The flight began with a departure roll from runway 16 at Cork Airport, EICK. The aircraft, a Van's RV-8, accelerated down the runway and lifted off at a speed of 83 knots. The takeoff distance was a relatively short 39 meters, which is just 2% of the runway's total length.
As the aircraft entered the local traffic pattern, it made a left-hand entry from runway 16. The turn was completed in a swift 12 seconds, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The pilot then made a left-hand pattern crosswind turn, which took 23 seconds to complete and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The aircraft then began its downwind turn, which took 1 nautical mile to complete and involved a 45-degree angle to the runway. The pilot then flew the downwind leg, which lasted for 101 seconds and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
As the aircraft approached the runway, it made a final approach from the north, heading 161.0 degrees at an altitude of 163 feet above ground level. The pilot then landed on runway 16, which is 2,119 meters long. The touchdown was smooth, with a speed of 54 knots and a rate of descent of -156 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the pilot was able to bring the aircraft to a stop in a short distance.
The total landing distance was 368 meters, which is just 17% of the runway's total length. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft throughout the landing process. The total flight distance was 2 nautical miles, and the flight took 3 minutes to complete. The aircraft used a total of 1 kilogram of fuel during the flight.

The Van's RV-8 aircraft successfully landed at Cork Airport, achieving a high score of 98.2%. The final approach to runway 16 was conducted from the north, with a heading of 161.0° at an altitude of 163 feet above ground level (agl) and a distance of 0 nautical miles from the runway.
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 69 knots, suggesting that the pilot may have been slightly late in initiating the flare. Despite this, the touchdown distance of 215 meters was good, and the touchdown speed of 54 knots was also within acceptable limits.
The touchdown rate of -156 feet per minute (fpm) was good, indicating a controlled and gentle touchdown. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's skill and precision in aligning the aircraft with the runway centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 0°C and a wind speed of 7 knots from a direction of 210°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 4 knots. These conditions presented a moderate challenge for the pilot, but the aircraft's performance and the pilot's skills were sufficient to overcome them.
The total landing distance of 368 meters was 17% of the runway length, indicating a short and controlled rollout. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was a success, with the aircraft touching down smoothly and coming to a stop in a controlled and precise manner.
