The flight began with an enroute climb from 4,490 feet above sea level (asl) to 4,499 feet asl, resulting in a 9-foot increase over a period of 2 minutes, while covering a distance of 3 nautical miles. This climb phase started overhead Oppenheim in Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered an enroute level cruise phase, which began overhead Nackenheim in Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany. This phase lasted for 4 minutes and covered a distance of 6 nautical miles.
As the flight progressed, the aircraft initiated its final approach to runway 07R at EDDF Frankfurt Airport, coming in from the southwest at a heading of 69.0 degrees and at an altitude of 1,693 feet above ground level (agl), while being 4 nautical miles away from the runway. The aircraft landed successfully on the 3,984-meter-long runway, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed that was well above the target at 78 knots.
The touchdown distance was good at 424 meters, and the touchdown speed was also good at 64 knots. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -201 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, considering the local weather conditions, which included a temperature of -29 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 6 knots at 270 degrees. The crosswind was 2 knots, and the tailwind was 6 knots.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area from the runway, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 3 minutes. The total flight distance was 13 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 12 minutes, during which the aircraft used 31 kilograms of fuel.

The DHC-6 aircraft successfully landed on runway 07R at Frankfurt Airport (EDDF) with a score of 90.5%. The final approach was initiated from the southwest, heading 69.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,693 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft successfully touched down on the runway, which has a length of 3,984 meters.
The threshold height was reported as good, and the threshold speed was above the target speed of 78 knots. The touchdown distance of 424 meters was also considered good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown speed of 64 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -201 feet per minute (fpm) was fair, suggesting a slightly steeper descent than ideal.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were challenging, with a temperature of -29°C and a wind speed of 6 knots from 270°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, while the tailwind component was 6 knots. Despite these conditions, the aircraft maintained a stable approach and touchdown.
However, there was a slight deviation in the runway rollout alignment, with the aircraft being 10.5 meters off the centerline. This deviation was relatively minor and did not significantly impact the overall performance of the landing. The total landing distance of 667 meters was only 17% of the runway length, indicating a controlled and efficient landing.
Overall, the DHC-6 aircraft demonstrated a high level of proficiency in landing on runway 07R at Frankfurt Airport, with a score of 90.5%. The crew's ability to navigate challenging weather conditions and maintain a stable approach and touchdown was commendable.
