECATHLON
Landing Score 87.41 %
Landing Summary

The SUPER DECATHLON aircraft successfully landed at EGPE Inverness Airport, achieving a score of 87.4%. The final approach to runway 23 was initiated from the north east, with a heading of 222.0° at an altitude of 84 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 171 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively safe distance considering the runway length of 1,814 meters. The touchdown speed of 52 knots was within the acceptable range, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown rate of -144 feet per minute (fpm) was also smooth, suggesting that the pilot maintained a stable and even approach.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a gentle headwind of 2 knots at 269°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, which further contributed to a stable and controlled approach.

However, there were some areas for improvement. The threshold height at 65 feet agl was above the target, indicating that the pilot may have been slightly high on the approach. Additionally, the threshold speed was too high at 90 knots, which could have resulted in a longer landing distance if not corrected.

Despite these minor issues, the overall performance of the SUPER DECATHLON aircraft was impressive, with a total landing distance of 973 meters, which is 54% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control and stability throughout the landing process. Overall, the landing was successful, and with some minor adjustments, the pilot can achieve an even higher score in the future.
