This flight was conducted in a DA40-NG aircraft, taking off from LTBA İstanbul Atatürk Airport in Bakırköy, Istanbul, Turkey. The enroute climb began 4 miles south of the airport, with the aircraft ascending from an initial altitude of 1,500 feet above sea level to 1,435 feet above sea level, a gain of 65 feet in just 1 minute. This climb phase covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
As the aircraft approached the airport, it began its final approach to runway 35L from the south, maintaining a heading of 0.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,314 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 35L was successful, with a runway length of 3,004 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 69 knots.
The touchdown distance was within acceptable limits at 453 meters, and the touchdown speed was good at 58 knots. The touchdown rate was particularly impressive, with an excellent rate of -74 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 3.4 meters. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 2 knots from 270 degrees. There was a slight crosswind of 2 knots, but no headwind.
The total landing distance covered was 722 meters, which accounted for 24% of the runway length. During the rollout phase, the aircraft's alignment was slightly off-centre by 12.6 meters. Despite these minor deviations, the overall performance of the flight was satisfactory. The total flight distance was 4 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 3 minutes.

The DA40-NG aircraft successfully landed at LTBA İstanbul Atatürk Airport, with a final approach score of 95.3%. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the south, heading directly towards the runway 35L, which is 3,004 meters long. The pilot maintained a good threshold height and speed, touching down at 69 knots, which is within the acceptable range.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's distance was 453 meters, which is also within the acceptable range. The touchdown speed was 58 knots, and the touchdown rate was an excellent -74 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.4 meters from the centerline, indicating a minor deviation from the ideal landing spot.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots from 270 degrees. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and headwind, making the landing even smoother. The total landing distance was 722 meters, which is only 24% of the runway length, indicating a very short landing distance.
During the rollout, the aircraft's alignment was slightly off by 12.6 meters from the centerline, which is a minor deviation. Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated good control and precision throughout the approach and touchdown phases.
