The flight began with a departure roll from runway 34 at Cork Airport, EICK. The aircraft, a PA28 Arrow III, accelerated down the runway, covering a distance of 240 meters, which is 11% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 75 knots, marking the start of the flight.

As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 11 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 6 knots at 40 degrees. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 3 knots. The pilot navigated the aircraft into a left-hand pattern entry from runway 34, completing the maneuver in less than 1 nautical mile in 39 seconds.

The left-hand pattern crosswind was also executed, with the aircraft covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 20 seconds. The pilot then proceeded to the pattern downwind turn, which involved a 2-nautical-mile distance and an angle to the runway of 45 degrees, resulting in a turn of 95.2 degrees. The downwind leg itself took 69 seconds to complete, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles.

The base leg turn was another 2-nautical-mile distance, with an angle to the runway of 45 degrees, resulting in a turn of 47.7 degrees. The base leg itself took 45 seconds to complete, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile. The final turn was a short distance of less than 1 nautical mile, completed in 26 seconds.

The final approach to runway 34 was made from the south, with the aircraft heading 341.0 degrees at 1 nautical mile and 535 feet above ground level. The landing was executed with a threshold speed of 68 knots, a touchdown distance of 145 meters, and a touchdown speed of 62 knots. The touchdown rate was an excellent -95 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good.

The local weather conditions during the landing were similar to those encountered during takeoff, with a temperature of 10 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 6 knots at 39 degrees. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 3 knots. The total landing distance was 551 meters, which is 26% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, and the aircraft came to a stop without any issues.

The taxiing to the parking area from the runway took 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 7 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 8 minutes. The aircraft used 2 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 34 at EICK Cork Airport in the PA28 Arrow III

Landing Score 99.64 %

Landing Summary

The PA28 Arrow III aircraft successfully landed at Cork Airport, achieving a score of 99.6%. The final approach was conducted from the south, heading 341.0° at 1 nautical mile and 535 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated excellent control and precision during the approach, ultimately landing on runway 34.

The runway at Cork Airport has a length of 2,119 meters, providing a safe margin for the aircraft's touchdown. The threshold height was good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct altitude as it approached the runway. The threshold speed of 68 knots was also satisfactory, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed during the approach.

The touchdown distance of 145 meters was within acceptable limits, and the touchdown speed of 62 knots was also good. The most impressive aspect of the landing was the touchdown rate, which was an excellent -95 feet per minute (fpm). This indicates that the aircraft touched down smoothly and with minimal impact, reducing the risk of damage to the aircraft and minimizing the impact on the runway.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 10°C and a wind speed of 6 knots from 39°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 3 knots. These conditions presented a moderate challenge for the pilot, but they were able to manage the aircraft effectively and maintain control throughout the approach and landing.

The total landing distance of 551 meters was 26% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This indicates that the pilot was able to bring the aircraft to a stop quickly and efficiently, without overrunning the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.

Overall, the PA28 Arrow III aircraft demonstrated excellent handling and control during the landing at Cork Airport. The pilot's skills and experience were evident throughout the approach and landing, and the aircraft performed well in the challenging weather conditions.
