The flight began with a departure roll from runway 27R at EICL Clonbullogue Aerodrome, where the aircraft, a SUPER DECATHLON, successfully took off after covering a distance of 103 meters, which accounted for 16% of the runway. The liftoff speed was recorded at 54 knots. At the time of takeoff, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 11 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 17 knots blowing from a direction of 228 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 10 knots and a headwind of 14 knots.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand pattern from runway 27R, it covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 31 seconds. The subsequent left-hand pattern crosswind leg was completed in 23 seconds, with the aircraft covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The pattern downwind turn involved a distance of 1 nautical mile, with the aircraft turning at an angle of 84.1 degrees relative to the runway. The downwind leg itself covered a distance of 2 nautical miles in 66 seconds.

The base leg of the pattern was completed in 30 seconds, with the aircraft covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The final approach to runway 27L was made from the east, with the aircraft heading in a direction of 224.0 degrees at an altitude of 391 feet above ground level and a distance of 1 nautical mile from the runway.

The landing on runway 27L was successful, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 53 knots and a distance of 217 meters. The touchdown rate was smooth, with a rate of -139 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 9.1 meters. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 12 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 17 knots blowing from a direction of 227 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 10 knots and a headwind of 14 knots.

The total landing distance was 363 meters, which accounted for 49% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned from the centreline by 8.7 meters. The total flight distance was 4 nautical miles, which was completed in 6 minutes, and the aircraft used 2 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 27L at EICL Clonbullogue Aerodrome in the SUPER DECATHLON

Landing Score 85.92 %

Landing Summary

The SUPER DECATHLON aircraft successfully landed at EICL Clonbullogue Aerodrome, achieving a score of 85.9%. The final approach to runway 27L was initiated from the east, heading 224.0° at a distance of 1 nautical mile and an altitude of 391 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on the runway, which has a length of 736 meters.

The threshold height was satisfactory, but the threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 64 knots. However, the touchdown distance of 217 meters was considered good, and the touchdown speed of 53 knots was also within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate was smooth, with a rate of -139 feet per minute (fpm).

Despite a good overall performance, there were some minor issues with the landing. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 9.1 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to factors such as wind or pilot error. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 12°C, with a wind speed of 17 knots from 227°. The crosswind component was 10 knots, while the headwind component was 14 knots.

The total landing distance was 363 meters, which accounted for 49% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 8.7 meters from the centerline. Overall, while there were some minor issues with the landing, the SUPER DECATHLON aircraft performed well, and the pilot's skills were demonstrated in achieving a good score despite the challenges posed by the wind and other factors.
