Next time

Departure

Hold the nose down until the speed reaches 56 kt, then rotate.

What happened: You started the rotation at 42 kt, 14 kt before the 56 kt rotation speed.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 56 kt at rotation

See Departure Roll

Arrival

Correct heading drift on base leg promptly with small bank adjustments to re-establish the extended centreline track.

What happened: The heading on base leg drifted 8.2° off the runway track.

Watch for: Heading indicator against runway track, holding it steady through base leg.

See Pattern Base Leg

A typical trainer rotates in the mid-50s of knots - a 172 at around 55 KIAS, climbing out at a Vy in the low 70s, though check your own POH rather than memorising Cessna's numbers - and the transferable rule is that Vr sits just above the stall speed in takeoff configuration. Rotate early because "it felt ready" and the aircraft lifts off inside ground effect, where induced drag is reduced, then climbs out of it into more drag. On a marginal-performance day the result is an aircraft that lifts off and then refuses to climb, sagging back towards the runway.

Flight narrative

The aircraft taxied to runway 23 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde and commenced the departure roll, covering a takeoff distance of 280 m which represented 11 % of the available runway. Liftoff was achieved at 63 kt. Ambient conditions were 15 °C with a wind of 1 kt from 275°, giving a 1 kt headwind and a 1 kt cross-wind component.

During the takeoff run the aircraft accelerated to the indicated liftoff speed and became airborne, departing the runway on a heading aligned with runway 23.

The flight entered a left-hand pattern from runway 23, covering less than 1 nm in 19 seconds while establishing the initial circuit entry.

Continuing the left-hand pattern, the aircraft proceeded through the crosswind leg, again covering less than 1 nm, this time in 15 seconds.

On the downwind turn the aircraft described a 1 nm arc with an angle to the runway of 80.5° measured on a 45° reference.

The downwind leg extended for 2 nm and was completed in 49 seconds, maintaining the circuit altitude and alignment.

During the base-leg turn the aircraft traced a 1 nm arc, the angle to the runway being 61.0° on a 45° reference.

The base leg itself was less than 1 nm in length and was flown for 24 seconds before turning final.

The final turn was also less than 1 nm and required 23 seconds to align the aircraft with the runway centreline.

The final approach to runway 23 was flown from the north-east on a heading of 232.0°, descending to 0 nm distance and 122 ft AGL.

Landing was executed on runway 23, whose total length is 2,493 m. The threshold speed was recorded at 66 kt, above the target. Touchdown occurred 423 m down the runway at a speed of 45 kt, with a touchdown rate of minus 72 fpm and a very good runway-touchdown alignment. Local weather at landing was 15 °C with a wind of 3 kt from 280°, providing a 2 kt headwind and a 2 kt cross-wind component.

The rollout covered a total landing distance of 742 m, representing 30 % of the runway, and the aircraft maintained a very good alignment throughout the deceleration phase.

In total the flight covered 6 nm, took 4 (units as provided), and consumed 1 kg of fuel.

Landing Summary

The aircraft Gabriel White and Green established the final approach to runway 23 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde from the north-east, tracking a heading of 232.0° at 0 nm and 122 ft AGL. Local weather was 15 °C with wind 3 kt from 280°, including a 2 kt cross-wind and a 2 kt head-wind.

The threshold height was good and the aircraft crossed the threshold at a speed of 66 kt, which was well above the target speed.

Touchdown occurred 423 m down the runway at a speed of 45 kt, both described as good, with a vertical rate of minus 72 fpm rated excellent. Runway touchdown alignment was very good.

The total landing distance measured 742 m, representing 30 % of the 2,493 m runway, and rollout alignment was very good.

Although the landing earned a perfect score, the threshold speed of 66 kt exceeded the target and should be trimmed to the planned value to reduce runway usage. Maintaining the current precision in alignment and speed control will preserve the high performance.
