Departure Roll

The rudder input is a changing profile through the roll rather than one that is held. So the demand on your right foot starts large at power application, eases as speed builds and the rudder gains authority, then jumps again at rotation.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 01 at KAPN Alpena County Regional Airport, a small regional airport in Michigan, United States. The Beechcraft A36 Bonanza aircraft took off with a takeoff distance of 386 feet, which was 4% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 82 knots, a moderate speed for a small aircraft like the Bonanza.

As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 74 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind of 12 knots at 100 degrees. The crosswind component was 12 knots, while the tailwind component was a relatively minor 2 knots. The pilot initiated the enroute climb 1 mile north of the airport, rising from an altitude of 1,428 feet above sea level to 1,669 feet in just 1 minute, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles.

After the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, lasting 10 minutes and covering a distance of 20 nautical miles. This phase of the flight was initiated 2 miles northwest of the airport. The pilot then began the final approach to runway 09 at KPZQ Presque Isle County Airport, flying from the west at a heading of 84.0 degrees and at an altitude of 626 feet above ground level, 2 nautical miles from the runway.

The landing on runway 09 was smooth and controlled, with a touchdown speed of 69 knots and a touchdown rate of -103 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the pilot maintained a good threshold height. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were similar to those encountered during takeoff, with a temperature of 74 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind of 12 knots at 100 degrees. The crosswind component was 3 knots, while the headwind component was 12 knots.

The flight was completed with a total distance of 25 nautical miles, taking 12 minutes to complete. The aircraft used 19 pounds of fuel during the flight, a relatively modest amount for a small aircraft like the Bonanza. Overall, the flight was a successful and controlled operation, with the pilot demonstrating good flying skills and adherence to standard procedures.
