Arrival Final 1

Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport. The aircraft, a Rans S6S, required a takeoff distance of 71 meters, which was just 4% of the runway's length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 47 knots, marking the start of the flight.

As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions of 15 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind of 2 knots at 269 degrees. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 2 knots. With these conditions in mind, the pilot began the enroute climb, which started overhead EGPE Inverness Airport. The climb was a gradual one, increasing the aircraft's altitude from 563 feet above sea level to 595 feet in just 1 minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 2 minutes and covered a similarly short distance of less than 1 nautical mile. This brief period of steady flight allowed the pilot to assess the aircraft's performance and adjust its configuration as needed.

As the flight progressed, the pilot began the final approach to runway 05 at EGPE Inverness Airport. The approach was made from the south-west, with the aircraft heading 48.0 degrees at an altitude of 217 feet above ground level. The pilot carefully guided the aircraft towards the runway, taking care to maintain a safe speed and avoid any potential stalls.

The landing itself was a successful one, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a distance of 138 meters. The touchdown speed was a respectable 25 knots, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The pilot's attention to detail and skillful handling of the aircraft ensured a smooth and controlled landing.

In terms of fuel consumption, the flight was remarkably efficient, with the aircraft using a mere 0 kilograms of fuel over the course of the 3-minute flight. The total distance traveled was a short 2 nautical miles, making this a truly economical and environmentally friendly flight.

Landing report
Landing on runway 05 at EGPE Inverness Airport in the RansS6S
Landing Score 97.76 %
Landing Summary

The Rans S6S aircraft successfully landed at EGPE Inverness Airport with a score of 97.8%. The final approach was made from the south-west, heading 48.0° at an altitude of 217 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway. The aircraft demonstrated good control and precision during the approach, ultimately landing safely on runway 05.

The runway at EGPE Inverness Airport is 1,814 meters long, providing a sufficient distance for the aircraft to touch down and come to a stop. The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed of 34 knots was well below the target speed, which may have required the pilot to exercise caution to avoid stalling the aircraft.

The touchdown distance of 138 meters was considered good, indicating that the pilot had sufficient control over the aircraft's descent and speed. The touchdown speed of 25 knots was also reported as good, suggesting that the pilot had successfully managed the aircraft's speed during the landing. However, the touchdown rate of -204 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, which may indicate that the pilot could have managed the descent more smoothly.

The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot had successfully aligned the aircraft with the runway and was able to touch down in the correct position. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 2 knots from 269°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, and the tailwind component was 2 knots, which may have had a slight effect on the aircraft's performance during the landing. Overall, the pilot demonstrated good skills and control during the landing, resulting in a successful touchdown and a high score.
