Top opportunity

Work on the flare

Arrival Landing

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll on runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport, a small airport located in Inverness, Scotland. The aircraft, a Cockspur C162, accelerated down the runway, covering a takeoff distance of 127 meters, which accounted for 7% of the runway's length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 49 knots, marking the beginning of the flight.

As the aircraft lifted off, it entered a level cruise, which lasted for 2 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. This brief period of steady flight took place overhead EGPE Inverness Airport, providing a moment of stability before the aircraft began its descent.

Upon reaching the end of the cruise phase, the aircraft began its descent and prepared for landing on runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport. The runway, measuring 1,814 meters in length, provided ample space for the aircraft to touch down safely. The threshold height, which was 23.7 meters above ground level, was well above the target, indicating a safe margin for the aircraft to descend.

The touchdown speed was 62 knots, which was significantly higher than the target speed, but the aircraft was able to touch down smoothly at 33 knots, with a perfect touchdown rate of -0.1 meters per second. The runway touchdown alignment was also perfect, indicating that the aircraft had maintained its course and direction during the final stages of the flight.

The local weather conditions remained consistent throughout the flight, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 270 degrees. The crosswind component was 1 knot, while the headwind component was 2 knots, providing a stable and predictable environment for the flight.

In the end, the flight covered a total distance of 2 nautical miles, taking 4 minutes to complete, and used no fuel during the flight. The Cockspur C162 performed well, demonstrating its capabilities in a variety of flight conditions.

Landing report
Landing on runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport in the Cockspur C162
Landing Score 71.36 %
Landing Summary

The Cockspur C162 aircraft successfully landed on runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport, achieving a score of 71.4%. The landing was conducted under favorable weather conditions, with a temperature of 15 °C and a gentle wind of 2 kn at 270°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 kn, while the headwind component was 2 kn, providing a relatively stable approach.

The aircraft's performance was satisfactory in terms of touchdown speed, which was recorded at 33 kn, well within the target range. The touchdown rate was also perfect, with a rate of -0.1 m/s, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was spot on, demonstrating the pilot's skill and precision in navigating the aircraft to the correct position on the runway.

However, there were some areas where the landing could be improved. The threshold height at 23.7 m agl was significantly above the target, suggesting that the pilot may have been too high on final approach. Additionally, the threshold speed was well above the target at 62 kn, indicating that the pilot may have been too aggressive in their approach. The touchdown point was also 180 m beyond the touchdown zone, which may indicate a slight over-shoot or a slightly long final approach.

Overall, while the landing was not perfect, the Cockspur C162 aircraft demonstrated good performance in terms of touchdown speed and rate, and the pilot's skills in navigating the aircraft to the correct position on the runway were evident. With some adjustments to their approach and landing technique, the pilot may be able to achieve an even higher score in future landings.
