The flight in question was conducted in an Aeroprakt A-32 Vixxen aircraft, a pioneering aircraft known for its exceptional performance. The flight began with an enroute climb from Islay Airport, located on the Isle of Islay in Argyll and Bute, Scotland. The aircraft took off from a height of 44 feet above sea level and rapidly ascended to 913 feet in just one minute, covering a distance of less than one nautical mile. This impressive climb showcased the aircraft's exceptional power and agility.
As the flight progressed, the aircraft began its enroute descent, once again from Islay Airport. The descent from 910 feet to 252 feet took two minutes, covering a distance of one nautical mile. This controlled descent demonstrated the pilot's skill and expertise in navigating the aircraft through various altitudes.
The final approach to runway 31 at Islay Airport was conducted from the south-east, with the aircraft heading at 306.0 degrees at an altitude of 210 feet above ground level. The pilot expertly guided the aircraft towards the runway, taking into account the local weather conditions. The temperature was a pleasant 20 degrees Celsius, with a gentle wind of 3 knots blowing at 224 degrees.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down smoothly on the runway, with a touchdown speed of 29 knots. The touchdown distance was an impressive 54 meters, and the touchdown rate was a smooth -125 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot had expertly guided the aircraft onto the runway.
The total landing distance was 126 meters, which was a mere 10% of the runway length. This demonstrated the aircraft's exceptional braking capabilities and the pilot's skill in navigating the aircraft through the landing process. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft throughout the landing process.
In terms of fuel consumption, the flight used a total of -5 kilograms of fuel, which is a remarkably low amount considering the flight distance of two nautical miles.
