Departing from Reichelsheim Airfield (EDFB), the Extra 330 aircraft began its takeoff roll on runway 18, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 65 kt in a distance of 357 meters, which accounted for 29% of the available runway length. The local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 22 °C and a wind speed of 10 kt from 255°, resulting in a crosswind component of 9 kt and a headwind component of 2 kt.

As the aircraft entered the traffic pattern, it proceeded to complete a left-hand pattern entry from runway 18, requiring less than 1 nm in 11 seconds to establish a stable approach configuration. The subsequent left-hand pattern crosswind leg was completed in 24 seconds, with the aircraft maintaining a steady heading and airspeed. The pattern downwind turn, base leg turn, and final turn were all executed with precision, with the aircraft maintaining a consistent angle to the runway of approximately 45 degrees. The final approach to runway 18 was initiated from the north, with the aircraft descending to an altitude of 264 ft agl at a heading of 177.0°.

The landing on runway 18 was characterized by a touchdown point that was significantly long, utilizing more than 50% of the available runway length. The touchdown speed of 79 kt was higher than optimal, and the touchdown rate of -412 fpm was hard. Furthermore, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 26.0 meters from the centerline. The total landing distance of 1,059 meters accounted for 86% of the available runway length, and the runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 18.5 meters from the centerline. The total flight distance was 9 nm, with a total flight time of 5 minutes and a fuel consumption of 3 kg.

Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 18 at EDFB Reichelsheim Airfield from the north was initiated at 0 nm and 264 ft above ground level, heading 177.0°. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height achieved. However, the threshold speed was excessively high at 94 kt, indicating a potential loss of control during the landing phase.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft used more than 50% of the available runway, resulting in a touchdown point that was very long. The touchdown speed of 79 kt was also fast, contributing to a hard touchdown rate of -412 fpm. Furthermore, the runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 26.0 m from the centreline, indicating a deviation from the desired landing path. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 22 °C and a wind of 9 kt at 256°, did not significantly impact the landing.

The total landing distance of 1,059 m was 86% of the available runway length, indicating a relatively long rollout. The runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 18.5 m from the centreline, further highlighting the deviation from the desired landing path. Overall, the landing performance was satisfactory, with a score of 70.5%.
