Arrival
The flight began with a departure roll from runway 23 at Queenstown International Airport (NZQN). The Beechcraft Duke aircraft took off with a takeoff distance of 439 meters, which is 25% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 92 knots, indicating a smooth and efficient takeoff.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it encountered local weather conditions of 22 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 8 knots from a direction of 250 degrees. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 8 knots, which helped to reduce the takeoff distance.
The enroute climb started overhead the airport, with the aircraft ascending from an altitude of 2,026 feet above sea level to 1,658 feet above sea level. This increase in altitude of 367 feet was achieved in just 3 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The climb was steady and efficient, with the aircraft maintaining a consistent rate of ascent.
As the aircraft approached the final approach to runway 23, it was heading east at a bearing of 249.0 degrees, 1 nautical mile from the runway threshold and at an altitude of 478 feet above ground level. The aircraft was in a good position for landing, with a smooth and steady approach.
The landing itself was successful, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 69 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 276 meters, and the touchdown rate was smooth at -117 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 3.3 meters.
The total landing distance was 737 meters, which is 42% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft throughout the landing process.
