Departing from Groningen Airport Eelde, the Sirius aircraft initiated its takeoff roll on runway 23, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 59 kt in a distance of 259 m, which represented 10% of the available runway length. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 15 °C and a negligible wind of 1 kt from 270°, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind component.
As the aircraft entered the left-hand traffic pattern, it demonstrated a high degree of maneuverability, completing the pattern entry in less than 1 nm in 23 seconds. The subsequent downwind turn, base leg turn, and final turn were executed with precision, with distances of 1 nm, 1 nm, and less than 1 nm, respectively. The aircraft maintained a steady heading of 231.0° during the final approach, descending from 165 ft agl to touch down on runway 23. The touchdown speed of 38 kt was within acceptable limits, and the touchdown distance of 414 m was satisfactory, considering the available runway length of 2,492 m.
The Sirius aircraft performed a textbook landing, with a perfect runway touchdown alignment and an excellent touchdown rate of -89 fpm.
