Next time

Arrival

Correct heading drift on base leg promptly with small bank adjustments to re-establish the extended centreline track.

What happened: The heading on base leg drifted 13° off the runway track.

Watch for: Heading indicator against runway track, holding it steady through base leg.

See Pattern Base Leg

The rudder input is a changing profile through the roll rather than one that is held. So the demand on your right foot starts large at power application, eases as speed builds and the rudder gains authority, then jumps again at rotation.

Flight narrative

Departing from Groningen Airport Eelde, the Grumman AA-5A Traveler began its takeoff roll on runway 23, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 66 kt in 403 meters, which accounted for 16% of the runway's length. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 15 °C and a gentle wind of 1 kt from 270°, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind component.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand traffic pattern, it demonstrated a smooth and efficient turn, completing the pattern entry in less than 1 nm in 18 seconds. The subsequent crosswind turn was also executed with precision, taking 22 seconds to complete the maneuver. The pilot then proceeded to the downwind leg, where the aircraft maintained a steady heading of 232.0° at 204 ft above ground level (agl) while covering a distance of 2 nm in 61 seconds. The base leg turn and final approach were executed with equal finesse, culminating in a smooth touchdown on runway 23. The touchdown speed of 34 kt was within acceptable limits, and the touchdown rate of -86 fpm was excellent.

The landing distance of 308 meters was good, accounting for 16% of the runway's length. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the rollout alignment was perfect. The total landing distance of 398 meters was a testament to the pilot's skill and the aircraft's performance. The flight, which covered a total distance of 6 nm, was completed in 5 minutes, with no fuel consumption recorded. The favorable weather conditions and the pilot's expertise contributed to a safe and efficient flight.
