The flight began with a departure roll from runway 21L at EDCM Kamenz Airfield, where the DA40-XLS aircraft took off with a takeoff distance of 124 meters, which accounted for 11% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 61 knots. At the time of takeoff, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots at 269 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 1 knot.

After taking off, the aircraft entered a right-hand pattern from runway 21L, completing the turn in less than 1 nautical mile in 16 seconds. The subsequent right-hand pattern crosswind turn was completed in 15 seconds, demonstrating the aircraft's agility and responsiveness. The pilot then executed a pattern downwind turn, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile at an angle of 53.1 degrees to the runway. The downwind leg itself took 50 seconds to complete, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile.

The base leg turn was executed at an angle of 53.4 degrees to the runway, and the base leg itself was completed in less than 1 nautical mile in 17 seconds. The final turn was completed in 25 seconds, after which the aircraft began its final approach to runway 21L from the north-east, heading 213.0 degrees at an altitude of 82 feet above ground level.

The landing was executed with a threshold speed that was slightly below the target speed of 56 knots. The touchdown distance was 160 meters, which was considered good, and the touchdown speed was 50 knots, also considered good. The touchdown rate was perfect at -24 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The total landing distance was 449 meters, which accounted for 41% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect.

In terms of fuel consumption, the total flight distance was 5 nautical miles, which was completed in 4 minutes, and the aircraft used 1 kilogram of fuel. Overall, the flight was executed smoothly and efficiently, with the pilot demonstrating good control and handling of the aircraft.

Landing on runway 21L at EDCM Kamenz Airfield in the DA40-XLS

Landing Score 97.63 %

Landing Summary

The DA40-XLS aircraft successfully landed at EDCM Kamenz Airfield, achieving a high score of 97.6%. The final approach was conducted from the north-east, aligning with the runway 21L at a heading of 213.0°. At the point of landing, the aircraft was at 0 nm and 82 ft above ground level (agl).

The landing was executed smoothly, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 56 kt, which was slightly below the target threshold speed. However, this did not affect the overall performance of the landing. The touchdown distance of 160 m was considered good, and the touchdown speed of 50 kt was also within acceptable limits.

One of the notable aspects of this landing was the perfect touchdown rate of -24 fpm, which indicates a controlled and stable descent. Additionally, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's skill and precision in navigating the aircraft to the runway.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 16 °C and a gentle wind of 2 kt at 269°. This resulted in a minimal crosswind component of 2 kt and a headwind of 1 kt, which did not pose any significant challenges to the landing.

The total landing distance of 449 m was 41% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.

Overall, this landing was a testament to the pilot's skill and experience, as well as the aircraft's performance capabilities. The high score achieved reflects the precision and control demonstrated throughout the landing process.
