Departure Hover — bank angle up to 11.9 ° at 58 %, −1.49 points

Next time

Departure

Lower the nose only a little and let the speed build; a steep nose-down attitude trades height for speed.

What happened: The nose went down by up to 34° to accelerate, where 15° is enough.

Watch for: Attitude: nose no lower than 15° while accelerating.

See Departure Transition

Arrival

Line up with the landing spot earlier, so the last part of the approach needs only gentle turns.

What happened: The steepest bank on the approach was 87°, against 20° for full marks.

Watch for: Bank angle: within 20° on the approach.

See Arrival Approach

As you slow through about 20 knots near the end, add collective to offset the loss of translational lift, together with the matching pedal. Keep some forward speed until you're close to the ground.

Flight narrative

Over Pamplona Airport in Navarra, Spain, an Airbus H145 began its enroute climb, ascending from an initial altitude of 2,507 feet above sea level. The aircraft rapidly gained altitude, increasing its height by 1,166 feet in just one minute, while covering a distance of approximately one nautical mile. This initial climb phase set the stage for the aircraft's subsequent operations.

As the Airbus H145 continued on its route, it transitioned into a level cruise phase, maintaining a steady altitude of 3,673 feet above sea level. This phase lasted for three minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of five nautical miles. The cruise phase allowed the aircraft to efficiently utilize its flight path, minimizing fuel consumption and optimizing its overall performance.

The Airbus H145's enroute descent phase began approximately one mile northeast of Itza, Navarra, Spain. The aircraft began its controlled descent from an altitude of 3,196 feet above sea level, decreasing its height by 1,370 feet in two minutes. This descent phase covered a distance of two nautical miles, ultimately bringing the aircraft to an altitude of 1,826 feet above sea level. The total flight distance of nine nautical miles was completed in 11 minutes, with the aircraft consuming zero kilograms of fuel throughout the operation.
