Next time

Avoid steep turns at low altitude

See Departure Climb 3

Below a thousand feet the aeroplane is slow, heavy and close to the ground. A steep turn loses lift, raises the stall speed and flattens the climb just when the gradient matters most. A normal turn on course is a rate one — fifteen degrees or so, twenty-five at the outside, this penalty is to acknowledge when a turn has stopped being a turn and become a manoeuvre.

Speed and pitch

From brake release to the end of the climb, against time, then the takeoff point by point.

Lifted off at 74 kt with 4.0° of pitch.

How to read this

Two traces from brake release: the airspeed on top, and below it the pitch, which is how far the nose is above the horizon. The figure at liftoff is the pitch then. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, the part of the climb scored on holding the climb speed.

How to read this

The takeoff from the side: the height above the runway against the distance along it. The numbers along the runway are the speeds reached at each point. Lifting off in the amber last quarter of the runway costs marks for the roll length. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, scored on its average speed against the target.

Rolled from 118 m in, never more than 1.4 m off the centreline, in 5 kn of crosswind from the right. Airborne 26 % of the way down the runway, before the 75 % line.

How to read this

The roll from above, with your left at the top. The line is where the wheels went, and "widest" is the furthest you drifted off the centreline. Lifting off before the amber 75 % line gets full marks for the roll length. The arrow beside the runway is the crosswind, pointing the way the air was moving, so it pushed the aircraft that way.

The approach to KKIC 11

The final from 4 nm.

Profile height against the 3° glideslope, with its 2° band in green.

Inside the glideslope band from 4 nm to the threshold, never more than 220 ft above the slope.

How to read this

Your height above the runway against the distance still to go. The glideslope is the steady descent path to the aiming point, 305 m past the threshold: 3° here, which is about 320 ft for every nautical mile out, crossing the threshold at about 50 ft. The row under the distances is the height it puts you at. Inside the green band your path is drawn green; outside it, amber.

Plan distance off the extended centreline, your left at the top, with the 1° band. Sideways distances are drawn 10× larger than distances along the final.

Inside the 1° band all the way from 4 nm, never more than 39 m off the centreline.

How to read this

Looking down from above, flying left to right towards the runway: up the page is left of the centreline, down is right. Sideways distances are stretched so that small drifts show, so a line that looks wild here may be only a few tens of feet. The labels are how far off you were at each distance, amber when outside the band.

Speed against the approach speed. The green band runs from 5 kt slow to 78 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 48 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Inside the speed band from 4 nm to 0.6 nm, then fast to the threshold (up to +24 kt).

How to read this

Your indicated airspeed down the final, against the approach speed for this aircraft at its landing weight. The band allows 5 kt slow and more on the fast side further out, closing as you get lower, because the speed is expected to come off on the way down. The figures are knots above (+) or below (−) the approach speed.

The crosswind

3 kt across from the right, which takes about 2° of crab to hold the centreline at 84 kt. Touched down straight - the crab taken out before the wheels touched, wings level.

Wind 272° at 6 kt · 4 kt tail · 3 kt across

How to read this

The wind is the one recorded at the landing, split along the runway (headwind or tailwind) and across it. To hold the centreline in a crosswind the nose points a little into wind - the crab - and is straightened with rudder just before the wheels touch, often with the into-wind wing lowered to stop the drift. These are the nose against the direction you were actually moving, and the wings, at the moment of touchdown. Shown for reading; not marked.

The stop

From 92 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 16 s, an average deceleration of 0.21 g.

How to read this

Your ground speed from the moment the wheels touched until you were down to taxi speed, against the distance rolled. A steep line is hard braking, a shallow one a long, gentle roll. For scale, an airliner's lowest autobrake setting decelerates at about 0.15 g, a medium one about 0.3 g. Shown for reading; not marked.

Side view — the last 1,364 m of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 14 ft, 36 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 329 m in, close to the ideal 305 m.

How to read this

The last stretch of the approach and the touchdown, from the side. The height is stretched so that the last few feet show: 80 ft top to bottom, against 1,364 m across. The dashed line is the ideal, 50 ft over the threshold and down 305 m in. The flare ring is where you began raising the nose, and "descent slowed" is where the sink came off; the figures beside them are the sink rate, pitch and speed at that point.

Sink and pitch — through the flare, lined up with the side view.

The sink went from 440 fpm at 14 ft to 100 fpm at touchdown. The pitch barely changed.

How to read this

Lined up with the side view above, so a point on one sits under the same point of the other. On top, how fast you were coming down: 0 is level, and −600 is 600 ft a minute down. Below, the pitch. In a flare the nose comes up and the descent slows towards 0. The figure at the touchdown line is your touchdown rate.

How to read this

The runway from above, with your left at the top. Touching down inside the green bracket scores full marks for the distance. The shaded part is the rollout, up to where it ended. The arrow beside the runway is the crosswind, pointing the way the air was moving, so it pushed the aircraft that way.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 32 at Cape Blanco State Airport (5S6), where the aircraft, a Pesim FPV Drone Racer, took off after covering a distance of 295 meters, which accounted for 19% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 75 knots. At the time of takeoff, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 19 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 12 knots at a direction of 7 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 10 knots.

As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb overhead Cape Blanco State Airport, rising from an altitude of 715 feet above sea level to 8,196 feet above sea level, an increase of 7,481 feet in just 8 minutes, covering a distance of 17 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise then began 8 miles northeast of Nesika Beach, lasting for 55 minutes and covering 172 nautical miles.

The aircraft then initiated another enroute climb 7 miles northeast of Covelo, California, rising from 8,174 feet above sea level to 9,223 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,048 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles. Following this climb, the enroute level cruise started 7 miles east of Covelo, lasting for 226 minutes and covering 209 nautical miles.

As the aircraft began its descent, it started from 3 miles north of Gonzales, California, descending from 8,941 feet above sea level to 1,863 feet above sea level, a decrease of 7,078 feet in just 7 minutes, covering a distance of 21 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 11 at Mesa Del Rey Airport (KKIC) was made from the northwest, heading at 130.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,485 feet above ground level.

The landing on runway 11 at KKIC Mesa Del Rey Airport was successful, with the aircraft covering a touchdown distance of 329 meters. Although the threshold speed was too high at 94 knots, the touchdown speed at 84 knots was a little fast. However, the touchdown rate was excellent at -95 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 37 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 6 knots at a direction of 272 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 3 knots and a tailwind of 4 knots.

The total landing distance was 743 meters, accounting for 54% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, and the taxiing to the parking from the runway took less than 1 minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 430 nautical miles, taking 139 minutes, and the aircraft used 68 kilograms of fuel.
