Next time

Departure

Correct the drift with small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway, holding the centreline through the roll.

What happened: The takeoff roll drifted 39 ft off the centreline, and the aircraft held a bank angle of 3.6° through the first climb segment; drifting off centreline on the roll usually carries into a wandering heading through the second climb.

Watch for: Heading indicator: runway heading held steady through the climb.

See Departure RollDeparture Climb 1Departure Climb 2

Arrival

Ease the descent rate on final, flying a shallower path back onto the target glidepath angle rather than diving steep.

What happened: On final, the approach was flown at a steeper angle than the target glidepath for that segment.

Watch for: Watch the VSI and glidepath/VASI indication on final, keeping the descent angle matched to the target rather than steepening.

See Arrival Final 1

Ground effect becomes significant below about one wingspan of height. A Cessna 172, with a 36 ft span, enters ground effect at flare height - the float it feels in the hold-off is ground effect arriving on cue. An A320, with a span around 117 ft, has been in ground effect since before the threshold and there is no sudden cushion to feel, only a gradual reduction in induced drag that lengthens any float you allow.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 36R at Charlotte Douglas International Airport. The aircraft, a Cessna C172, accelerated down the runway and lifted off the ground at a speed of 58 kt, covering a distance of 883 ft, which was 10% of the runway length. The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 54 °F and a wind speed of 4 kt from a direction of 246 °, resulting in a crosswind of 3 kt and a tailwind of 1 kt.

After taking off, the aircraft entered a level cruise, initially overhead the Charlotte Douglas International Airport, where it remained for 1 minute, covering a distance of 1 nm. The aircraft then began a climb, ascending from an altitude of 957 ft to 2,993 ft over a distance of 3 nm, covering a vertical distance of 2,036 ft in 5 minutes. This climb phase took place 1 mile northeast of the airport.

Following the climb, the aircraft entered another level cruise, this time starting 2 miles east of Belmont, North Carolina. This cruise phase lasted for 68 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 78 nm. The aircraft then began its descent, starting 1 mile north of Horse Shoe, North Carolina, and descending from an altitude of 3,951 ft to 2,310 ft over a distance of 3 nm, covering a vertical distance of 1,640 ft in 4 minutes.

The final approach to runway 35 at Asheville Regional Airport was made from the south, with the aircraft heading 340.0 ° at an altitude of 1 nm and 149 ft above ground level. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 44 °F and a wind speed of 3 kt from a direction of 319 °, resulting in a crosswind of 1 kt and a headwind of 2 kt.

The aircraft landed on runway 35, which had a length of 7,022 ft. The threshold height at the time of landing was slightly above the target height, and the threshold speed was also slightly above the target speed. The touchdown distance was good, covering a distance of 736 ft, and the touchdown speed was also good, at 57 kt. The touchdown rate was good, at -160 fpm. However, the runway touchdown position was excessively misaligned from the centerline, by 383 ft.

After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area from the runway, covering a distance of less than 1 nm in 21 minutes. The total flight distance was 87 nm, and the flight duration was 83 minutes. The aircraft used 64 lbs of fuel during the flight.

Landing Summary

The Cessna C172 aircraft successfully landed at KAVL Asheville Regional Airport, but with some notable deviations from the ideal approach and landing. The final approach was initiated from the south, heading 340.0° at 1 nautical mile and 149 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach to the runway 35 threshold was slightly above the target height at 59 feet agl, indicating a minor deviation in altitude control.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was slightly above the target at 64 knots, which may have been a result of the pilot's attempt to maintain control and stability during the landing. The touchdown distance of 736 feet was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown speed of 57 knots was also good. The touchdown rate of -160 feet per minute (fpm) was within the safe limits, indicating a controlled descent.

However, the runway touchdown position was excessively misaligned by 383 feet from the centreline, which may have been due to a combination of factors such as wind, pilot error, or a deviation in the aircraft's heading. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 44°F and a wind speed of 3 knots at 319°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, and the headwind component was 2 knots, which may have contributed to the aircraft's deviation from the centreline.

Overall, the landing was successful, but the pilot could have benefited from more precise control and alignment during the final approach and touchdown. The deviations from the ideal approach and landing parameters highlight the importance of attention to detail and precise control during critical phases of flight.
