Maintain the centreline

Departure Roll

A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

Flight narrative

The flight in the Cessna Skyhawk began at 3N6 Old Bridge, with a quick 3-minute taxi from the parking area to the runway. The departure roll on runway 06 was smooth, with the aircraft using only 28% of the 718 ft runway before reaching liftoff speed of 53 kn. The local weather at the time of departure was favorable, with a temperature of 62 °F and a 6 kn wind coming from 124 °, resulting in a 1 kn headwind.

Once in the air, the enroute climb began 1 mile west of Robertsville, New Jersey. The aircraft climbed from 701 ft above sea level to 2,887 ft, covering 4 nm in just 3 minutes. The next phase of the flight was a level cruise, which started 1 mile northeast of South Old Bridge and lasted 5 minutes, covering 10 nm.

The landing took place on runway 04 at KCDW Essex County Airport, where the runway length was 4,047 ft. The height at the threshold was 22 ft above ground level, and the aircraft was at a speed of 48 kn. The touchdown occurred 664 ft from the threshold, with a touchdown speed of 40 kn and a descent rate of -190 ft/m. The local weather at the time of landing was a temperature of 65 °F and a 9 kn wind coming from 179 °, resulting in a 4 kn crosswind and an 8 kn tailwind. The total landing distance was 1,851 ft, which accounted for 46% of the runway.

After landing, the taxi back to the parking area from the runway was quick, taking only 1 minute to cover less than 1 nm. The total flight distance for this journey was 33 nm, which took 38 minutes and used 18 lbs of fuel.
