Departure from Braga Municipal Aerodrome, LPBR, commenced with a smooth departure roll on runway 07. The Grumman Goose accelerated down the 360-meter runway, covering 38% of its length, before lifting off at a speed of 69 knots. Local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 18°C and a gentle wind of 4 knots from 293 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind component.

As the aircraft climbed away from Braga, it quickly gained altitude, rising from 320 feet above sea level to 2,488 feet in just 3 minutes, covering a distance of 7 nautical miles. The enroute climb phase was followed by a brief level cruise, lasting 3 minutes and covering 5 nautical miles, before the aircraft began its descent towards its destination. The descent from 2,753 feet to 1,914 feet in 2 minutes, covering 4 nautical miles, was a smooth and controlled phase of the flight. The aircraft then leveled off again, cruising at 2,000 feet for 2 minutes, before commencing its final descent.

The final approach to landing was initiated overhead Viana do Castelo, with the aircraft descending from 256 feet above ground level to touch down at 0 feet in just 3 seconds. However, the touchdown speed of 100 knots was excessively high, resulting in a heavy touchdown rate of -610 feet per minute. The touchdown distance of 217 meters was satisfactory, but the high touchdown speed highlighted the need for further attention to the aircraft's approach and landing technique. Following touchdown, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 1 minute. The total flight distance was 30 nautical miles, with a fuel consumption of 37 kilograms, and a total flight time of 18 minutes.

Landing on runway XX at overhead Viana do Castelo (Distrito de Viana do Castelo, Portugal) in the Grumman Goose

Landing Score 53.31 %

Landing Summary

The final approach to landing at Viana do Castelo was initiated from 1 nm out, with the aircraft descending from 256 ft above ground level (agl) to 46 ft agl before commencing the flare. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a smooth and controlled descent. However, the touchdown speed of 100 kt was excessively fast, resulting in a heavy touchdown rate of -610 fpm. The touchdown distance of 217 m was good, indicating a well-executed flare.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's centreline alignment was maintained, with a rollout distance of 649 m. The aircraft's altitude during rollout was 12 ft above sea level (asl), indicating a slight bounce. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 18 °C and a wind of 4 kt at 259 °, contributed to a relatively calm environment. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 kt, while the tailwind component was 4 kt, which may have influenced the aircraft's touchdown speed.

The overall performance of the approach and landing was scored at 53.3%. While the approach quality and touchdown distance were satisfactory, the excessive touchdown speed and heavy touchdown rate detracted from the overall score. The landing rollout was also notable for its length, which may have been influenced by the aircraft's bounce upon touchdown.
