The flight began with an enroute climb from 4,500 feet above sea level (asl) to 4,523 feet asl, resulting in a 23-foot increase over a distance of 5 nautical miles in just 3 minutes. This climb phase started overhead Oppenheim in the German state of Rheinland-Pfalz.
Following the climb, the aircraft initiated an enroute descent from 4,505 feet asl to 1,936 feet asl, a decrease of 2,569 feet in just 3 minutes, covering the same distance of 5 nautical miles. This descent phase started 1 mile south of Ginsheim-Gustavsburg in the German state of Hessen.
As the aircraft approached Frankfurt Airport (EDDF), it began its final approach to runway 07R from the southwest, heading at 67.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,586 feet above ground level (agl). The landing on runway 07R, which has a length of 3,984 meters, was successful, with the threshold height being slightly above the target, but the threshold speed was good at 71 knots.
The touchdown distance was also good at 313 meters, and the touchdown speed was 56 knots, which was within the acceptable range. However, the touchdown rate was hard at -491 feet per minute (fpm), indicating a relatively steep descent. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 7.7 meters.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -29 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 6 knots at 270 degrees. The crosswind was minimal at 2 knots, while the tailwind was 6 knots. The total landing distance was 354 meters, which accounted for 9% of the runway length.
During the rollout phase, the aircraft's alignment was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 8.6 meters. The total flight distance was 14 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 8 minutes, with a fuel consumption of 35 kilograms.

The DHC-6 aircraft successfully landed on runway 07R at Frankfurt Airport (EDDF) with a score of 92.3%. The final approach was initiated from the southwest, heading 67.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,586 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft successfully touched down on the runway, with a touchdown speed of 56 knots, which was within the acceptable range.
The threshold height at 58 feet agl was slightly above the target, but the threshold speed of 71 knots was good. The touchdown distance of 313 meters was also within the acceptable range. However, the touchdown rate was hard at -491 feet per minute (fpm), which may indicate a slightly aggressive approach.
The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 7.7 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to the aircraft's alignment during the approach. The local weather conditions were cold, with a temperature of -29°C, and a gentle tailwind of 6 knots at 270°. The crosswind was minimal at 2 knots, which did not significantly affect the landing.
The total landing distance of 354 meters was only 9% of the runway length, indicating a successful and controlled landing. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.6 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to the aircraft's alignment during the rollout.
Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some minor issues with the alignment and touchdown rate. The pilot's skills and experience were likely sufficient to handle the challenging weather conditions and ensure a safe landing.
