Next time

Departure

Hold the centreline with small, continuous rudder corrections aimed at a fixed point at the far end of the runway.

What happened: You drifted off the runway centreline by 1,972 ft during the ground roll, and this flight's climbout carried a bank of 19° in Climb 1 that was still present as 10° in Climb 2. A wandering roll like this usually rolls straight into a wandering climb attitude that follows.

Watch for: Watch the attitude indicator and keep the wings level, holding bank under 19° through the climb.

See Departure RollDeparture Climb 1Departure Climb 2

Arrival

Track the centreline through touchdown using small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway.

What happened: The aircraft touched down off the centreline at 57 ft, and drifting off centreline at touchdown usually carries through into the rollout, as it did here with alignment reaching 54 ft.

Watch for: Watch runway centreline position, keeping deviation inside the limit through touchdown and rollout.

See Arrival LandingArrival Rollout

A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

Flight narrative

The Kitfox STI commenced its departure roll on runway 08 at CYBW Calgary / Springbank Airport. The takeoff roll covered 1,848 ft, representing 56 % of the runway, and the aircraft lifted off at 41 kt. Local conditions were a temperature of 83 °F, wind 15 kt from 300°, a cross-wind component of 8 kt and a tail-wind component of 13 kt.

Climb began overhead CYBW, with the aircraft ascending from 4,025 ft asl to 4,060 ft asl, a gain of 35 ft achieved in 3 minutes while covering 4 nm.

The final approach to runway 35 at CYBW was executed from the south, maintaining a heading of 0.0° at an altitude of 119 ft agl. Weather at the time remained temperature 83 °F, wind 15 kt from 300°, with a cross-wind of 13 kt and a head-wind component of 8 kt.

Landing on runway 35, which is 4,996 ft long, the aircraft reached a threshold speed of 53 kt and touched down after 277 ft at a speed of 42 kt. The touchdown rate was minus 143 fpm and the touchdown point was offset 62 ft from the centreline.

The total landing distance recorded was 552 ft, equal to 11 % of the runway, and the rollout alignment remained offset by 58 ft from the centreline.

In total the flight covered 4 nm, required 5 minutes, and used 0 lbs of fuel.

Landing Summary

The Kitfox STI approached runway 35 at CYBW Calgary / Springbank Airport on a heading of 0.0° from the south, descending to 119 ft AGL at the threshold. Local conditions were a temperature of 83 °F with wind 15 kt from 300°, comprising a 13 kt crosswind and an 8 kt head-wind.

At the threshold the aircraft displayed a good threshold height and a good threshold speed of 53 kt as it crossed the runway.

Touchdown occurred 277 ft down the runway at a good speed of 42 kt, with a smooth vertical rate of minus 143 fpm. The touchdown point was significantly misaligned by 62 ft from the centreline, and the total landing distance was 552 ft, representing 11 % of the runway.

During rollout the aircraft remained off the centreline, with a misalignment of 58 ft from centreline.

Focus on maintaining precise centreline tracking during the final approach and flare to reduce the 62 ft touchdown misalignment and the 58 ft rollout misalignment. Consistent crab correction toward the aiming point will improve lateral alignment without affecting speed or rate.
