Arrival Final 2

Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

Flight narrative

The GA-8 Airvan Commuter aircraft, registration N13AV, began its takeoff run from runway 28 at Goodwood Aerodrome, also known as EGHR. The aircraft rolled down the runway, covering a distance of 74 meters, which represented just 11% of the runway's total length. As the plane gained speed, it eventually lifted off, reaching a liftoff speed of 72 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time were relatively calm, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind blowing in the direction of 269 degrees at a speed of 2 knots. This resulted in a slight headwind for the aircraft during takeoff. The GA-8 Airvan Commuter performed a right-hand pattern entry from runway 28, completing the turn in approximately 65 seconds while covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

As the aircraft transitioned to the downwind leg of its circuit, it encountered a right-hand crosswind component of 0 knots and a slight headwind of 2 knots. The pilot skillfully navigated the aircraft, completing this segment of the approach in just 6 seconds over a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

The pattern continued with a 45-degree downwind turn from the north-west, with the aircraft covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The angle of bank for this turn was 28.9 degrees. Once levelled off, the pilot flew the downwind leg, completing this segment in 5 seconds over a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

As the aircraft transitioned to the base leg, it again encountered a turn, this time with an angle to the runway of 151.7 degrees and a distance of 2 nautical miles.

Finally, the GA-8 Airvan Commuter began its final approach to runway 14 at EGHR Goodwood Aerodrome, flying in from the north-west at a heading of 140 degrees. At 1 nautical mile from the runway threshold and 730 feet above ground level, the pilot successfully lined up for landing.

The landing itself went smoothly, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 50 knots. The touchdown distance was good, covering a distance of 296 meters, and the touchdown rate was smooth, with a rate of -102 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 5.6 meters.

The total flight distance was 3 nautical miles, which the aircraft completed in 3 minutes. The pilot also managed to keep fuel consumption low, using 2 kilograms of fuel throughout the flight. Overall, the flight was a successful completion of a short circuit exercise, demonstrating the pilot's skill and proficiency in operating the GA-8 Airvan Commuter aircraft.

Landing on runway 14 at EGHR Goodwood Aerodrome in the GA-8 Airvan
Landing Score 93.35 %
Landing Summary

The landing of aircraft GA-8 Airvan Commuter N13AV at Goodwood Aerodrome's runway 14 was considered a successful operation, scoring 93.3% in the assessment. The aircraft was approaching the runway from a north-westerly direction, aligning itself with the runway threshold before touchdown.

Upon analysis, it was observed that the aircraft's final approach to the runway was conducted at an altitude of 730 feet above ground level, with a distance of 1 nautical mile from the threshold. This position allowed for a precise alignment with the runway centerline before touchdown. The aircraft's heading during the final approach was 140.0 degrees, ensuring a correct alignment with the runway threshold.

The aircraft's touchdown speed was reported to be within the acceptable threshold of 70 kt, demonstrating a well-controlled descent and landing speed. The touchdown distance of 296 meters was also deemed satisfactory, indicating that the pilot had effectively controlled the aircraft's rate of descent during the final stages of the landing.

Additionally, the aircraft's touchdown speed at 50 kt was considered good, showing that the pilot had managed to bring the aircraft down to a safe speed during the landing. The touchdown rate of -102 feet per minute (fpm) was also reported to be smooth, which further indicates that the pilot had controlled the aircraft's descent effectively.

However, there was a minor discrepancy in the runway touchdown position, with the aircraft being 5.6 meters off-centerline. This deviation may have been due to various factors such as wind, pilot error, or slight variations in aircraft control. Despite this minor issue, the overall landing was considered successful.

Taking into account the local weather conditions, the aircraft navigated the approach with ease. The temperature was 15°C, and the wind conditions were relatively calm, with a mere 2 kt tailwind and a 1 kt headwind. The crosswind component was insignificant at 2 kt, indicating minimal interference with the landing.

In summary, the landing of aircraft GA-8 Airvan Commuter N13AV at Goodwood Aerodrome's runway 14 was a successful operation, with the pilot demonstrating a high level of proficiency in controlling the aircraft's descent, speed, and touchdown.
