Know your rotation speed

Departure Roll

A typical trainer rotates in the mid-50s of knots - a 172 at around 55 KIAS, climbing out at a Vy in the low 70s, though check your own POH rather than memorising Cessna's numbers - and the transferable rule is that Vr sits just above the stall speed in takeoff configuration. Rotate early because "it felt ready" and the aircraft lifts off inside ground effect, where induced drag is reduced, then climbs out of it into more drag. On a marginal-performance day the result is an aircraft that lifts off and then refuses to climb, sagging back towards the runway.

Landing on runway 18 at KDAY James M Cox Dayton International Airport in the McDonnell Douglas MD-82
Landing Score 97.86 %
Landing Summary

The MD-82 aircraft successfully landed at KDAY James M Cox Dayton International Airport, achieving a score of 97.9%. The final approach to runway 18 was conducted from the north, with a heading of 179.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,244 feet above ground level (agl).

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the threshold speed was above the target speed, coming in at 144 knots. This may have been due to the aircraft's approach configuration or the pilot's decision to prioritize a safe landing over a precise speed target.

The touchdown distance of 364 meters was within acceptable limits, demonstrating the pilot's ability to control the aircraft's descent and maintain a stable approach. However, the touchdown speed of 140 knots was slightly faster than desired, which may have resulted in a firmer touchdown rate. The touchdown rate of -354 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, indicating a relatively abrupt deceleration upon touchdown.

The runway touchdown alignment was very good, suggesting that the pilot maintained a stable and controlled approach. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 28°C and a wind speed of 8 knots from 299°. The crosswind component was 7 knots, while the tailwind component was 4 knots.

The total landing distance of 1,241 meters was 48% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control of the aircraft during the landing roll. Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft coming to a stop in a controlled and stable manner.
