The flight began with the aircraft, a Black Square Starship N45FL, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at KLAS Harry Reid International Airport. This process took 6 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 01L, and the takeoff distance was 4,664 feet, which accounted for 56% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 113 knots.

As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 88 degrees Fahrenheit and winds of 4 knots at 222 degrees. The crosswind was minimal at 1 knot, while the tailwind was 4 knots. The enroute climb began overhead Paradise, Nevada, where the aircraft ascended from 3,066 feet above sea level to 33,085 feet, a total increase of 30,019 feet in 17 minutes, covering a distance of 59 nautical miles.

The enroute level cruise started 14 miles southeast of KXTA Homey Airport, also known as Groom Lake, and lasted for 136 minutes, covering a distance of 815 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 3 miles south of Gibsons, British Columbia, Canada, where it descended from 32,352 feet to 221 feet above sea level, a decrease of 32,131 feet in 9 minutes, covering a distance of 43 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 16 at KORS Orcas Island Airport was made from the north, heading 180 degrees, at an altitude of 201 feet above ground level and 1 nautical mile from the runway. However, the aircraft performed a go-around at an altitude of 23 feet above ground level. The landing was eventually made on runway 16, which had a length of 2,893 feet. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was 108 knots. The touchdown distance was 944 feet, and the touchdown speed was 98 knots, both of which were considered good. The touchdown rate was perfect at -35 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 61 degrees Fahrenheit and winds of 13 knots at 171 degrees. The crosswind was 2 knots, while the headwind was 12 knots. The total landing distance was 2,505 feet, which accounted for 87% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also very good. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, a process that took less than 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

Landing on runway 16 at KORS Orcas Island Airport in the Black Square Starship N45FL

Landing Score 94.63 %

Landing Summary

The aircraft, Black Square Starship N45FL, successfully landed at KORS Orcas Island Airport, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its approach and landing procedures. The final approach to runway 16 was initiated from the north, with the aircraft heading 180.0° at 1 nautical mile and 201 feet above ground level (agl). This positioning allowed the pilot to maintain a clear visual of the runway and execute a precise landing.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway at a speed of 98 kt, which was within the acceptable range. The touchdown distance of 944 ft was also satisfactory, indicating that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft throughout the descent. The touchdown rate of -35 fpm was perfect, signifying a smooth and controlled landing.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 61°F and a wind speed of 13 kt at 171°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 kt, while the headwind component was 12 kt, which helped to reduce the aircraft's ground speed and make the landing more manageable.

The total landing distance of 2,505 ft was 87% of the runway length, indicating that the pilot had maintained a good alignment with the runway during the rollout. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, demonstrating the pilot's ability to control the aircraft's speed and direction after touchdown.
