Taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Luxembourg-Findel International Airport (ELLX) was a swift process, taking less than a minute to cover the short distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The Boeing 737-700 then began its departure roll on runway 24, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 180 knots. The takeoff distance of 1,552 meters accounted for 39% of the runway's length, a relatively efficient performance given the local weather conditions. A temperature of 18°C and a wind of 18 knots from 280°, with a crosswind component of 11 knots and a headwind component of 13 knots, presented a moderate challenge to the pilots.
Following a right-hand pattern entry from runway 24, the aircraft navigated the circuit, completing a right-hand pattern crosswind turn in a mere 5 seconds. The downwind turn, with an angle to the runway of 45 degrees and a distance of 3 nautical miles, was followed by a downwind leg of 2 nautical miles, covered in 20 seconds. The final approach to runway 06, which was 3,989 meters long, was initiated from the southwest, with a heading of 43.0° at 2 nautical miles and an altitude of 402 feet above ground level. However, the landing was not without issues, as the touchdown speed of 211 knots was excessively fast, and the touchdown point was 60 meters beyond the touchdown zone.
The landing performance was further complicated by a runway touchdown position that was slightly misaligned by 3.9 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 12°C and a wind of 3 knots from 287°, with a crosswind component of 2 knots and a tailwind component of 2 knots. Despite these challenges, the aircraft managed to complete the flight, covering a total distance of 5 nautical miles in 3 minutes and consuming 118 kilograms of fuel.

The Boeing 737-700 touched down on runway 06 at ELLX Luxembourg-Findel International Airport, a 3,989-meter-long asphalt surface. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height achieved. However, the threshold speed was excessively high at 218 knots, indicating a potential for a long rollout. The aircraft descended from an altitude of 402 feet above ground level (agl) at 2 nautical miles from the runway threshold, aligning with the 43.0° approach heading.
As the aircraft made contact with the runway, the touchdown point was located 60 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone. The touchdown speed of 211 knots was also excessively fast, which may have contributed to the slightly misaligned runway touchdown position, deviating by 3.9 meters from the centerline. The touchdown rate of -275 feet per minute was fair, indicating a relatively smooth transition from the air to the ground. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 12°C and a light wind of 3 knots from 287°, did not significantly impact the landing.
The overall performance of the landing was satisfactory, with a score of 82.4%. While there were some areas for improvement, such as the high threshold speed and excessive touchdown speed, the aircraft demonstrated a fair ability to control its descent and maintain a relatively smooth touchdown. The rollout phase was not specifically evaluated in this report, but it is likely that the long rollout distance, resulting from the high threshold speed, would have been a concern for the pilots.
