Pattern Crosswind

Each lap slightly wider and higher than the last, because you're unconsciously using the previous lap as your reference instead of the runway and the numbers. Invisible lap to lap, unmistakable across ten. This is the failure that only measurement catches, because your memory of lap three is gone by lap eight.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 30 at EGHJ Bembridge Airport, where the DA40-XLS aircraft took off with a takeoff distance of 196 meters, which accounted for 29% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 58 knots. At the time of takeoff, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots at 269 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 2 knots.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand pattern from runway 30, it demonstrated a swift and efficient maneuver, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in just 15 seconds. The subsequent left-hand pattern crosswind leg also showed impressive agility, with the aircraft completing the turn in less than 1 nautical mile in 27 seconds. The pattern downwind leg was a bit longer, covering 2 nautical miles in 70 seconds.

The pattern base leg turn was a critical phase of the flight, where the aircraft turned towards the runway at an angle of 45 degrees and a distance of 1 nautical mile. The final approach to runway 30 was made from the south-east, with the aircraft heading at 297.0 degrees and at an altitude of 234 feet above ground level (agl) at 0 nautical miles from the runway.

The landing on runway 30 was a smooth and controlled operation, with the aircraft touching down at a distance of 30 meters and a speed of 54 knots. The touchdown rate was an impressive -75 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions remained the same, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots at 270 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 2 knots.

In conclusion, the flight was a successful and efficient operation, with the DA40-XLS aircraft demonstrating its agility and maneuverability throughout the flight. The total flight distance was 4 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 3 minutes, with a fuel consumption of 1 kilogram.
