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.

The departure roll took place on runway 28 at the Cheboygan County Airport, with the aircraft lifting off after a takeoff distance of 654 feet, which accounted for 16% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 58 knots.

As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it encountered local weather conditions of a temperature of 74°F and a wind speed of 4 knots from a direction of 270°. The crosswind was negligible, but there was a headwind of 4 knots. The enroute climb started overhead the Cheboygan County Airport, where the aircraft climbed from an altitude of 973 feet above sea level to 1,094 feet, an increase of 122 feet, in less than 1 minute and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

The enroute level cruise began 1 mile northwest of the Cheboygan County Airport and lasted for 4 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 6 nautical miles. The flight then proceeded to the Mackinac County Airport, where a go-around was performed on runway 25 at an altitude of 37 feet above ground level.

The final approach to runway 25 was made from the northeast, with the aircraft heading 248.0° at an altitude of 164 feet above ground level and a distance of 0 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was successful, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 48 knots and a touchdown distance of 626 feet, which was 38% of the runway length. The touchdown rate was perfect at -4 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were the same as during the takeoff, with a temperature of 74°F and a wind speed of 4 knots from a direction of 269°. The crosswind was 2 knots, and the headwind was 4 knots. The total landing distance was 1,420 feet, and the runway rollout alignment was perfect. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, a process that took 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

In total, the flight covered a distance of 22 nautical miles and took 29 minutes to complete, using 14 pounds of fuel.
