This private charter flight was conducted in a Diamond DA40NG aircraft, which took off from a location 1 mile northwest of Helgoland, a small island in the state of Schleswig-Holstein, Germany. The initial climb began at an altitude of 1,143 feet above sea level and gradually increased to 326 feet above sea level, a total rise of 817 feet, over the course of 2 minutes. During this time, the aircraft covered a distance of 2 nautical miles.
As the flight progressed, the aircraft began its final approach to runway 03 at Helgoland-Düne Airport, which is located on the island of Helgoland. The approach was made from the southwest, with the aircraft heading in a direction of 28.0 degrees. At this point, the aircraft was 1 nautical mile away from the runway and was flying at an altitude of 312 feet above ground level.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 03, which has a length of 377 meters. The threshold height was reported to be good, and the threshold speed of 50 knots was well below the target speed, requiring the pilot to exercise caution to avoid stalling the aircraft. The touchdown distance was 172 meters, and the touchdown speed was 49 knots, both of which were considered good. The touchdown rate was an excellent -100 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The local weather conditions at the time of the flight were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 60 degrees. The crosswind and headwind components were both 1 knot. The total landing distance was 301 meters, which accounted for 80% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also very good.
In terms of the flight's performance, the total distance traveled was 3 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 4 minutes. Notably, the aircraft used no fuel during the flight, indicating a highly efficient operation.
