Know your rotation speed

Departure Roll

A typical trainer rotates in the mid-50s of knots - a 172 at around 55 KIAS, climbing out at a Vy in the low 70s, though check your own POH rather than memorising Cessna's numbers - and the transferable rule is that Vr sits just above the stall speed in takeoff configuration. Rotate early because "it felt ready" and the aircraft lifts off inside ground effect, where induced drag is reduced, then climbs out of it into more drag. On a marginal-performance day the result is an aircraft that lifts off and then refuses to climb, sagging back towards the runway.

Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 20 at KTRK Truckee Tahoe Airport was flown from the north-east on a heading of 211.0° at 2 nm and 914 ft agl. At the 1,000 ft gate the approach was assessed as unstable: flaps were not set, the aircraft was off the glideslope and more than 20 kt above VREF. Descent continued from 1,059 ft agl to 43 ft agl in 226 seconds while the aircraft remained outside the stabilisation parameters.

Threshold height was reported as good and the threshold speed was a little below target at 40 kt. The aircraft crossed the threshold with a speed of 36 kt, a touchdown distance of 306 m and a vertical rate of minus 40 fpm, and runway touchdown alignment was perfect.

Touchdown occurred within the aim point, with the measured distance of 306 m and speed of 36 kt confirming a satisfactory landing point. The vertical rate of minus 40 fpm and the perfect alignment indicated a clean touchdown.

Rollout covered a total landing distance of 381 m, representing 28 % of the 1,382 m runway, and rollout alignment remained perfect throughout the deceleration phase. Local weather was 3 °C with a wind of 1 kt from 182°, providing a 1 kt headwind and a 1 kt crosswind.

Future flights should ensure flaps are selected and speed is reduced to within VREF by the 1,000 ft gate to achieve a stabilised approach, and maintain glideslope capture to avoid the observed altitude and speed deviations.
