Pattern Crosswind

Each lap slightly wider and higher than the last, because you're unconsciously using the previous lap as your reference instead of the runway and the numbers. Invisible lap to lap, unmistakable across ten. This is the failure that only measurement catches, because your memory of lap three is gone by lap eight.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 30 at EGHJ Bembridge Airport, where the DA40-XLS aircraft took off with a takeoff distance of 64 meters, which accounted for 9% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 64 knots. At the time of departure, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots at 269 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 2 knots.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand pattern from runway 30, it demonstrated a swift and efficient maneuver, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in just 16 seconds. The subsequent left-hand pattern crosswind leg also showed impressive agility, with the aircraft completing the turn in less than 1 nautical mile in 30 seconds. The pattern downwind leg was slightly longer, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles in 75 seconds.

The aircraft then began its approach to runway 30, executing a base leg turn with a distance of 1 nautical mile and an angle to the runway of 45 degrees at 5.1 degrees. The final approach was made from the south-east, with the aircraft heading at 297.0 degrees at an altitude of 208 feet above ground level (agl) and a distance of 0 nautical miles from the runway.

The landing on runway 30 was successful, with the aircraft touching down at a distance of 30 meters and a speed of 59 knots, which was slightly below the target threshold speed of 61 knots. The touchdown rate was excellent at -64 feet per minute (fpm), and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions remained the same, with a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots at 269 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 2 knots.

In conclusion, the flight was characterized by efficient and precise maneuvers, with the aircraft demonstrating excellent handling and control throughout the flight. The total flight distance was 3 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 3 minutes, with a fuel consumption of 1 kilogram.

Landing Summary

The DA40-XLS aircraft successfully landed at EGHJ Bembridge Airport, achieving a perfect score of 100.0%. The final approach was conducted from the south east, aligning with the runway 30 heading of 297.0°. At the commencement of the approach, the aircraft was at 0 nm and 208 ft above ground level (agl).

The landing was executed on runway 30, which has a length of 685 meters. The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 61 kt, which may be attributed to the pilot's cautious approach.

The touchdown distance was satisfactory at 30 meters, demonstrating the pilot's ability to control the aircraft's descent and maintain a stable approach. The touchdown speed of 59 kt was also within the acceptable range, indicating that the pilot had successfully managed the aircraft's speed during the landing. The touchdown rate of -64 fpm was excellent, signifying a smooth and controlled descent.

The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot had maintained a stable and aligned approach to the runway. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 16°C and a gentle wind of 2 kt at 269°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 kt, while the headwind component was 2 kt, which may have contributed to the slightly below-target threshold speed.

Overall, the landing was executed with precision and control, demonstrating the pilot's expertise and skill in navigating the DA40-XLS aircraft. The successful landing at EGHJ Bembridge Airport highlights the aircraft's capabilities and the pilot's ability to operate it safely and efficiently.
