The flight began with a departure roll from runway 32 at LZLI Ďačov Airstrip, where the Van's RV-8 aircraft took off with a takeoff distance of 112 meters, which is 25% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 69 knots. At the time of takeoff, the local weather conditions were a temperature of 2 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 5 knots at 306 degrees, resulting in a 2-knot crosswind and a 5-knot headwind.

After taking off, the aircraft entered a right-hand pattern from runway 32, completing the entry in less than 1 nautical mile in 12 seconds. The right-hand pattern crosswind leg was also completed in less than 1 nautical mile in 7 seconds. The pilot then initiated a pattern downwind turn, which was completed in 0 nautical miles with an angle to the runway of 80 degrees. The downwind leg itself was 1 nautical mile long and took 50 seconds to complete.

The pilot then turned onto the base leg, which was 1 nautical mile long and had an angle to the runway of 30.9 degrees. The base leg was completed in less than 1 nautical mile in 18 seconds. The final turn was also completed in less than 1 nautical mile in 22 seconds. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 32 from the southeast, heading 324 degrees at 1 nautical mile and 461 feet above ground level.

The landing on runway 32 was completed with a threshold speed that was well above the target speed of 76 knots. The touchdown point was very long, using more than 50% of the available runway, and the touchdown speed was 75 knots, which was fast. However, the touchdown rate was good at -190 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 2 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 6 knots at 304 degrees, resulting in a 2-knot crosswind and a 6-knot headwind.

The total landing distance was 394 meters, which is 87% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect. The total flight distance was 3 nautical miles, and the flight took 5 minutes to complete, using 1 kilogram of fuel.

Landing on runway 32 at LZLI Ďačov Airstrip in the Van's RV-8

Landing Score 86.96 %

Landing Summary

The Van's RV-8 aircraft successfully landed at LZLI Ďačov Airstrip, achieving a score of 87.0%. The final approach was conducted from the south east, heading 324.0° at 1 nm and 461 ft above ground level (agl). The aircraft was on a steady course, utilizing the available runway length of 454 m for the landing.

Upon touchdown, the threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed was above the target speed, coming in at 76 kn. This may have contributed to a slightly longer than ideal touchdown point, as the aircraft used more than 50% of the available runway. The touchdown speed of 75 kn was also reported as fast, which may have resulted in a slightly longer rollout.

Despite these minor issues, the touchdown rate was good at -190 fpm, indicating a controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, showing that the pilot had maintained control and alignment throughout the landing. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 2 °C and wind at 6 kn from 304°, were relatively calm, with a crosswind of 2 kn and a headwind of 6 kn.

The total landing distance of 394 m was 87% of the available runway, indicating that the aircraft had used a significant portion of the runway to come to a stop. However, the runway rollout alignment was perfect, showing that the pilot had maintained control and alignment throughout the rollout. Overall, the landing was successful, but with some room for improvement in terms of touchdown speed and distance.
