As the F70 demonstrator aircraft descended from the south west, it began its final approach to runway 05 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde. At an altitude of 1,440 feet above ground level (agl) and 4 nautical miles from the runway, the aircraft was on track to touch down within the designated touchdown zone. The pilots maintained a heading of 50.0°, aligning the aircraft with the runway centerline.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's performance was satisfactory, with a touchdown speed of 108 knots and a rate of descent of -184 feet per minute. The touchdown point was 228 meters beyond the threshold, which was within acceptable limits. The runway touchdown alignment was also very good, indicating a high degree of control and precision during the landing phase. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 16°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from 270°, contributed to a relatively calm and stable environment for the landing.
The aircraft's performance during the landing phase was further highlighted by its total landing distance of 1,506 meters, which accounted for 60% of the runway length. This was a respectable achievement, given the aircraft's mass and the runway conditions. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled deceleration of the aircraft after touchdown. The total flight distance of 15 nautical miles, which was completed in 6 minutes, and the fuel consumption of -45 kilograms, suggest a highly efficient flight profile.
