Departing from Cotswold Airport, the DHC-2 Beaver began its takeoff roll on runway 08, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 65 kt in 1,030 meters, which represented 64% of the available runway length. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 16 °C and a gentle tailwind of 1 kt from 270 °. As the aircraft lifted off, it transitioned into a steady climb, eventually entering a right-hand traffic pattern.
The pilot navigated the right-hand pattern with precision, completing the entry turn in 41 seconds and covering a distance of less than 1 nm. The crosswind leg was executed smoothly, taking 49 seconds to cover 1 nm. The downwind turn was initiated at an angle of 29.9 ° to the runway, with the aircraft covering a distance of 3 nm before beginning the downwind leg. This phase of the flight was completed in 13 seconds, with the aircraft aligning itself for the final approach to runway 26. The pilot maintained a heading of 261.0 ° and descended to an altitude of 206 ft above ground level (agl) before initiating the final approach.
The DHC-2 Beaver touched down on runway 26 with a touchdown distance of 53 meters, a speed of 52 kt, and a rate of descent of -151 fpm. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the pilot had successfully managed the aircraft's speed to avoid stalling.
