Improve the pattern base leg

Pattern Base Leg

Bank angle in the pattern is conventionally kept to 20 to 30 degrees, and the base-to-final turn is where that convention earns its keep. Stall speed rises with bank because the wing must produce more lift in a turn. Roughly 7 per cent higher at 30 degrees, about 19 per cent at 45, and around 40 per cent at 60. At 65 kt on base you don't have much margin to spend steepening a turn to salvage an overshoot.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 23 at KEWB New Bedford Regional Airport. The Cessna Skyhawk took off with a takeoff distance of 680 feet, which accounted for 14% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 68 knots, and the aircraft was able to lift off the ground smoothly.

As the aircraft entered the local airspace, it encountered a temperature of 70 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 5 knots from a direction of 261 degrees. The crosswind component was 4 knots, while the headwind component was also 4 knots. These conditions presented a moderate challenge for the pilot, but the aircraft handled well.

The pilot then entered a left-hand pattern from runway 23, navigating the aircraft through a series of turns and legs. The pattern entry was completed in less than 1 nautical mile in 58 seconds, demonstrating the pilot's skill and control. The left-hand pattern crosswind leg was also completed quickly, taking less than 1 nautical mile in 17 seconds.

As the aircraft continued through the pattern, it completed a downwind turn, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile at an angle of 43.4 degrees to the runway. The downwind leg itself was 2 nautical miles long and took 56 seconds to complete. The pilot then initiated a base leg turn, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile at an angle of 36.9 degrees to the runway.

The base leg was completed in less than 1 nautical mile in 28 seconds, and the aircraft then began its final approach to runway 23 from the northeast. The pilot maintained a heading of 218.0 degrees at an altitude of 191 feet above ground level (agl) and a distance of 0 nautical miles from the runway.

The landing was smooth and controlled, with a threshold speed of 63 knots and a touchdown speed of 48 knots. The touchdown distance was 990 feet, and the touchdown rate was a smooth -104 feet per minute (fpm). The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot had successfully aligned the aircraft with the runway centerline.

The local weather conditions remained consistent throughout the flight, with a temperature of 69 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 5 knots from a direction of 261 degrees. The crosswind component was 4 knots, while the headwind component was also 4 knots.

In conclusion, the flight was a success, with the pilot demonstrating excellent control and skill throughout the takeoff, pattern, and landing phases. The aircraft performed well, and the pilot was able to complete the flight safely and efficiently. The total flight distance was 4 nautical miles, and the flight took 3 minutes to complete. The aircraft used 2 pounds of fuel during the flight.
