Next time

Departure

Apply small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline during the roll.

What happened: The aircraft tracked 9.9 m off the runway centreline during the ground roll, and flights with this pattern usually carry extra bank, around 3.2°, into the first climb.

Watch for: Heading indicator: wings level, tracking the runway centreline

See Departure RollDeparture Climb 1

A crosswind landing is a geometry problem. The air mass you're flying in is moving sideways across the runway, and you need your ground track down the centreline with your wheels aligned to it at the moment of contact. There are two techniques that will help, the crab and the sideslip.

Flight narrative

The Bonanza G36 aircraft departed from runway 25 at EDFL Gießen-Lützellinden Airfield, covering a takeoff distance of 345 meters, which is 82% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 78 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 8 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 8 knots from 187 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 7 knots and a headwind of 4 knots.

After takeoff, the aircraft entered a left-hand pattern, and the pilot successfully completed the pattern entry in less than 1 nautical mile in 30 seconds. The subsequent crosswind turn was also completed in less than 1 nautical mile in 15 seconds. The pilot then proceeded to the downwind leg, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile and making a turn at an angle of 41.9 degrees to the runway. The downwind leg itself was 2 nautical miles long and took 43 seconds to complete.

The pilot then initiated the base leg turn, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile and making a turn at an angle of 28.5 degrees to the runway. The final approach was made to runway 25 from the east, with the aircraft heading 247.0 degrees and at an altitude of -192 feet above ground level.

The landing was executed with a threshold speed of 80 knots, and the touchdown point was very long, using more than 50% of the available runway. The touchdown speed was 72 knots, which was considered good, and the touchdown rate was excellent at -67 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, but the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 9.7 meters from the centerline.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were similar to those at takeoff, with a temperature of 8 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 7 knots from 187 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 3 knots. The total landing distance was 474 meters, which is 112% of the runway length. The total flight distance was 9 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 5 minutes. The aircraft used 4 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing Summary

The Bonanza G36 aircraft successfully landed at EDFL Gießen-Lützellinden Airfield, achieving a score of 83.9%. The final approach was conducted from the east, heading 247.0° at 0 nm and -192 ft above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 25, which has a length of 423 m.

The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 80 kt. However, the touchdown point was quite far down the runway, utilizing more than 50% of the available length. The touchdown speed of 72 kt was within acceptable limits, and the touchdown rate of -67 fpm was excellent, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 8 °C, with a wind speed of 7 kt from 187°. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 kt and a headwind of 3 kt. Despite these conditions, the aircraft maintained perfect runway touchdown alignment.

However, the total landing distance of 474 m was 112% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft could have utilized a shorter landing distance. Additionally, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 9.7 m from the centreline, which could be improved upon in future landings.

Overall, the Bonanza G36 aircraft demonstrated good handling and control during the landing, but there is room for improvement in terms of touchdown point and rollout alignment.
