Departing from Cotswold Airport, the Beechcraft A36 Bonanza rolled down runway 26, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 78 kt in a distance of 483 m, which accounted for 30% of the available runway length. The aircraft lifted off into a calm local weather environment, with a temperature of 15 °C and a gentle headwind of 1 kt from the northwest. The pilot then initiated a left-hand pattern entry, navigating the aircraft through a series of tight turns to establish a stable approach configuration.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand pattern, it demonstrated impressive agility, completing the turn in less than 1 nm in just 31 seconds. The subsequent crosswind turn was equally impressive, with the aircraft completing the maneuver in under 18 seconds. The pilot then transitioned to the downwind leg, where the aircraft maintained a stable heading and altitude. From the downwind leg, the pilot initiated a final approach to runway 08, aligning the aircraft with the runway at a distance of 1 nm and an altitude of 399 ft above ground level. The approach was characterized by a heading of 80.0°, which ensured a precise alignment with the runway.

The Beechcraft A36 Bonanza touched down on runway 08 with a touchdown speed of 61 kt, which was slightly below the target threshold speed of 70 kt. The touchdown distance of 145 m was also within acceptable limits, and the aircraft's rate of descent was a respectable -160 fpm. The pilot's skillful handling of the aircraft resulted in a very good runway touchdown alignment, despite the presence of a 1 kt tailwind. The flight, which covered a total distance of 3 nm, consumed a fuel quantity of -92 kg, indicating a highly efficient operation.

Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 08 at EGBP Cotswold Airport from the west was executed with precision, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 80.0° at 1 nm and 399 ft above ground level. The approach quality was excellent, with a good threshold height achieved. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 70 kt, indicating a slight delay in the touchdown process.

As the aircraft touched down on the runway, the touchdown distance was good at 145 m, and the touchdown speed of 61 kt was well within the acceptable range. The touchdown rate of -160 fpm was also good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, with the aircraft centered on the runway centerline. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15 °C and a light wind of 1 kt at 270°, contributed to a stable and predictable approach.

The rollout phase was smooth and controlled, with the aircraft maintaining its centerline alignment. The overall performance of the landing was excellent, with a score of 98.3% achieved. The slight delay in threshold speed was the only deviation from an otherwise flawless landing, and it did not impact the overall outcome. The pilot's skill and experience were evident in the execution of the landing, and the aircraft performed as expected.
