The flight in question was conducted in an Aeroprakt A-32 Vixxen, a pioneering aircraft known for its exceptional performance and handling capabilities. The departure from Newcastle Airport (EGNT) began with a smooth roll down runway 25, covering a distance of 115 meters, which accounted for only 5% of the runway's total length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 48 knots, marking the start of a successful takeoff.

As the aircraft entered the local airspace, it encountered favorable weather conditions, with a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind blowing at 3 knots from a direction of 227 degrees. The crosswind component was minimal, at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 3 knots, providing a stable and predictable environment for the flight.

The pilot's skill and expertise were evident as the aircraft navigated a right-hand pattern entry from runway 25, completing the maneuver in under 1 nautical mile in just 22 seconds. The subsequent right-hand pattern crosswind was executed with equal precision, covering the same distance in a mere 11 seconds. The pattern downwind turn, which involved a 45-degree angle to the runway, was completed in 1 nautical mile, while the downwind leg itself spanned 2 nautical miles over a period of 90 seconds.

As the aircraft approached the base leg, the pilot executed a smooth turn, maintaining a 45-degree angle to the runway, and then proceeded to align with the runway, covering the final distance in under 1 nautical mile in just 9 seconds. The final turn, which brought the aircraft onto the final approach, was completed in 40 seconds, setting the stage for a smooth and controlled landing.

The final approach to runway 25 was conducted from the north-east, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 246 degrees at an altitude of 166 feet above ground level. The landing itself was executed to perfection, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 25 knots and a distance of 141 meters, which accounted for only 9% of the runway's total length. The touchdown rate was smooth, at -118 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good.

The post-landing rollout was equally impressive, with the aircraft maintaining perfect alignment with the runway. The total landing distance was 194 meters, and the total flight distance was 5 nautical miles, which was completed in just 4 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 39 kilograms of fuel during the flight, demonstrating its exceptional efficiency and performance capabilities.

Landing Summary

The Aeroprakt A-32 Vixxen, a pioneering aircraft, successfully landed at EGNT Newcastle Airport on runway 25. The aircraft approached the runway from the north east, heading 246.0° at an altitude of 166 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway threshold. The pilot executed a precise final approach, taking into account the local weather conditions.

The temperature at the time of landing was 20°C, with a gentle wind blowing at 3 knots from 227°. This resulted in a minimal crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 3 knots, which did not pose a significant challenge to the pilot. The aircraft's speed during the final approach was slightly below the target threshold speed of 36 knots, but this did not affect the overall outcome of the landing.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was 25 knots, which was within the acceptable range. The touchdown distance of 141 meters was also satisfactory, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown rate of -118 feet per minute (fpm) was particularly impressive, demonstrating the pilot's skill and expertise in navigating the aircraft during the landing phase.

The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot had successfully aligned the aircraft with the runway centerline. This was further reinforced by the perfect runway rollout alignment, which showed that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft throughout the landing process.

The total landing distance of 194 meters was only 9% of the runway length, which is an excellent achievement. This suggests that the pilot had executed a precise and controlled landing, minimizing the distance required to bring the aircraft to a stop. Overall, the landing was a testament to the pilot's skill and the aircraft's capabilities, making it a successful and safe operation.
