Next time

Departure

Use smooth aileron to roll the wings level in the first climb segment, holding bank angle near wings-level instead of letting it build to 2.4°.

What happened: The wings held 2.4° of bank through the first climb segment and had drifted to 1.9° by the second - this early wing-level drift usually carries through into a larger bank excursion later in the climb.

Watch for: Watch the attitude indicator's bank pointer and keep it at wings level throughout the climb.

See Departure Climb 1Departure Climb 2Departure Climb 3

Arrival

Keep the back pressure coming through the flare so the sink does not return at 107 fpm.

What happened: The flare arrested the sink, but then the sink returned before touchdown.

Watch for: Watch the VSI in the flare and keep arrested sink from returning before touchdown at 114 fpm.

See Arrival Landing

Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 10 minutes and covered a distance of 4 nautical miles. The aircraft, a TBM 850, then departed from runway 33L at KBOS Logan International Airport. The takeoff distance was 672 meters, which accounted for 24% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 102 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 27 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 6 knots at 260 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 3 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting overhead Chelsea, Massachusetts. During this phase, the aircraft climbed from 1,007 feet above sea level to 7,159 feet above sea level, an increase of 6,151 feet, in just 5 minutes and covering a distance of 17 nautical miles.

Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, starting 1 mile northeast of Boxford, Massachusetts. This phase lasted for 24 minutes and covered a distance of 90 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 1 mile south of Boothbay Harbor, Maine. During this phase, the aircraft descended from 7,148 feet above sea level to 1,659 feet above sea level, a decrease of 5,489 feet, in just 5 minutes and covering a distance of 18 nautical miles.

The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting 4 miles south of Cushing, Maine. This phase lasted for just 3 minutes and covered a distance of 6 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 03 at KRKD Knox County Regional Airport was made from the south, with a heading of 14.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,163 feet above ground level.

The landing on runway 03 at KRKD Knox County Regional Airport was notable for several factors. The threshold height was slightly above the target, and the threshold speed was well above the target at 79 knots. The touchdown point was very long, using more than 50% of the available runway. The touchdown speed was a little fast at 65 knots, but the touchdown rate was excellent at -97 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.5 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 23 degrees Celsius.

The total landing distance was 747 meters, which accounted for 62% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took just 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 141 nautical miles, taking 48 minutes, and the aircraft used 132 kilograms of fuel.

Landing on runway 03 at KRKD Knox County Regional Airport in the TBM 850
Landing Score 92.87 %
Landing Summary

The TBM 850 aircraft successfully landed at KRKD Knox County Regional Airport, achieving a score of 92.9%. The final approach was conducted from the south, heading 14.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,163 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 03, which has a length of 1,212 meters.

Upon analysis, it was noted that the threshold height at 59 feet agl was slightly above the target, indicating a slight deviation from the ideal approach path. Additionally, the threshold speed was well above the target at 79 knots, suggesting that the aircraft was descending at a faster rate than intended. This may have contributed to the long touchdown point, which utilized more than 50% of the available runway.

The touchdown speed of 65 knots was slightly faster than desired, but the touchdown rate of -97 feet per minute (fpm) was excellent, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.5 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach path or a minor issue with the aircraft's navigation system.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 23°C, which may have affected the aircraft's performance. Despite this, the total landing distance of 747 meters, which accounted for 62% of the runway, was not excessively long. Furthermore, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain control and stability during the rollout phase.

Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some minor deviations from the ideal approach path and touchdown conditions. However, the aircraft's performance and the pilot's skills were able to mitigate these issues, resulting in a safe and controlled landing.
