Top opportunity

Smooth the climb

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 a departure roll from runway 36 at EDFB Reichelsheim Airfield. The VL3 aircraft accelerated down the runway, covering a distance of 247 meters, which was 20% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 67 knots, marking the start of the takeoff phase.

As the aircraft climbed away from the airfield, it encountered local weather conditions of 4°C temperature and a wind speed of 2 knots from 321°. The crosswind component was 1 knot, while the headwind component was 2 knots. The aircraft climbed to an altitude of 785 feet above sea level (asl) before leveling off at 921 ft asl, an increase of 136 feet in less than 1 minute and covering less than 1 nautical mile.

The enroute level cruise phase started overhead Reichelsheim, lasting 6 minutes and covering 11 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another climb, this time from 1,194 ft asl to 2,696 ft asl, an increase of 1,503 feet in 4 minutes and covering 5 nautical miles. The climb started 2 miles south of Schotten, Hessen, Germany.

The aircraft then entered a descent phase, starting overhead EDUR Hoherodskopf Airfield Ulrichstein, and descended from 2,683 ft asl to 1,843 ft asl, a decrease of 840 feet in 2 minutes and covering 4 nautical miles. The descent phase was followed by another level cruise phase, which started 1 mile south of Schotten and lasted 9 minutes, covering 13 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 36 at EDFB Reichelsheim Airfield was made from the south, with the aircraft heading 0.0° at 1 nautical mile and 276 feet above ground level (agl). The landing was successful, with a touchdown distance of 234 meters, which was good. However, the touchdown speed of 49 knots was a little fast, and the touchdown rate was excellent at -99 feet per minute (fpm).

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.0 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 4°C temperature and a wind speed of 1 knot from 335°, with a crosswind component of 0 knots and a headwind component of 1 knot. The total landing distance was 576 meters, which was 47% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good.

The total flight distance was 35 nautical miles, taking 23 minutes to complete, and the aircraft used 5 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 36 at EDFB Reichelsheim Airfield in the VL3
Landing Score 97.47 %
Landing Summary

The VL3 aircraft successfully landed at EDFB Reichelsheim Airfield, achieving a score of 97.5%. The final approach was conducted from the south, heading directly towards the runway 36, at an altitude of 276 feet above ground level (agl) and 1 nautical mile (nm) from the runway. The aircraft maintained a steady heading of 0.0°, indicating a precise alignment with the runway.

Upon landing, the VL3 touched down on the runway with a speed of 55 knots, which was considered good. The touchdown distance of 234 meters was also within acceptable limits. However, the touchdown speed of 49 knots was slightly faster than desired, indicating a slight deviation from the optimal landing speed. The touchdown rate of -99 feet per minute (fpm) was excellent, demonstrating a smooth and controlled descent.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a minor deviation in the aircraft's alignment during the final approach. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 4°C and a gentle headwind of 1 knot at 335°. The crosswind was negligible, with a speed of 0 knots.

The total landing distance of 576 meters was 47% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll. The runway rollout alignment was very good, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control and stability during the landing roll. Overall, the VL3 aircraft performed well during the landing, with only minor deviations from the optimal landing parameters.
