Departing from the Cotswold Airport at Kemble in Gloucestershire, England, the Beechcraft A36 Bonanza began its enroute climb, ascending from an initial altitude of 452 ft above sea level to 655 ft asl in a mere 2 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. This initial climb phase demonstrated a satisfactory rate of ascent, setting the stage for a smooth and efficient flight.
As the aircraft approached the final approach to runway 08 at Cotswold Airport, it maintained a heading of 77.0° from the west, positioning itself 1 nautical mile from the runway threshold at an altitude of 229 ft above ground level. The landing was executed with precision, with a threshold speed of 72 kt and a touchdown speed of 59 kt, resulting in a touchdown rate of -181 ft/min. The touchdown distance of 200 m was well within the acceptable range, and the runway touchdown position was only slightly misaligned by 3.4 m from the centreline.
The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15 °C and a wind speed of 1 kt from 264°, contributed to a negligible crosswind and a slight tailwind, which did not significantly impact the landing. The total landing distance of 356 m accounted for only 22% of the runway length, indicating a high degree of control and precision during the landing phase. The runway rollout alignment was also satisfactory, with the aircraft maintaining a stable and aligned path following touchdown. The total flight distance of 3 nautical miles was completed in 3 minutes, with a fuel consumption of 1 kg.

The final approach to runway 08 at EGBP Cotswold Airport was executed from the west, with the aircraft heading 77.0° at 1 nm and 229 ft above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 72 kt, which was well within the acceptable range. The aircraft touched down at a speed of 59 kt, resulting in a touchdown rate of -181 fpm, which was also within the desired parameters.
The touchdown characteristics were good, with a touchdown distance of 200 m, which was well within the acceptable range for the runway length of 1,618 m. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.4 m from the centreline. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15 °C and a wind of 1 kt at 264°, contributed to a negligible crosswind and a slight tailwind of 1 kt. The total landing distance of 356 m, which accounted for 22% of the runway, was acceptable.
The rollout phase was executed smoothly, with the aircraft maintaining a very good alignment with the centreline. Overall, the landing was considered satisfactory, with a score of 97.6%. The slight misalignment on touchdown and the relatively short runway length were the only notable deviations from the ideal landing parameters.
