This flight was conducted in a Cessna C172 aircraft, starting with an enroute climb from the Marl-Loemühle Airfield in Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany. The aircraft took off from a height of 397 feet above sea level and climbed to 1,136 feet in just 1 minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. This rapid ascent demonstrates the aircraft's ability to quickly gain altitude.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 3 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. This phase of the flight allowed the pilot to stabilize the aircraft at a consistent altitude and speed, preparing for the final approach to the runway.
The final approach to runway 25 at the Marl-Loemühle Airfield was initiated from the east, with the aircraft heading 251.0 degrees at a distance of 1 nautical mile from the runway and at an altitude of 641 feet above ground level. The pilot successfully landed the aircraft on the 682-meter-long runway, with a threshold height that was considered good.
However, the landing was not without some issues. The threshold speed was significantly higher than the target speed, reaching 68 knots. Additionally, the touchdown point was located very far down the runway, using more than 50% of the available runway. Despite this, the touchdown speed of 48 knots was considered good, and the touchdown rate of -154 feet per minute was also satisfactory. Unfortunately, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline, deviating by 5.3 meters.
The local weather conditions during the flight were characterized by a temperature of 11 degrees Celsius. The total flight distance was 3 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 6 minutes. Notably, the aircraft used 2 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

The Cessna C172 aircraft successfully landed at EDLM Marl-Loemühle Airfield, achieving a score of 89.9%. The final approach was conducted from the east, heading 251.0° at a distance of 1 nautical mile and an altitude of 641 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft was on a clear path to land on runway 25, which has a length of 682 meters.
Upon landing, the threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed was above the target speed, coming in at 68 knots. This may indicate that the pilot could have made some adjustments to the approach to achieve a more optimal speed.
The touchdown point was a notable aspect of the landing, as it was located more than 50% of the way down the runway. This suggests that the pilot may have been able to make some adjustments to the approach to achieve a shorter touchdown point. The touchdown speed of 48 knots was reported as good, indicating that the pilot was able to bring the aircraft in at a safe and controlled speed. The touchdown rate of -154 feet per minute (fpm) was also reported as good, indicating that the pilot was able to bring the aircraft in at a safe and controlled rate.
One area for improvement was the runway touchdown position, which was slightly misaligned by 5.3 meters from the centerline. This may indicate that the pilot could have made some adjustments to the approach to achieve a more centered touchdown. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were reported as a temperature of 11°C, which may have had some impact on the aircraft's performance.
Overall, the landing was successful, but there are some areas for improvement that the pilot could focus on in future approaches. With some adjustments to the approach and landing technique, the pilot may be able to achieve an even higher score and improve the overall safety and efficiency of the landing.
