Pattern Crosswind — Heading 9.2 ° at 72 %, −0.59 points
Arrival Landing — scored 99.34 %, −0.07 points

Next time

Departure

Hold the nose down until the speed reaches 56 kt, then rotate.

What happened: You started the rotation at 38 kt, 18 kt before the 56 kt rotation speed.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 56 kt at rotation

See Departure Roll

Arrival

Adjust heading with coordinated aileron and rudder to bring the crosswind track back toward 9.2° of runway heading.

What happened: On the crosswind leg the heading drifted to 9.2° from the runway track.

Watch for: Heading indicator against the runway track, holding within the target heading band.

See Pattern Crosswind

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.

Flight narrative

Departing from Groningen Airport Eelde, Gabriel White and Green initiated the departure roll on runway 23, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 57 kt within 254 meters, which represented 10% of the runway's length. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 15 °C and a negligible wind of 1 kt at 270°, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand pattern, it demonstrated a swift and precise turn, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 26 seconds. The subsequent crosswind turn was executed with equal agility, requiring 53 seconds to complete the 2-nautical-mile distance. The pattern's downwind turn, with an angle to the runway of 45 degrees, spanned 4 nautical miles, while the downwind leg itself covered 3 nautical miles in 89 seconds. The base leg turn, with an angle to the runway of 23.9 degrees, required 5 nautical miles to complete. The final approach was initiated from the north-east, with a heading of 228.0° at 2 nautical miles and 807 feet above ground level.

The landing on runway 23 was executed with precision, with a touchdown speed of 48 kt and a touchdown distance of 287 meters, which was well within the acceptable range. The touchdown rate was an impressive -65 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The total flight distance was 22 nautical miles, covering the distance in 11 minutes, and the aircraft consumed 5 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
