Next time

Departure

Start bringing the nose up as the speed reaches 56 kt, not after it.

What happened: You started the rotation at 66 kt, 10 kt past the 56 kt rotation speed.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 56 kt at rotation

See Departure Roll

Arrival

Add power on short final to hold 65 kt at the threshold rather than letting speed decay.

What happened: You crossed the threshold at 50 kt against a target of 65 kt, below reference speed.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator, hold 65 kt down to the threshold.

See Arrival Landing

Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

Flight narrative

Departing from Groningen Airport Eelde, the Grumman AA-5A Traveler began its takeoff roll on runway 05, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 72 kt after a distance of 2,041 m, which accounted for 82% of the available runway. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 15 °C and a negligible wind of 1 kt at 270°, resulting in a negligible crosswind and tailwind.

As the aircraft entered the right-hand traffic pattern, it demonstrated a smooth and efficient turn, covering a distance of 1 nm in 10 seconds. The subsequent crosswind turn was equally impressive, with a distance of less than 1 nm covered in just 5 seconds. The pilot then initiated the downwind turn, maintaining a 45-degree angle to the runway and a distance of 1 nm. The downwind leg was brief, lasting less than 1 nm in 2 seconds. The base leg turn was more extensive, covering a distance of 3 nm and positioning the aircraft for a final approach to runway 23 from the north-east.

The final approach was executed flawlessly, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 260.0° and an altitude of 726 ft above ground level (agl) at a distance of 1 nm from the runway. The landing was smooth, with a touchdown distance of 128 m and a speed of 44 kt. The touchdown rate was an impressive -74 fpm, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The total landing distance was a mere 218 m, accounting for just 9% of the available runway. The runway rollout alignment was also spot on, demonstrating the pilot's exceptional skill and control. The total flight distance was a relatively short 5 nm, covering the distance in just 3 minutes and consuming a negligible 0 kg of fuel.

Landing Summary

The Grumman AA-5A Traveler touched down on runway 23 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde with a satisfactory approach quality, demonstrating good control and precision. The aircraft descended from an altitude of 726 feet above ground level (agl) at a distance of 1 nautical mile from the runway threshold, aligning itself with the runway heading of 260.0°. The threshold height was well within acceptable limits, allowing for a smooth touchdown.

As the aircraft made contact with the runway, it exhibited good touchdown characteristics, with a speed of 44 knots and a distance of 128 meters. The touchdown rate of -74 feet per minute (fpm) was particularly impressive, indicating a controlled and stable descent. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, with the aircraft centered on the runway centerline. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15°C and a negligible wind of 1 knot from 270°, contributed to a stable and predictable approach.

The rollout phase was equally impressive, with the aircraft maintaining perfect alignment with the runway centerline. The total landing distance of 218 meters, representing just 9% of the runway length, was a testament to the pilot's skill and the aircraft's performance. Overall, the landing was scored at 93.7%, reflecting a high level of proficiency and adherence to standard operating procedures.
