Know your rotation speed

Departure Roll

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

Departing from Groningen Airport Eelde, the Antonov An-2 began its takeoff roll on runway 05, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 84 kt. The aircraft utilized 67% of the available runway length, covering a distance of 1,658 meters before lifting off into the air. Local conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 16 °C and a negligible wind of 1 kt at 270°, resulting in a negligible crosswind and tailwind.

As the aircraft transitioned into the enroute climb phase, it began ascending from an initial altitude of 237 ft above sea level to 252 ft, a gain of 15 ft over a period of 2 minutes. This climb phase covered a distance of 2 nautical miles, positioning the aircraft for its final approach to runway 23 at Groningen Airport Eelde. The approach was initiated from the north-east, with the aircraft tracking a heading of 230.0° at an altitude of 235 ft above ground level.

The Antonov An-2 successfully landed on runway 23, touching down 116 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone. The touchdown speed of 40 kt was within acceptable limits, and the touchdown rate of -84 ft/min was excellent. Although the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.1 meters from the centerline, the runway rollout alignment was very good. The total landing distance covered 689 meters, representing 28% of the available runway length. The flight, which covered a total distance of 4 nautical miles, utilized 5 kg of fuel and lasted approximately 3 minutes.
