Next time

Departure

Ease the yoke smoothly to hold a steady one g through the ground roll instead of letting it sag to 0.4 g.

What happened: During the ground roll the g force averaged 0.4 g, well below the smooth steady load expected while tracking the runway.

Watch for: Watch the g meter and hold it steady near one g through the roll.

See Departure Roll

When Vr arrives, an abrupt near-full-scale pull, pitch overshoots, a push, and an oscillation through the first 200 ft. It feels like “this aircraft is twitchy” but the actual fault happened before liftoff. The pitch trace needs to show a clean ramp during liftoff.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport, where the aircraft, a Piper PA-24-250 Comanche, successfully took off after covering a distance of 231 meters, which accounted for 13% of the runway. The liftoff speed was achieved at 73 knots. At the time of takeoff, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind blowing at 2 knots from a direction of 270 degrees. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and a headwind of 2 knots.

After taking off, the aircraft entered a left-hand pattern, navigating the airspace around EGPE Inverness Airport. The entry into the pattern was swift, with the aircraft covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in just 40 seconds. As the aircraft continued in the pattern, it encountered a crosswind from the runway 23 direction, which it navigated with ease, covering the distance in under 1 nautical mile in just 23 seconds.

The final approach to runway 05 at EGPE Inverness Airport was made from the south-west, with the aircraft flying at a heading of 46.0 degrees at an altitude of 295 feet above ground level (agl) and at a distance of 0 nautical miles from the runway. The approach was smooth, and the aircraft landed safely on the runway, which had a length of 1,814 meters.

The landing was characterized by a threshold height that was good, and the threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 58 knots. The touchdown distance was also good, covering a distance of 283 meters. The touchdown speed was 41 knots, which was considered good, and the touchdown rate was smooth at -130 feet per minute (fpm). The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot had successfully navigated the aircraft to a safe landing.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were the same as those at the time of takeoff, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind blowing at 2 knots from a direction of 270 degrees. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and a tailwind of 2 knots. The total landing distance was 423 meters, which accounted for 23% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot had successfully controlled the aircraft during the landing roll.

The total flight distance was 3 nautical miles, which was covered in 2 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 1 kilogram of fuel during the flight. Overall, the flight was characterized by smooth and controlled operations, with the pilot successfully navigating the aircraft through the departure, pattern, and landing phases.
