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 departure roll from runway 33 at LFKX Méribel Altiport, a small airfield in the French Alps. The Piper PA-24-250 Comanche aircraft accelerated down the 420-meter runway, reaching a liftoff speed of 60 knots. The takeoff distance was 103% of the runway length, indicating a relatively smooth and controlled departure.

As the aircraft climbed away from the airfield, it encountered local weather conditions of 2°C temperature and a gentle wind of 7 knots from 133 degrees. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the tailwind component was 7 knots. The pilot took advantage of the favorable wind conditions to establish a level cruise overhead Meribel, a nearby town in the Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes region of France. This enroute level cruise lasted for 5 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles.

After the cruise, the pilot began the final approach to runway 22 at LFLJ Courchevel Altiport, a nearby airfield. The approach was made from the north-east, with a heading of 222.0 degrees and an altitude of -176 feet above ground level. The pilot carefully managed the aircraft's speed and altitude to ensure a smooth and controlled approach.

The landing on runway 22 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 53 meters and a touchdown speed of 49 knots. However, the touchdown rate was somewhat hard at -407 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 4.2 meters. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were -0°C temperature and a wind of 10 knots from 134 degrees, with a crosswind component of 10 knots and a headwind component of 0 knots.

The pilot managed to bring the aircraft to a stop within a total landing distance of 327 meters, which was 60% of the runway length. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 7.8 meters. Despite some minor deviations from the ideal approach and landing, the pilot successfully completed the flight, covering a total distance of 4 nautical miles and using 5 kilograms of fuel. The entire flight took 6 minutes to complete.

Landing on runway 22 at LFLJ Courchevel Altiport in the Piper PA-24 Comanche
Landing Score 93.36 %
Landing Summary

The Piper PA-24-250 Comanche successfully landed at LFLJ Courchevel Altiport, achieving a score of 93.4%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north east, heading 222.0° at 0 nm and -176 ft above ground level (agl). The pilot maintained a good threshold height, which is crucial for a safe landing.

Upon reaching the threshold speed of 54 kt, the pilot was advised to be cautious not to stall, as the speed was well below the target. However, the pilot successfully managed to touch down the aircraft at a speed of 49 kt, which is considered good. The touchdown distance of 53 m was also satisfactory.

Despite the good touchdown speed and distance, the touchdown rate was hard at -407 fpm, indicating a relatively steep descent. This could be a concern for the aircraft's safety, as a hard touchdown can put additional stress on the landing gear and potentially lead to damage.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.2 m from the centreline, which may require some adjustments during the rollout phase. The total landing distance of 327 m was 60% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance.

During the rollout phase, the aircraft's alignment was slightly misaligned by 7.8 m from the centreline, which may require some corrections to maintain a straight path. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -0 °C and a wind speed of 10 kt at 134°, with a crosswind component of 10 kt and a headwind component of 0 kt.

Overall, the landing was successful, but the pilot should be aware of the hard touchdown rate and the slight misalignment during the rollout phase to improve future landings.
