Departure
Arrival
Departing from the vicinity of Yde, a rural area in the Dutch province of Drenthe, Gabriel White initiated the climb phase, ascending from an initial altitude of 17 feet above sea level to 695 feet above sea level. This notable increase in altitude was achieved within a short period of 2 minutes, covering a distance of approximately 2 nautical miles. The climb was characterized by a steady and controlled rate of ascent, ultimately positioning the aircraft for the subsequent phases of the flight.
As the aircraft approached Groningen Airport Eelde, Gabriel White began the final approach to runway 23, aligning the aircraft with the runway from a northeasterly direction. At this point, the aircraft was at an altitude of 673 feet above ground level and 0 nautical miles from the runway threshold. The approach was executed with precision, with the aircraft maintaining a steady heading of 231.0 degrees. Notably, the threshold height was found to be excessively above the target, while the threshold speed was below the desired value, necessitating caution to avoid stalling the aircraft.
The landing was executed successfully, with the aircraft touching down on runway 23, which has a length of 2,493 meters. The touchdown distance of 419 meters was within acceptable limits, and the touchdown speed of 42 knots was also satisfactory. The touchdown rate was smooth, with a descent rate of -148 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating a high degree of precision in the approach and landing phases. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from 270 degrees, contributed to a relatively calm and stable environment for the landing. The total flight distance was a mere 2 nautical miles, and the flight utilized approximately 1 kilogram of fuel.

The final approach to runway 23 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde was initiated from the north east, heading 231.0° at 0 nm and 673 ft above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a threshold height of 170 ft agl, which was excessively over target. However, the threshold speed of 53 kt was well below the target, necessitating caution to avoid stalling the aircraft.
As the aircraft touched down on the runway, the touchdown distance of 419 m was good, and the touchdown speed of 42 kt was within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate was smooth, at -148 fpm, indicating a controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, with the aircraft centered on the runway centerline. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 15 °C and a wind of 1 kt at 270°, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind component.
The overall performance of the landing was satisfactory, with a score of 78.5%. The aircraft's ability to maintain a smooth touchdown rate and perfect runway alignment was commendable, despite the excessive threshold height and low threshold speed. However, the pilot should take note of the need to maintain a higher threshold speed to avoid stalling the aircraft.
