Departing from EGBP Cotswold Airport, the Boeing C17 began its enroute climb phase, ascending from an initial altitude of 435 ft above sea level to 1,131 ft asl. This climb of 696 ft was achieved in a mere 2 minutes, with the aircraft covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The climb profile demonstrated a satisfactory rate of ascent, setting the stage for a smooth transition into the enroute level cruise phase.
As the aircraft leveled off 1 mile north of Crudwell, Wiltshire, it entered a 3-minute cruise phase, during which it covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. This phase allowed the crew to maintain a steady altitude and airspeed, optimizing fuel efficiency and minimizing the risk of turbulence. Following the cruise phase, the aircraft began its final approach to runway 26 at EGBP Cotswold Airport, descending from an altitude of 202 ft above ground level (agl) while maintaining a heading of 259.0°.
The landing was executed with precision, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 42 kt and a distance of 202 m. The touchdown rate of -95 fpm was excellent, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The total landing distance of 326 m accounted for only 20% of the available runway length, indicating a high degree of control and precision during the approach and landing phases. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15 °C and a light headwind of 1 kt, contributed to a smooth and stable approach. The crew's skillful execution of the landing resulted in a total fuel consumption of 2 kg and a total flight distance of 11 nm, achieved in a flight time of 13 minutes.
