This aircraft, a GA-8 Airvan Commuter identified by the registration number N13AV, began its flight at Mount Rule Farm Airstrip Douglas in the Isle of Man. The climb from the airstrip, which is situated at 319 feet above sea level, reached a height of 1,455 feet within 2 minutes, resulting in a net increase of 1,136 feet and covering 2 nautical miles.
Following the initial climb, the aircraft transitioned to a level cruise, flying 2 miles southwest of Laxey, another location on the Isle of Man. This cruising position was maintained for 3 minutes, during which time the aircraft covered 3 nautical miles.
The next phase of the flight involved another climb, this time initiated from the town of Laxey, which is also located on the Isle of Man. Climbing from 751 feet to 909 feet above sea level within a period of 3 minutes, the aircraft achieved a rise of 158 feet while covering 4 nautical miles.
The final segment of the flight involved a descent into Mount Rule Farm Airstrip, where the pilots set a heading of 276.0 ° from the east while at an altitude of 584 feet above ground level, 1 nautical mile away from the runway. The conditions on the day of the flight were favorable with a moderate temperature of 15 °C and a gentle headwind of 2 kt blowing from 270 degrees.
Upon landing on runway 28 at Mount Rule Farm Airstrip, the aircraft experienced good touchdown conditions. The threshold height was sufficient, and the threshold speed of 76 kt was above the target speed. The touch-down distance of 181 meters and the touch-down speed of 60 kt were both within acceptable limits. Moreover, the aircraft touched down with a perfect rate of descent of 116 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was spot on.
The landing distance covered by the aircraft totaled to 436 meters, which translates to 80% of the runway's length. During rollout, the aircraft maintained perfect alignment with the runway. Taking the entire flight into account, the aircraft flew a total distance of 9 nautical miles and utilized 5 kg of fuel over a flying period of 8 minutes.

The GA-8 Airvan Commuter N13AV scored a commendable 91.8% in this landing assessment. The aircraft, approaching from the east, successfully navigated the final approach to runway 28 at the Mount Rule Farm Airstrip, located at EGZW. Initially, the aircraft was 1 nautical mile away from the runway at an altitude of 584 feet above ground level (agl) and heading in a direction of 276.0°.
As the aircraft touched down, it achieved a good rate of descent, with a final touchdown rate of 116 feet per minute, perfectly aligning with the runway threshold. The touchdown distance was also within acceptable limits at 181 meters. This indicates that the pilot maintained a well-balanced approach to the landing, taking into consideration factors such as airspeed and altitude to ensure a smooth touchdown.
The landing speed of 60 knots was considered good, with the threshold speed being above the target mark at 76 knots. This margin ensures that the aircraft had sufficient kinetic energy to absorb the impact of the touchdown, preventing any potential loss of control. The aircraft then rolled out perfectly, maintaining alignment with the runway as it slowed down.
Weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a relatively light headwind of 2 knots. The absence of crosswind reduced the complexity of the landing maneuver, allowing the pilot to focus on maintaining a stable approach and smooth touchdown. The landing distance of 436 meters was well within the 80% limit of the available runway length of 545 meters. Overall, this landing assessment highlights the pilot's skill and attention to detail, resulting in a commendable score.
