The flight began with a departure roll from runway 10 at UGSA Natakhtari Airfield, where the DA-50 aircraft took off after covering 63% of the runway's length. The takeoff distance was 363 meters, and the aircraft lifted off at a speed of 73 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 24 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 5 knots from a direction of 150 degrees, resulting in a 4-knot headwind and a 4-knot crosswind.

As the aircraft climbed away from the airfield, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead UGSA Natakhtari Airfield. The aircraft climbed from an altitude of 2,064 feet above sea level to 2,113 feet above sea level, an increase of 49 feet in just 3 minutes, while covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. This climb phase was a smooth and efficient one, allowing the aircraft to reach its desired altitude quickly.

After completing the enroute climb, the aircraft began its final approach to runway 10 at UGMT Nataxtari Airfield, which it approached from the west at a heading of 111.0 degrees. At this point, the aircraft was 1 nautical mile from the runway and at an altitude of 408 feet above ground level. The local weather conditions at the time of the approach were characterized by a temperature of 23 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 5 knots from a direction of 165 degrees, resulting in a 4-knot crosswind and a 3-knot headwind.

The landing itself was a successful one, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 64 knots and a distance of 64 meters. The touchdown rate was firm at -374 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 4.6 meters. The total landing distance was 239 meters, which was 39% of the runway's length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft throughout the landing phase.

In terms of fuel consumption, the flight used a total of -5 kilograms of fuel, which is a relatively small amount considering the flight distance of 4 nautical miles. The total flight time was 5 minutes, which is a testament to the efficiency of the DA-50 aircraft and the skill of the pilot. Overall, this flight was a successful one, with a smooth takeoff, efficient climb, and a good landing.

Landing on runway 10 at UGMT Nataxtari Airfield in the DA-50

Landing Score 96.24 %

Landing Summary

The DA-50 aircraft successfully landed at UGMT Nataxtari Airfield, achieving a score of 96.2%. The final approach was conducted from the west, heading 111.0° at 1 nautical mile and 408 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft landed on runway 10, which has a length of 618 meters.

The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 68 knots. Despite this, the touchdown distance was good at 64 meters, and the touchdown speed of 64 knots was also within acceptable limits.

The touchdown rate was firm at -374 feet per minute (fpm), which is a desirable rate for a safe landing. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.6 meters from the centerline, which may require some adjustments in the approach or landing technique.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 23°C and a wind speed of 5 knots at 165°. The crosswind component was 4 knots, while the headwind component was 3 knots. These conditions did not appear to have a significant impact on the landing.

The total landing distance was 239 meters, which is 39% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft was well-controlled throughout the approach and landing. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, suggesting that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.

Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft scored well on most of the key parameters. However, the slightly below-target threshold speed and the misaligned touchdown position are areas for improvement.
