Top opportunity

Maintain a smooth pitch

Departure Roll

When Vr arrives, an abrupt near-full-scale pull, pitch overshoots, a push, and an oscillation through the first 200 ft. It feels like “this aircraft is twitchy” but the actual fault happened before liftoff. The pitch trace needs to show a clean ramp during liftoff.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking area to the runway, which took 12 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Piper Aerostar 600 with the registration NI22PC, then departed from runway 28 at Essex County Airport (KCDW). The takeoff distance was 440 meters, which accounted for 53% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 92 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 319 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 1 knot. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting overhead Fairfield, New Jersey, and ascending from an altitude of 1,213 feet above sea level to 2,971 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,758 feet in just 4 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles.

Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, starting overhead West Orange, New Jersey, and lasting for 7 minutes, during which it covered a distance of 16 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another climb phase, this time starting overhead Riverdale, New York, and ascending from 2,593 feet above sea level to 4,204 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,611 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles.

As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its descent, starting 1 mile northwest of Bronxville, New York, and descending from 4,206 feet above sea level to 1,190 feet above sea level, a decrease of 3,016 feet in just 3 minutes, covering a distance of 7 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting 1 mile southwest of Tarrytown, New York, and lasting for 3 minutes, during which it covered a distance of 5 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 11 at Westchester County Airport (KHPN) was made from the west, with the aircraft heading 134.0 degrees at an altitude of 465 feet above ground level and a distance of 2 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was successful, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 67 knots and a touchdown distance of 322 meters. The touchdown rate was excellent at -79 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 14 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 320 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 1 knot and a tailwind of 1 knot. The total landing distance was 444 meters, which accounted for 46% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, and the aircraft was able to taxi to the parking area in just 1 minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

In total, the flight covered a distance of 42 nautical miles and took 25 minutes to complete, using 41 kilograms of fuel.
