Improve the rollout
Ground control varies with speed, full authority at walking pace, progressively reducing as groundspeed rises. The aircraft becomes twitchy at any speed, every small pedal input swings the nose, which can encourage large-amplitude leg inputs that no real aircraft would accept.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,875 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 284 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft, a Cockspur PH100, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Mengen-Hohentengen Airfield. This process took 10 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 07, with the aircraft lifting off after a takeoff distance of 666 meters, which accounted for 53% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 110 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of -1°C, with a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 269°. There was no crosswind, but a tailwind of 1 knot was present. As the aircraft climbed, it began to ascend from an altitude of 2,830 feet above sea level to 21,985 feet, an increase of 19,155 feet in just 8 minutes, covering a distance of 13 nautical miles.
The enroute climb started 1 mile west of Herbertingen, a town in the German state of Baden-Wuerttemberg. Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 2 minutes and covered a distance of 8 nautical miles. This phase began 1 mile south of Wald, another town in Baden-Wuerttemberg.
As the aircraft continued its journey, it began its descent from an altitude of 21,971 feet above sea level to 1,619 feet, a decrease of 20,351 feet in 17 minutes, covering a distance of 56 nautical miles. The descent started overhead EDSR Stahringen-Wahlwies Airfield Radolfzell am Bodensee, a small airfield in Baden-Wuerttemberg.
The final approach to runway 06 at LSZC Buochs Airport was made from the southwest, with the aircraft heading in a direction of 64.0° at an altitude of 154 feet above ground level. The landing took place on runway 06, which had a length of 1,875 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 92 knots.
The touchdown distance was good at 284 meters, and the touchdown speed of 85 knots was also within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate was excellent at -52 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -1°C, with a wind speed of 7 knots from a direction of 230°. There was a crosswind of 2 knots and a tailwind of 7 knots.
Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 82 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 32 minutes. The aircraft used 201 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The PH100 aircraft successfully landed at LSZC Buochs Airport, achieving a score of 96.3%. The final approach was conducted from the southwest, heading 64.0° at an altitude of 154 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway. The aircraft then landed on runway 06, which has a length of 1,875 meters.
The threshold height was reported as good, and the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 92 knots. The touchdown distance was also good, measuring 284 meters. The touchdown speed of 85 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -52 feet per minute (fpm) was excellent, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -1°C and a wind speed of 7 knots from 230°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, while the tailwind component was 7 knots. These conditions did not appear to have a significant impact on the landing.
The total landing distance was 1,081 meters, which is 58% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft was well-controlled throughout the approach and landing phases. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 10.3 meters from the centerline, which may be a minor concern for future landings.
Overall, the PH100 aircraft performed well during the landing at LSZC Buochs Airport, achieving a high score and demonstrating good control and precision throughout the approach and landing phases.
