Next time

Departure

Ease the nose up sooner to lift off at 62 kt instead of letting speed build on the ground.

What happened: The aircraft lifted off at 80 kt, 18 kt above the target liftoff speed.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 62 kt at liftoff

See Departure Roll

Bank angle in the pattern is conventionally kept to 20 to 30 degrees, and the base-to-final turn is where that convention earns its keep. Stall speed rises with bank because the wing must produce more lift in a turn. Roughly 7 per cent higher at 30 degrees, about 19 per cent at 45, and around 40 per cent at 60. At 65 kt on base you don't have much margin to spend steepening a turn to salvage an overshoot.

Flight narrative

Departing from Cibao International Airport, the Cessna Skyhawk began its takeoff roll on runway 11, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 80 kt in 809 meters, which accounted for 31% of the available runway length. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 16 °C and a gentle tailwind of 1 kt from 270°. As the aircraft lifted off, it entered a left-hand traffic pattern, navigating the initial turn in 11 seconds and covering a distance of 1 nm.

The subsequent pattern turns and legs were executed with precision, with the aircraft maintaining a steady pace and adhering to the standard traffic pattern configuration. The downwind turn, for instance, was completed in 1 nm, with an angle to the runway of 47.7°, while the base leg turn was accomplished in 1 nm, with an angle of 33.0°. The final approach was initiated from the west, with the aircraft descending to 217 ft above ground level (agl) at a heading of 103.0°. The landing was smooth, with a touchdown distance of 180 m and a speed of 59 kt, although slightly above the target. The touchdown rate was a respectable -110 fpm, and the runway alignment was perfect.

The flight concluded with a total distance of 8 nm, covering the route in 4 minutes and consuming 2 kg of fuel. The aircraft's performance was satisfactory, considering the favorable weather conditions and the pilot's skillful execution of the traffic pattern. The landing, in particular, was a testament to the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed and altitude, resulting in a smooth and controlled touchdown.
