How to read this

Two traces from brake release: the airspeed on top, and below it the pitch, which is how far the nose is above the horizon. The figure at liftoff is the pitch then.

The takeoff from the side: the height above the runway against the distance along it. The numbers along the runway are the speeds reached at each point. Lifting off in the amber last quarter of the runway costs marks for the roll length.

How to read this

The lap from above, with the landing direction to the left: the opposite of the runway drawings. The wide pale-blue line is a textbook circuit for your downwind speed - the downwind a mile out for every 100 kt, every turn at 30° of bank - and your track is drawn over it, each leg in the colour of its mark. The numbers are the four turns, the same as on the profile and the cards below. The 45° line from the threshold is the usual point to turn onto base.

How to read this

The same lap straightened out, so the height and the bank can be read together. Each shaded stretch is a turn, numbered as on the plan. The green box is circuit height, 1,000 ft, on the downwind. The amber line is 30° of bank, and a turn's steepest bank shows red above 32°. "Turn crosswind from" is the lowest height to start the first turn at.

Turn onto downwind: scored 43.

The 45-degrees-behind-the-wing cue assumes you can turn your head and use peripheral vision. Downwind spacing cues like "put the wingtip halfway up the strut" assume a fixed, known eyepoint. Neither survives a monitor unmodified. If you fly on a fixed monitor, stop pretending and fly a numbers-based circuit.

Early: turned base with the threshold 67° behind, against 45°.

Base. Turn 90 degrees towards the runway when the threshold sits about 45 degrees behind your shoulder. Descend at around 80 kt with second-stage flap. The geometry of that 45-degree cue isn't arbitrary. It produces a base leg long enough to lose roughly 500 ft at about 500 fpm before the final turn. Once you know that's what the cue is for, you can derive your own turn point for any aircraft and any speed.

Flight narrative

Departing from Inverness Airport (EGPE), the Sting S4 aircraft began its takeoff roll on runway 23, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 83 kt in 799 meters, which accounted for 44% of the available runway length. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 16 °C and a negligible wind of 1 kt at 270°, resulting in a negligible headwind and crosswind component.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand traffic pattern, it demonstrated efficient maneuverability, completing the pattern entry in less than 1 nm in 18 seconds. The subsequent crosswind leg was also executed smoothly, taking 20 seconds to complete. The pilot then initiated a downwind turn, maintaining a 45-degree angle to the runway and covering a distance of 1 nm. The downwind leg itself spanned 2 nm, with the aircraft taking 50 seconds to complete the required distance. Following the base leg turn, the aircraft began its final approach to runway 23, aligning with the runway at a heading of 229.0° and an altitude of 152 ft above ground level.

The Sting S4 landed safely on runway 23, with a threshold height that met the required standards. However, the threshold speed was slightly higher than expected, reaching 68 kt. The total flight distance of 6 nm was completed in 5 minutes, with no fuel consumption reported. The aircraft's performance during the flight was satisfactory, with the pilot demonstrating proficiency in navigating the traffic pattern and executing a smooth landing.
