The Cessna 172 departed EDSH Backnang-Heiningen Airfield from runway 28. The aircraft used 314 m of runway, representing 63 % of the available length, and became airborne at a liftoff speed of 56 kt. Ambient conditions were 20 °C with a wind of 17 kt from 326°, giving a crosswind component of 11 kt and a headwind component of 12 kt.

During the approach the pilot entered a left-hand pattern from runway 28, covering less than 1 nm in 39 seconds for the entry and less than 1 nm in 18 seconds on the crosswind leg. The downwind turn spanned 1 nm with an angle to the runway of 71.6°, followed by a downwind leg of 2 nm completed in 52 seconds. The base-leg turn covered 1 nm with a 3.3° angle to the runway. The final approach was established from the east on a heading of 267.0°, at 1 nm and 581 ft AGL, maintaining the same wind conditions as reported for departure.

Landing was executed on runway 28, whose total length is 499 m. The threshold speed was slightly below the target at 49 kt. Touchdown occurred 59 m down the runway at 44 kt with a vertical speed of minus 234 fpm, and the aircraft aligned perfectly with the runway centreline. The total landing distance measured 171 m, equivalent to 34 % of the runway length.

Rollout was completed with very good alignment, and the aircraft remained on the centreline throughout the deceleration phase.

In total the flight covered 4 nm, required 5 minutes of elapsed time, and consumed 2 kg of fuel.
