Pattern Downwind

Spacing cues are relative to your eyepoint, so two simmers with different FOV settings following the same wingtip cue fly patterns half a mile different in width, and a wide FOV compresses depth so the runway on base looks further away than it is, biasing you towards a late turn. Pick a camera position and FOV, save it, and never change it, because every judgement you calibrate is calibrated to that picture.

Flight narrative

The flight in the Sierra C24R began with a departure roll on runway 30 at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,462 ft, which accounted for 16% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 75 kn. The local weather at the time of departure was 60 °F, with a wind speed of 1 kn coming from 270 °, resulting in a crosswind of 1 kn and a headwind of 1 kn.

After takeoff, the pilot made a left hand pattern entry back to runway 30 at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport, covering a distance of less than 1 nm in 129 seconds. This was followed by a left hand pattern crosswind from runway 30, covering a distance of less than 1 nm in 20 seconds. The pilot then proceeded to the pattern downwind turn, covering a distance of 3 nm with an angle to the runway of 14.5°. The downwind leg covered a distance of 2 nm in 70 seconds, followed by the pattern base leg turn, covering 2 nm with an angle to the runway of 179.1°.

The landing took place on runway 12 at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport, which has a runway length of 8,979 ft. The height at threshold was 7 ft above ground level, with a speed of 53 kn at the threshold. The touchdown occurred 151 ft from the threshold, with a touchdown speed of 50 kn and a vertical speed indicator reading of -120 ft/min. The local weather at the time of landing was 60 °F, with a wind speed of 1 kn coming from 270 °, resulting in a crosswind of 1 kn and a tailwind of 1 kn.

The total flight distance covered was 4 nm, taking a total of 278 seconds and using 7 lbs of fuel.
