The flight began with a departure roll from runway 23 at the Ocean Reef Club Airport. The aircraft, a DA40-NG, accelerated down the runway and lifted off at a speed of 78 knots. The takeoff distance was 408 meters, which accounted for 33% of the runway length. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 269 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind.

As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb 1 mile southwest of the Ocean Reef Club Airport. The climb was steep, with the aircraft ascending from 1,022 feet above sea level to 2,410 feet above sea level in just 1 minute, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. This rapid ascent was followed by a level cruise phase, during which the aircraft flew at a steady altitude of 2,410 feet above sea level for 11 minutes, covering a distance of 18 nautical miles.

The enroute descent phase began 1 mile north of Tavernier, Florida, and saw the aircraft descend from 2,944 feet above sea level to 284 feet above sea level in just 5 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 26 at the Tavernaero Park Airport was made from the east, with the aircraft flying at a heading of 260 degrees and an altitude of 265 feet above ground level.

The landing was smooth, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 53 knots and a touchdown distance of 158 meters. The touchdown rate was also smooth, at -101 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline, by 6.6 meters. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were similar to those at departure, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 269 degrees.

The total landing distance was 278 meters, which accounted for 44% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft during the landing phase. The total flight distance was 23 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 19 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 5 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing Score 96.24 %

Landing Summary

The DA40-NG aircraft successfully landed at FA81 Tavernaero Park Airport, achieving a score of 96.2%. The final approach was conducted from the east, heading 260.0° at 1 nm and 265 ft above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 26, which has a length of 634 meters.

The threshold height was satisfactory, but the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 62 knots. However, the touchdown distance of 158 meters was considered good, and the touchdown speed of 53 knots was also within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate was smooth at -101 feet per minute (fpm), indicating a controlled descent.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.6 meters from the centerline, which may require some adjustments in the approach or landing technique. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a light wind of 1 knot at 269°. The crosswind component was negligible, and the headwind component was 1 knot, which had a minimal impact on the landing.

The total landing distance of 278 meters was 44% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was well under control during the landing roll. Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated good skills and control throughout the approach and landing phases.
