Next time

Arrival

Make small rudder corrections against a fixed point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline.

What happened: You drifted off the centreline on the approach.

Watch for: Runway centreline: tracked all the way to the threshold.

See Arrival Approach

Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

Flight narrative

The Diamond DA40 taxied to runway 23 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde and commenced the take-off roll, covering 369 m which represents 15 % of the available runway. Liftoff was achieved at 63 kt. Ambient conditions were 15 °C with a wind from 270° at 2 kt, including a 1 kt cross-wind component and a 2 kt head-wind component.

After departure the aircraft entered a left-hand pattern on runway 23, covering less than 1 nm in 18 seconds before proceeding to the next leg.

The subsequent left-hand crosswind leg was flown on the same runway, also less than 1 nm in length and completed in 25 seconds.

The downwind segment of the pattern was executed with a distance of less than 1 nm and required 39 seconds to fly.

During the base-leg turn the aircraft travelled 1 nm while maintaining a 45° turn to the runway, with an indicated angle of 16.2°.

The final approach to runway 23 was conducted with a descent from 346 ft AGL to 20 ft AGL over a period of 40 seconds, and the aircraft met the stabilisation gate criteria.

Landing was made on runway 23, whose total length is 2,490 m. The threshold speed was recorded at 70 kt, touchdown occurred 344 m down the runway at a speed of 60 kt, and the vertical speed at touchdown was minus 24 fpm. Runway alignment at touchdown was perfect, and the local weather remained 15 °C, wind 2 kt from 270°, with a 1 kt cross-wind and a 2 kt head-wind.

Rollout continued along the runway with a total landing distance of 615 m, representing 25 % of the runway, and alignment remained perfect throughout the deceleration phase.

In total the flight covered 4 nm, required 3 minutes of flight time, and consumed 1 kg of fuel.

Landing Summary

The Diamond DA40 made its final approach to runway 23 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde, descending from 346 ft agl to 20 ft agl in 40 seconds and was scored on the stabilisation gates; local weather was 15 °C with wind 2 kt from 270 °, a 1 kt cross-wind component and a 2 kt head-wind.

At threshold the aircraft presented a good threshold height and a good threshold speed of 70 kt, maintaining the prescribed descent profile into the flare.

Touchdown occurred 344 m down the runway at a good speed of 60 kt, with a perfect touchdown rate of minus 24 fpm and perfect runway touchdown alignment.

The rollout covered a total landing distance of 615 m, representing 25 % of the 2 490 m runway, and rollout alignment was perfect.

To refine an already strong performance, the pilot could aim to reduce the touchdown point slightly to shorten the rollout distance, while preserving the precise descent rate that produced the stable approach.
