Top opportunity

Avoid steep turns at low altitude

Departure Climb 3

Below a thousand feet the aeroplane is slow, heavy and close to the ground. A steep turn loses lift, raises the stall speed and flattens the climb just when the gradient matters most. A normal turn on course is a rate one — fifteen degrees or so, twenty-five at the outside, this penalty is to acknowledge when a turn has stopped being a turn and become a manoeuvre.

Flight narrative

Departure from Groningen Airport Eelde, EHGG, commenced with a roll on runway 23. The Bulldog T1 aircraft accelerated down the 2,493-meter-long runway, reaching liftoff speed of 68 knots in a distance of 401 meters, which accounted for 16% of the available runway. The aircraft lifted off with a minimal climb gradient, taking advantage of the 1-knot headwind and negligible crosswind.

As the aircraft transitioned into the enroute climb phase, it began ascending from 705 feet above sea level to 718 feet, a gain of 13 feet in less than 1 minute, while covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The climb was initiated approximately 1 mile northeast of Donderen, a location in the Provincie Drenthe, The Netherlands. Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, maintaining an altitude of 718 feet above sea level for 2 minutes while covering a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, aligning with the final approach course to runway 23 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde from the northeast, at a heading of 233.0 degrees and an altitude of 92 feet above ground level.

The final approach and landing were executed with precision, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 51 knots and a touchdown distance of 293 meters. The touchdown rate was an impressive -73 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.7 meters from the centerline. The total landing distance was 1,413 meters, accounting for 57% of the available runway. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to a stop, having completed a total flight distance of 5 nautical miles and consuming 2 kilograms of fuel.

Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 23 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde from the north east was executed with precision, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 233.0° at 0 nm and 92 ft above ground level. The approach quality was excellent, with a good threshold height and a slight deviation in threshold speed, which was recorded at 69 kt, marginally above the target. The aircraft touched down smoothly at a speed of 51 kt, with a touchdown distance of 293 m, well within acceptable limits.

The touchdown characteristics were good, with an excellent touchdown rate of -73 fpm, indicating a controlled descent. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.7 m from the centreline, which may be attributed to minor deviations in the approach or during the final stages of the landing. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15 °C and a negligible wind of 1 kt at 270°, contributed to a relatively straightforward landing.

The total landing distance of 1,413 m, accounting for 57% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. The runway rollout alignment was very good, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control and stability during the critical phases of the landing. Overall, the landing was scored 98.0%, reflecting the high level of proficiency and precision displayed by the pilot.
