The flight began with a departure roll from runway 25 at Newcastle Airport, EGNT, where the aircraft, a Piper PA-24-250 Comanche, accelerated down the runway and lifted off at a speed of 65 kt. The takeoff distance was 55 m, which is just 3% of the runway length. The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 16 °C and a wind speed of 2 kt from 270 °, resulting in a crosswind of 1 kt and a headwind of 2 kt.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand pattern, it did so from runway 25, with a distance of less than 1 nm covered in just 18 seconds. The left-hand pattern crosswind was also navigated with ease, with a distance of less than 1 nm covered in 25 seconds. The pattern downwind turn was completed with a distance of 1 nm, and the aircraft maintained an angle to the runway of 68.0 °. The downwind leg itself was 2 nm long and took 74 seconds to complete.

The pattern base leg turn was another 1 nm long, with the aircraft maintaining an angle to the runway of 23.3 °. The final approach to runway 25 was made from the north-east, with a heading of 245.0 ° at 1 nm and an altitude of 233 ft above ground level. However, the pilot decided to go-around at 0 ft agl, aborting the landing.

The aircraft then made a successful landing on runway 25, with a threshold height that was good and a threshold speed of 67 kt. The touchdown distance was 263 m, which is a good distance, and the touchdown speed was 51 kt, which is also within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate was perfect at -38 fpm, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 20 °C and a wind speed of 2 kt from 228 °, resulting in a crosswind of 1 kt and a headwind of 2 kt.

The total landing distance was 582 m, which is just 28% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled landing. The total flight distance was 8 nm, and the flight took 10 minutes to complete. The aircraft used 5 kg of fuel during the flight.

Landing Score 99.87 %

Landing Summary

The Piper PA-24-250 Comanche successfully landed on runway 25 at EGNT Newcastle Airport, showcasing exceptional piloting skills. The aircraft approached the runway from the north east, heading 245.0° at 1 nm and 233 ft above ground level (agl), demonstrating precise navigation and control.

Upon reaching the threshold, the pilot maintained a good threshold height, which is a critical aspect of a safe landing. The threshold speed was slightly above the target at 72 kt, but still within acceptable limits. This minor deviation from the target speed did not compromise the overall safety of the landing.

The landing itself was executed flawlessly, with a touchdown distance of 263 m, which is well within the acceptable range for a runway of 2,114 m in length. The touchdown speed of 51 kt was also good, indicating that the pilot had maintained control and managed the aircraft's descent effectively. The touchdown rate of -38 fpm was perfect, demonstrating a smooth and controlled landing.

The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, which is a testament to the pilot's skill and attention to detail. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 20 °C and a gentle wind of 2 kt at 228°, did not pose any significant challenges to the landing.

The total landing distance of 582 m, which accounts for 28% of the runway, is a respectable figure, indicating that the pilot had managed to slow the aircraft down efficiently. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, demonstrating that the pilot had maintained control and stability throughout the landing process.

Overall, this landing was a textbook example of safe and controlled aviation, with the pilot demonstrating exceptional skills and attention to detail.
