This flight was conducted in an XCub aircraft, starting with an enroute climb from a location 14 miles southwest of SCTF Taltal Airport in Taltal, Region de Antofagasta, Chile. The aircraft began its ascent from an altitude of 7,376 feet above sea level, reaching a height of 9,740 feet above sea level in just 3 minutes, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles. This impressive climb rate demonstrates the XCub's capabilities.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft transitioned into a level cruise, maintaining a steady altitude and speed as it flew 11 miles southwest of SCTF Taltal Airport. This cruise phase lasted for 8 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 12 nautical miles. This stable and efficient flight phase allowed the pilot to conserve fuel and maintain a steady pace.
As the aircraft approached the final stages of the flight, it began its final approach to runway 22 at SCTF Taltal Airport, coming in from the north east at a heading of 211.0°. The aircraft was at an altitude of 304 feet above ground level and 0 nautical miles from the runway threshold. The pilot carefully guided the aircraft onto the runway, taking care to maintain a safe speed and avoid stalling, as the threshold speed was well below the target.
The landing itself was successful, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 40 knots and a distance of 67 meters. The touchdown rate was a bit hard, at -454 feet per minute, but the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15°C and a gentle wind of 3 knots at 148°, contributed to a smooth landing.
The total landing distance was 271 meters, which accounted for just 29% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilot had maintained control and stability throughout the landing process. The total flight distance was 16 nautical miles, and the flight lasted for 12 minutes, during which the aircraft consumed 4 kilograms of fuel. Overall, this flight was a testament to the XCub's capabilities and the pilot's skill and experience.
