The flight began with a departure roll from runway 18 at EDFB Reichelsheim Airfield. The aircraft took off in a distance of 330 meters, which accounted for 27% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 90 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 5 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 0 knots at 0 degrees.

After takeoff, the aircraft entered a left-hand pattern, which was completed in a short distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 93 seconds. The subsequent left-hand pattern crosswind leg was also completed quickly, taking less than 1 nautical mile in 20 seconds. The aircraft then proceeded to the downwind turn, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles at an angle of 24.2 degrees to the runway. The downwind leg itself was 5 nautical miles long and took 99 seconds to complete.

The base leg turn was the next phase of the pattern, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles at an angle of 10.6 degrees to the runway. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 18, heading 176.0 degrees at 1 nautical mile and 320 feet above ground level.

The landing on runway 18 was successful, with a threshold speed of 97 knots and a touchdown speed of 90 knots. The touchdown distance was 194 meters, which was within the acceptable range. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 8.5 meters. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were the same as those at takeoff.

The total landing distance was 721 meters, which accounted for 59% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned from the centreline by 8.1 meters. The total flight distance was 9 nautical miles, taking 6 minutes to complete, and the aircraft used 5 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing Summary

The aircraft successfully landed on runway 18 at EDFB Reichelsheim Airfield, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its approach and landing techniques. The pilot's final approach to the runway from the north, heading 176.0° at 1 nm and 320 ft above ground level (agl), was executed with precision, setting the stage for a smooth touchdown.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down at a speed of 90 kn, which was within the acceptable threshold speed of 97 kn. The touchdown distance of 194 m was also well within the expected range, indicating that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft throughout the descent. The touchdown rate of -339 fpm was firm, suggesting that the pilot had successfully managed the aircraft's energy and rate of descent.

However, there were a couple of minor issues with the landing. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 8.5 m from the centreline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's alignment or a minor error in navigation. Additionally, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.1 m from the centreline, which may have been due to a similar reason.

Despite these minor issues, the overall performance of the aircraft and the pilot was impressive. The total landing distance of 721 m was 59% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 5°C and no wind, also contributed to the smoothness of the landing.

Overall, the aircraft's landing on runway 18 at EDFB Reichelsheim Airfield was a success, with the pilot demonstrating a high level of skill and proficiency in their approach and landing techniques. While there were a couple of minor issues with alignment, the overall performance of the aircraft and the pilot was impressive, and the landing was executed with precision and control.
