The flight began with a departure roll from runway 16 at Cork Airport, EICK. The aircraft, a PA28 Arrow III, required a takeoff distance of 155 meters, which is 7% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 72 knots. At the time of departure, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 10 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 6 knots from a direction of 100 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 3 knots.
As the aircraft entered the left-hand pattern, it did so from runway 16, with the distance covered being less than 1 nautical mile in 37 seconds. The subsequent left-hand pattern crosswind leg was completed in 23 seconds, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The pattern downwind turn was executed at an angle of 109.1 degrees to the runway, with a distance of 1 nautical mile. The downwind leg itself was 2 nautical miles long and took 56 seconds to complete.
The pattern base leg turn was made at an angle of 37.0 degrees to the runway, with a distance of 2 nautical miles. The base leg itself was less than 1 nautical mile long and took 26 seconds to complete. The final turn was also less than 1 nautical mile in distance and took 21 seconds to complete. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 16 from the north, heading 154.0 degrees at 1 nautical mile and 427 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 16 was successful, with the threshold height being good and the threshold speed being well above the target at 80 knots. The touchdown distance was 372 meters, which was considered good. However, the touchdown speed of 67 knots was a little fast, and the touchdown rate of -70 feet per minute was excellent. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the local weather conditions remained the same as before.
The total landing distance was 1,385 meters, which is 65% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking 1 minute and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 7 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 7 minutes. The aircraft used 2 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

The PA28 Arrow III aircraft successfully landed at Cork Airport, achieving a score of 99.4%. The final approach to runway 16 was conducted from the north, with a heading of 154.0° at 1 nautical mile and 427 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated good control and precision during the approach, ultimately landing safely on the runway.
The landing was executed with a threshold height that was considered good, and the threshold speed was well above the target speed of 80 kt. This indicates that the pilot had sufficient control and was able to maintain a safe speed during the approach. The touchdown distance of 372 meters was also considered good, indicating that the pilot had a good understanding of the aircraft's speed and control during the landing.
However, the touchdown speed of 67 kt was slightly faster than desired, which may have been due to the pilot's decision to prioritize a safe landing over a perfectly controlled touchdown. The touchdown rate of -70 fpm was excellent, indicating that the pilot had good control over the aircraft's descent and was able to maintain a safe rate of descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 10°C and a wind speed of 6 kt at 100°. The crosswind component was 5 kt, while the headwind component was 3 kt. These conditions were relatively calm and did not pose a significant challenge to the pilot.
The total landing distance of 1,385 meters was 65% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This indicates that the pilot had good control over the aircraft's speed and was able to maintain a safe and controlled landing. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilot had good control over the aircraft's direction and was able to maintain a safe and controlled rollout.
Overall, the landing was a success, with the pilot demonstrating good control and precision during the approach and landing. The aircraft was safely on the ground, and the pilot was able to maintain a safe and controlled rollout.
