Departing from runway 26R at Locarno Airport (LSZL), the Tecnam P2008 JC began its takeoff roll, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 58 kt in a distance of 536 m, which accounted for 67% of the available runway length. The aircraft lifted off into a temperature of 36 °C, with a gentle tailwind of 2 kt and a crosswind of 5 kt. The climb phase commenced approximately 1 mile northwest of Vira, Switzerland, where the aircraft ascended from 1,624 ft above sea level to 2,998 ft, a vertical gain of 1,373 ft in just 3 minutes, covering a horizontal distance of 4 nm.
Following the initial climb, the aircraft transitioned into a level cruise, maintaining an altitude of 2,998 ft as it flew east of Brissago, Switzerland. This phase lasted for 2 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 2 nm. The descent phase began 1 mile south of Brissago, where the aircraft descended from 2,832 ft to 2,025 ft, a decrease of 806 ft in 2 minutes, covering a horizontal distance of 2 nm. The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, this time flying south-east of Brissago, covering a distance of 4 nm in 2 minutes.
As the aircraft approached Locarno Airport, it began its final approach to runway 08L from the south-west, flying at a heading of 68.0° at 3 nm and 1,150 ft above ground level. The landing was executed with a threshold speed of 62 kt, which was above the target value. The touchdown distance was 175 m, and the touchdown speed was 49 kt, slightly above the recommended value. The touchdown rate was smooth at -114 fpm, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.0 m from the centreline. The total landing distance was 349 m, accounting for 44% of the available runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, and the aircraft used a total of 2 kg of fuel for the 17 nm flight, which lasted 12 minutes.

The final approach to runway 08L at LSZL Locarno Airport was conducted from the south west, aligning with the heading of 68.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,150 feet above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height achieved. However, the threshold speed was above the target, registering 62 knots, which may indicate a slight over-control by the pilot.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft exhibited a touchdown distance of 175 meters, which was within acceptable limits. The touchdown speed of 49 knots was slightly faster than desired, but the touchdown rate of -114 feet per minute was smooth, indicating a well-executed landing. Unfortunately, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned, deviating 5.0 meters from the centreline. This minor deviation may be attributed to the crosswind component of 5 knots from the right, which was present during the landing.
The total landing distance of 349 meters, accounting for 44% of the runway length, was reasonable considering the conditions. The runway rollout alignment was very good, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control and stabilize the aircraft during the critical phase of the landing. Overall, the landing performance was satisfactory, with a score of 96.1% reflecting the minor deviations from the ideal touchdown speed and runway alignment.
