Departure Climb 2

A good takeoff has a defined shape. It also has a defined end. For an airliner that's thrust reduction and acceleration, commonly somewhere around 1,000 to 1,500 ft above the airfield depending on the operator, while for a light aircraft it's established at Vy with the flaps on schedule. Most simmers have no defined end to their takeoff, which is exactly why it never gets judged.

Flight narrative

The flight began with the departure roll from runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport. The aircraft, a Sting S4, required a takeoff distance of 120 meters, which accounted for 7% of the runway. The liftoff speed was achieved at 63 knots. At the time of departure, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 269 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 2 knots.

Following the departure, the aircraft entered a level cruise, which lasted for just 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. This brief period of cruising took place overhead EGPE Inverness Airport, which is located in Inverness, the capital of the Highland region in Scotland.

As the aircraft began its final approach to runway 23, it was heading in a northeasterly direction at an altitude of 79 feet above ground level. The aircraft was at a distance of 0 nautical miles from the runway threshold and was preparing to land.

The landing itself was successful, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 30 knots. The touchdown distance was 340 meters, which was considered good. The touchdown rate was also excellent, at -58 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline, by 4.5 meters.

The total landing distance was 389 meters, which accounted for 21% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft during the landing process.

After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took less than 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 2 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 3 minutes. Notably, the aircraft used no fuel during the flight.

Landing Summary

The aircraft in question, a Sting S4, successfully landed at EGPE Inverness Airport, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its landing technique. The final approach was initiated from the north east, aligning with the runway 23 at a heading of 229.0°. At this point, the aircraft was at 0 nm and 79 ft above ground level (agl), indicating a precise and controlled descent.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 54 kt, which was slightly above the target threshold speed. However, this minor deviation did not affect the overall performance of the landing. The touchdown distance of 340 m was considered good, and the touchdown speed of 30 kt was also within acceptable limits. The most impressive aspect of this landing was the touchdown rate, which was an excellent -58 fpm, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.

Despite a slight misalignment of 4.5 m from the centreline, the runway touchdown position was still considered acceptable. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15 °C and a gentle wind of 2 kt at 269°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 kt, while the headwind component was 2 kt, which helped to stabilize the aircraft during the landing.

The total landing distance of 389 m was only 21% of the runway length, indicating a high degree of precision and control during the landing. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control of the aircraft during the critical phase of the landing. Overall, this landing was a testament to the pilot's skill and experience, and the aircraft's performance was exemplary.
