The flight began with a departure roll from runway 32 at LZLI Ďačov Airstrip, where the Van's RV-8 aircraft took off with a takeoff distance of 159 meters, which accounted for 35% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 76 knots, and the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of -4 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots at 265 degrees. The crosswind component was 2 knots, while the headwind component was 1 knot.

As the aircraft entered the right-hand pattern from runway 32, it covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 11 seconds. The right-hand pattern crosswind leg was completed in less than 1 nautical mile in 4 seconds. The pattern downwind turn was executed with a distance of 0 nautical miles, and the angle to the runway was 63.8 degrees. The downwind leg itself took 32 seconds to complete, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

The base leg turn was completed with a distance of 1 nautical mile, and the angle to the runway was 40.4 degrees. The base leg took 12 seconds to complete, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The final turn was completed in less than 1 nautical mile in 21 seconds. The final approach to runway 32 was made from the southeast, with a heading of 324.0 degrees at an altitude of 151 feet above ground level.

However, the pilot decided to execute a go-around at 0 feet above ground level. The aircraft then landed on runway 32, which had a length of 454 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 67 knots. The touchdown point was located very far down the runway, using more than 50% of the available runway. The touchdown speed was a little fast at 62 knots, but the touchdown rate was perfect at -1 foot per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was also perfect.

The total landing distance was 392 meters, which accounted for 86% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.

Landing on runway 32 at LZLI Ďačov Airstrip in the Van's RV-8

Landing Score 90.09 %

Landing Summary

The Van's RV-8 aircraft successfully landed at LZLI Ďačov Airstrip, achieving a score of 92.5%. The final approach to runway 32 was initiated from the south east, heading 324.0° at an altitude of 151 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway. The aircraft maintained a good threshold height, which is a crucial aspect of a safe landing.

Upon touchdown, the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 78 knots, indicating a slightly higher than desired speed. However, the threshold speed was more in line with expectations at 67 knots, suggesting that the pilot was able to adjust their approach to achieve a more suitable speed. The touchdown point was located very far down the runway, utilizing more than 50% of the available length. This may indicate that the pilot could have benefited from a slightly shorter approach or a more precise touchdown point.

The touchdown speed of 62 knots was a little fast, which could have contributed to the long touchdown point. Nevertheless, the touchdown rate was perfect at -1 foot per minute (fpm), indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was also perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain a stable and aligned approach.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of -4°C and a wind speed of 2 knots from 265°. The crosswind component was 2 knots, while the headwind component was 1 knot. Despite these conditions, the pilot was able to maintain a perfect runway rollout alignment, indicating a high level of skill and control.

The total landing distance was 392 meters, which is 86% of the available runway length. This suggests that the pilot was able to bring the aircraft to a stop within a reasonable distance, considering the long touchdown point. Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated a high level of skill and control throughout the approach and touchdown phases.
