Departure Roll

The rudder input is a changing profile through the roll rather than one that is held. So the demand on your right foot starts large at power application, eases as speed builds and the rudder gains authority, then jumps again at rotation.

Flight narrative

Departure from Glasgow Prestwick Airport (EGPK) commenced with a roll on runway 21, utilizing 65% of the available length to achieve liftoff. The Britten Norman Trislander BN2 required a takeoff distance of 1,186 meters to clear the obstacles, lifting off at a speed of 82 knots. Under local weather conditions of 16°C and a negligible headwind, the aircraft transitioned smoothly into the enroute climb phase.

As the aircraft climbed from 182 feet above sea level to 151 feet, a net increase of 30 feet was achieved within a minute, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. This phase of the flight was characterized by a steady ascent, with the aircraft maintaining a consistent rate of climb. Upon reaching the desired altitude, the aircraft began its descent towards runway 30 at EGPK, approaching from the southeast at a heading of 303.0 degrees. The final approach was executed at an altitude of 98 feet above ground level, with the aircraft maintaining a steady state until touchdown.

The landing on runway 30 was executed within the available length of 2,737 meters, with a touchdown distance of 356 meters. Although the touchdown speed of 63 knots was slightly above the optimal value, the touchdown rate of -49 feet per minute was perfect, and the runway touchdown alignment was spot on. The total landing distance of 623 meters, accounting for 23% of the runway length, was satisfactory. Following touchdown, the aircraft rolled out in perfect alignment, utilizing a total of 3 nautical miles of distance and consuming 17 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
