Departing from a location in the Provincie Drenthe, The Netherlands, the Grumman AA-5A Cheetah initiated its enroute climb phase overhead Yde, ascending from an initial altitude of 20 feet above sea level to 975 feet above sea level. This climb of 955 feet in just 2 minutes was achieved while covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft's rate of climb was impressive, demonstrating its ability to efficiently gain altitude in a short period.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft transitioned into a level cruise phase, maintaining a steady altitude overhead Donderen. This phase lasted for 2 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The cruise phase allowed the aircraft to conserve fuel and maintain a stable flight path, preparing for the final approach to Groningen Airport Eelde. As the aircraft began its final approach to runway 23, it was flying at an altitude of 147 feet above ground level and a heading of 231.0°, with a distance of 0 nautical miles from the runway threshold.
The Grumman AA-5A Cheetah executed a smooth landing on runway 23, with a threshold speed of 64 knots and a touchdown speed of 38 knots. The touchdown distance of 304 meters was well within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -56 feet per minute was excellent. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also satisfactory. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from 270°, contributed to a stable and controlled landing. The total landing distance of 446 meters was only 18% of the runway length, demonstrating the aircraft's ability to land efficiently and safely. The total flight distance of 6 nautical miles was achieved in 5 minutes, with a fuel consumption of -1 kilogram.
