Departing from Courchevel Altiport (LFLJ), the XCub began its taxiing process from the parking area to the runway, completing the journey in under a minute and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. With the runway 04 cleared for departure, the aircraft initiated its takeoff roll, utilizing 54% of the 545-meter runway to achieve liftoff at a speed of 54 knots. Local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 16°C, with a gentle headwind of 2 knots and a crosswind of 7 knots.

As the XCub transitioned into the enroute climb phase, it began ascending from an altitude of 6,484 feet above sea level to 6,506 feet, a gain of 21 feet in under a minute and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, maintaining a steady altitude for 2 minutes while covering a distance of 4 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 22 at Courchevel Altiport was initiated from the north-east, with the aircraft descending from an altitude of 501 feet above ground level to touch down on the 545-meter runway.

The landing was characterized by a touchdown point that exceeded 75% of the available runway, with a touchdown speed of 72 knots and a touchdown rate of 964 feet per minute, which was deemed perfect. However, the threshold height and speed were both excessively high, at 218 feet above ground level and 94 knots, respectively. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 3.1 meters. The local weather conditions at the time of landing featured a temperature of 18°C, with a crosswind of 10 knots and a tailwind of 4 knots. The total flight distance was 5 nautical miles, completed in 3 minutes, and the aircraft utilized 1 kilogram of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 22 at LFLJ Courchevel Altiport in the XCub

Landing Score 55.4 %

Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 22 at LFLJ Courchevel Altiport from the north east was initiated at 0 nm and 501 ft above ground level, heading 224.0°. The approach quality was compromised by an excessively high threshold height of 218 ft agl, exceeding the target by a significant margin. This was further exacerbated by a threshold speed of 94 kt, which was also excessively high.

As the aircraft touched down, it became apparent that the touchdown characteristics were not ideal. The touchdown point was excessively long, utilizing more than 75% of the available runway, and the touchdown speed of 72 kt was also excessively fast. However, the touchdown rate of 964 fpm was perfect, indicating a well-controlled descent. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.1 m from the centreline, which may have contributed to the overall score of 55.4%.

The rollout phase was likely affected by the excessive touchdown speed and long touchdown point, which may have resulted in a longer than desired stopping distance. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 18 °C and wind at 10 kt from 334°, also played a role in the approach and landing. The crosswind component of 10 kt and tailwind component of 4 kt may have added to the challenges faced by the pilot during the approach and landing.
