The flight began with a departure roll from runway 25 at EDX1 Hoherodskopf, a small airfield in Germany. The aircraft, a Piper PA-24-250 Comanche, accelerated down the runway and lifted off at a speed of 69 kt, covering a distance of 261 m, which was 31% of the runway length. The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 20 °C and a gentle wind blowing at 2 kt from a direction of 359 °.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airfield, it began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile southwest of EDX1 Hoherodskopf Schotten. The climb was steep, with the aircraft rising from an altitude of 2,704 ft asl to 3,317 ft asl in just 1 minute, covering a distance of 3 nm. This rapid ascent was followed by a brief level cruise, which lasted for 2 minutes and covered a distance of 4 nm, 2 miles south of Schotten.
The enroute descent began 1 mile northeast of Nidda, with the aircraft descending from an altitude of 3,037 ft asl to 1,119 ft asl in 4 minutes, covering a distance of 7 nm. This descent was a gradual one, allowing the aircraft to lose altitude without compromising its airspeed.
As the aircraft approached its destination, EDFB Reichelsheim Airfield, it began its final approach to runway 18, flying from the north at a heading of 153.0 °. The aircraft was at an altitude of 703 ft agl and 1 nm from the runway threshold when it started its descent. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 25 °C and a gentle wind blowing at 4 kt from a direction of 51 °.
The landing itself was smooth, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 56 kt and a distance of 323 m, which was 54% of the runway length. The touchdown rate was also smooth, at -125 fpm, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned, by 9.1 m from the centreline.
In total, the flight covered a distance of 17 nm and used 5 kg of fuel, taking 9 minutes to complete. The aircraft performed well throughout the flight, demonstrating its capabilities as a reliable and efficient aircraft.

The Piper PA-24-250 Comanche successfully landed at EDFB Reichelsheim Airfield, achieving a score of 92.5%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north, heading 153.0° at 1 nautical mile and 703 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a smooth final approach, taking into account the local weather conditions, which included a temperature of 25°C and a gentle wind of 4 knots at 51°.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway at a speed of 74 knots, which was slightly above the target threshold speed. However, the touchdown distance of 323 meters was considered good, indicating a well-executed landing. The touchdown speed of 56 knots was also within acceptable limits, and the touchdown rate of -125 feet per minute was smooth, suggesting a controlled descent.
The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained a stable and aligned approach. The total landing distance of 661 meters was 54% of the runway length, which is a reasonable distance considering the aircraft's size and the runway's length of 1,230 meters.
However, there was a slight deviation in the runway rollout alignment, with the aircraft being 9.1 meters off-centerline. This minor misalignment may be attributed to the pilot's efforts to maintain control and stability during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the pilot demonstrating good control and judgment throughout the approach and landing phases.
