Next time

Departure

Smooth your control inputs during the roll and rotation, easing the controls rather than snatching them, to keep the g force steady.

What happened: Abrupt control inputs during the ground roll produced 0.9 g on the g meter, and this kind of rough handling usually carries into the initial climb, showing up as 0.4 g in Climb 1 and larger excursions of 0.5 g in Climb 2.

Watch for: G meter: a smooth, steady reading through the roll and into the climb.

See Departure RollDeparture Climb 1Departure Climb 2

Arrival

In the flare, apply one smooth, continuous backpressure increase on the elevator and hold it, rather than reversing the stick to chase the runway.

What happened: The flare was pumped, with pitch reversing direction several times instead of being held as one smooth input, and a pumped flare like this usually carries the touchdown long, landing 712 m beyond the 457 m aim point.

Watch for: Touchdown point: aim for 457 m from the threshold.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

Ground effect becomes significant below about one wingspan of height. A Cessna 172, with a 36 ft span, enters ground effect at flare height - the float it feels in the hold-off is ground effect arriving on cue. An A320, with a span around 117 ft, has been in ground effect since before the threshold and there is no sudden cushion to feel, only a gradual reduction in induced drag that lengthens any float you allow.

Flight narrative

The aircraft taxied to runway 23 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde and commenced the departure roll, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 74 kt. The take-off run consumed 316 m, representing 13 % of the available runway, under calm wind conditions of 1 kt from 169° with no cross-wind component and an ambient temperature of 8 °C.

During the approach, the flight entered a left-hand pattern for runway 23, covering less than 1 nm in 21 seconds. The subsequent left-hand crosswind leg also spanned less than 1 nm, taking 66 seconds to complete. The downwind turn was executed over a distance of 1 nm, with the aircraft turning to a 45-degree angle to the runway and a heading of 179.1° before final alignment.

Landing was performed on runway 23, whose total length is 2 493 m. The aircraft touched down 364 m beyond the designated touchdown zone at a speed of 51 kt, with a vertical speed of minus 51 fpm, and the threshold speed of 57 kt was noted as good. The touchdown alignment was perfect, and the total landing roll measured 914 m, equivalent to 37 % of the runway, with rollout alignment also perfect.

In the rollout phase the aircraft decelerated along the runway, maintaining the precise alignment achieved at touchdown, and came to a stop without deviation.

Overall, the flight covered a distance of 5 nm, taking 3, and consumed 12 kg of fuel.

Landing Summary

The approach was conducted with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 57 kt, matching the conditions reported for the landing on runway 23 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde.

During the threshold and flare phase the aircraft crossed the threshold at the indicated 57 kt and executed a flare that resulted in touchdown occurring 364 m beyond the designated touchdown zone.

Touchdown was achieved at a speed of 51 kt, described as good, with a touchdown rate of minus 51 fpm, rated excellent, and runway touchdown alignment was perfect; the touchdown point remained 364 m beyond the touchdown zone.

Rollout covered a total landing distance of 914 m, representing 37 % of the 2,493 m runway, and runway rollout alignment was perfect.

To refine the performance, aim to place the touchdown point nearer the aim point of approximately 300 m (1,000 ft) in to reduce the landing distance while preserving the excellent speed and rate already demonstrated.
