The flight in question was conducted using a DA42-TDI aircraft. The enroute climb phase began 1 mile south east of Strassgang, Austria, and involved a climb from 5,006 feet above sea level (asl) to the same altitude, resulting in a negligible increase of 0 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile (nm).
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 1 mile south east of Strassgang and lasted for 32 minutes. During this period, the aircraft covered a distance of 16 nm. The flight then transitioned into an enroute descent phase, initiated overhead Gabersdorf, Austria. The descent from 4,480 ft asl to 3,911 ft asl resulted in a decrease of 569 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 3 nm.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which began 1 mile south west of Tillmitsch, Austria, and lasted for 2 minutes. During this brief period, the aircraft covered a distance of 3 nm. The flight then entered a final descent phase, initiated 1 mile north east of Sankt Nikolai im Sausal, Austria. The descent from 3,548 ft asl to 2,272 ft asl resulted in a decrease of 1,275 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nm.
The final approach to runway 34C at LOWG Graz Airport was conducted from the south, with a heading of 348.0° at a distance of 4 nm and an altitude of 1,167 feet above ground level (agl). The landing on runway 34C, which has a length of 2,739 meters, was successful, with a good threshold height. However, the threshold speed was too high at 94 knots.
The touchdown point was 372 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 62 knots, which was considered good. The touchdown rate was also good at -173 feet per minute (fpm). The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.9 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 15°C, with a wind speed of 10 knots at 44°. The crosswind was 8 knots, while the headwind was 6 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,010 meters, which accounted for 37% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The total flight distance was 30 nm, which was covered in 38 minutes, and the aircraft used 19 kg of fuel during the flight.

The DA42-TDI aircraft successfully landed at LOWG Graz Airport, achieving a score of 90.6%. The final approach was conducted from the south, heading 348.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,167 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 34C, which has a length of 2,739 meters.
The threshold height was reported as good, but the threshold speed was too high at 94 knots. This indicates that the pilot may have been able to improve the landing by reducing the speed before touchdown. The touchdown point was 372 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which suggests that the pilot may have been able to improve the accuracy of the landing by making adjustments to the approach.
The touchdown speed of 62 knots was reported as good, and the touchdown rate of -173 feet per minute (fpm) was also good. This indicates that the pilot was able to control the descent and touchdown of the aircraft effectively. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.9 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach or during the landing roll.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were reported as follows: temperature 15°C, wind 10 knots at 44°, crosswind 8 knots, and headwind 6 knots. These conditions may have affected the approach and landing, but the pilot was able to manage them effectively.
The total landing distance was 1,010 meters, which is 37% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the pilot was able to control the aircraft effectively during the landing roll. The runway rollout alignment was reported as very good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the landing roll and bring it to a stop safely. Overall, the landing was successful, but there are opportunities for improvement, particularly in terms of reducing the threshold speed and improving the accuracy of the touchdown.
