The flight began with a departure roll from runway 34 at the Newport State Airport, KUUU. The aircraft, a Seastar, required a takeoff distance of 968 feet, which was 41% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 79 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of 60°F and a wind speed of 1 knot from 269°, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind.
As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it began its enroute climb, starting overhead Middletown, Rhode Island. The climb from 529 feet above sea level to 960 feet above sea level was a significant increase of 431 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. This rapid ascent showcased the aircraft's capabilities in terms of rate of climb.
The final approach to landing was a crucial phase of the flight, with the aircraft descending from 944 feet above ground level to touch down 1 mile east of Newport, Rhode Island. The descent from 48 feet above ground level to 0 feet above ground level was a relatively short period of 7 seconds, indicating a smooth and controlled approach. However, the touchdown speed of 89 knots was slightly faster than ideal, resulting in a fair touchdown rate of -205 feet per minute.
The touchdown distance of 1,172 feet was considered good, and the landing rollout that followed was a significant 2,063 feet, with the aircraft taxiing to the parking area from the runway in under 1 minute and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 5 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 5 minutes, with the aircraft consuming 3 pounds of fuel.
Overall, the flight demonstrated the Seastar's capabilities in terms of takeoff, climb, and landing performance, as well as its efficiency in terms of fuel consumption. The flight's smooth and controlled approach and landing phases were notable, and the aircraft's ability to taxi quickly to the parking area was a testament to its maneuverability.

Landing Lights at 20:49:19 |
The Seastar aircraft successfully completed its landing at a location 1 mile east of Newport, Rhode Island, with a final approach score of 83.6%. The aircraft began its descent from an altitude of 944 feet above ground level (agl) at a distance of 1 nautical mile from the landing site. As it approached the touchdown point, the aircraft descended from 48 feet agl to 0 feet agl in a span of 7 seconds, indicating a relatively steep descent rate.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was recorded at 89 knots, which was slightly above the optimal speed for a smooth landing. However, the touchdown rate of -205 feet per minute (fpm) was considered fair, suggesting that the aircraft's descent was not excessively steep. The touchdown distance of 1,172 feet was deemed good, indicating that the aircraft landed within a reasonable distance from the desired point.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 59°F and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 261°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and headwind, making the landing process relatively straightforward. The aircraft's landing rollout, which occurred after touchdown, covered a distance of 2,063 feet at an altitude of 0 feet above sea level (asl). Overall, the Seastar aircraft demonstrated a good performance during the landing, with some minor areas for improvement.
