Next time

Departure

Start bringing the nose up as the speed reaches 70 kt, not after it.

What happened: You started the rotation at 80 kt, 10 kt past the 70 kt rotation speed.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 70 kt at rotation

See Departure Roll

Arrival

Use small rudder inputs against a point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline during rollout.

What happened: During the rollout the aircraft drifted 6.8 m off the centreline.

Watch for: Runway centreline marks: hold the aircraft tracking straight down the centreline through rollout

See Arrival Rollout

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 Piper PA-28 Arrow III taxied to runway 23 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde and commenced the departure roll. The aircraft lifted off after a takeoff distance of 789 m, representing 32 % of the runway, at a liftoff speed of 85 kt. Local weather at the time of departure was temperature 16 °C with wind 1 kt from 270°, giving a cross-wind component of 1 kt and a head-wind component of 1 kt.

A left-hand pattern entry was flown from runway 23, covering a distance of less than 1 nm in 107 seconds.

The aircraft then proceeded onto the left-hand pattern cross-wind leg from runway 23, traversing a distance of less than 1 nm in 18 seconds.

During the pattern downwind turn the aircraft flew 2 nm while maintaining an angle to the runway of 45 degrees and a measured deviation of 3.4 °.

The final approach to runway 05 was established from the south-west, with a heading of 46.0 ° at 2 nm distance and an altitude of 606 ft AGL.

Landing was executed on runway 05, whose length is 2 488 m. The threshold speed was recorded at 81 kt, above the target. Touchdown occurred 114 m beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 60 kt, with a touchdown rate of minus 57 fpm. The touchdown point was offset 4.2 m from the centreline. Local weather at landing was temperature 17 °C, wind 11 kt from 209°, providing a cross-wind component of 4 kt and a tail-wind component of 10 kt. Total landing distance measured 974 m, representing 39 % of the runway.

Runway rollout alignment was reported as very good.

In total the flight covered 5 nm, taking 5, and used 0 kg of fuel.

Landing Score 96.86 %
Landing Summary

The Piper PA-28 Arrow III, scored 97.7%, made the final approach to runway 05 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde from the south-west on a heading of 46.0° at 2 nm and 606 ft agl. Local conditions were 17 °C with wind 11 kt from 209°, a 4 kt crosswind component and a 10 kt tailwind component, and the threshold height was reported as good.

During the threshold and flare segment the aircraft entered the runway environment with a threshold speed well above target at 81 kt, and the touchdown point was 114 m beyond the touchdown zone.

Touchdown occurred at a speed of 60 kt, described as good, with an excellent touchdown rate of minus 57 fpm. The wheel track was slightly misaligned by 4.2 m from the centreline and the total landing distance measured 974 m, representing 39 % of the 2,488 m runway.

The rollout phase showed runway rollout alignment very good, and the aircraft decelerated safely within the remaining runway length.

With a score of 97.7% the overall performance was strong; reducing the threshold speed to meet the target and aiming to touch down within the designated zone will tighten the remaining margins. Adjusting speed management on final will also help place the touchdown point closer to the optimal aim point.
