Top opportunity

Improve the pattern crosswind leg

The one change that would have gained the most on this flight, and the guide passage for it.

Each lap slightly wider and higher than the last, because you're unconsciously using the previous lap as your reference instead of the runway and the numbers. Invisible lap to lap, unmistakable across ten. This is the failure that only measurement catches, because your memory of lap three is gone by lap eight.

Flight narrative

The Black Square Commander 114TC N177AQ taxied to runway 23 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde and commenced the departure roll, achieving a take-off distance of 423 m (17 % of the runway). Liftoff occurred at 80 kt under local conditions of 9 °C, wind 1 kt from 169°, with no measurable cross-wind and zero head-wind component.

The aircraft entered a left-hand pattern from runway 23, covering less than 1 nm in 22 seconds while remaining within the prescribed traffic pattern.

Continuing the left-hand pattern, the crosswind leg also spanned less than 1 nm and required 22 seconds to complete.

During the downwind leg the aircraft flew 2 nm in 72 seconds, maintaining the prescribed altitude and heading for the pattern.

The base-leg turn was executed over a distance of 1 nm, with the aircraft turning 45° to align with the runway and achieving a measured angle of 52.3°.

The subsequent base leg covered less than 1 nm and was completed in 27 seconds.

A final turn of less than 1 nm was flown in 17 seconds, positioning the aircraft for the final approach segment.

The final approach to runway 23 was flown from the north-east on a heading of 231.0°, descending to 0 nm and 408 ft AGL as the aircraft prepared for touchdown.

Landing was made on runway 23, whose length is 2,493 m. The threshold speed was 70 kt; touchdown occurred at 265 m down the runway with a speed of 54 kt and a descent rate of minus 67 fpm. Alignment at touchdown was recorded as perfect, and the local weather at landing was 20 °C with wind 3 kt from 224°, no cross-wind and a 3 kt head-wind component.

Rollout continued for a total landing distance of 554 m (22 % of the runway), with runway alignment remaining perfect throughout the deceleration phase.

In total the flight covered 6 nm, took 5 minutes, and used -9 kg of fuel.
