Next time

Arrival

Line up with the landing spot earlier, so the last part of the approach needs only gentle turns.

What happened: The steepest bank on the approach was 66°, against 20° for full marks.

Watch for: Bank angle: within 20° on the approach.

See Arrival Approach

As you slow through about 20 knots near the end, add collective to offset the loss of translational lift, together with the matching pedal. Keep some forward speed until you're close to the ground.

Flight narrative

The Aérospatiale SA 315B Lama taxied to runway 12 at LOKL Lienz-Nikolsdorf Airfield and commenced its departure roll. The aircraft accelerated over a takeoff distance of 82 m, representing 12 % of the runway length, and lifted off at a speed of 18 kt. Ambient conditions were a temperature of 22 °C with a wind from 130° at 2 kt; the cross-wind component was 0 kt and the head-wind component was 2 kt.

After climb, the helicopter entered a level cruise segment that began directly overhead LOKL. The cruise phase lasted 2 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nm while maintaining the cruise altitude.

In total, the flight covered 3 nm, required approximately 3 minutes of elapsed time, and consumed 10 kg of fuel.
