The flight began with a departure roll from runway 32 at Leeds Bradford Airport, EGNM. The aircraft, a DA40-XLS, accelerated down the runway and lifted off at a speed of 74 kt, covering a distance of 69 m, which was just 4% of the runway length. The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 15 °C and a light wind blowing at 1 kt from a direction of 270 °, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead the town of Yeadon, located in the City and Borough of Leeds, England. During this phase, the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 1,193 ft above sea level to 1,666 ft, an increase of 472 ft, in just 1 minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nm. This rapid climb was a testament to the aircraft's performance capabilities.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which also started overhead Yeadon. This phase lasted for 2 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nm, allowing the aircraft to stabilize at a consistent altitude and airspeed.
As the flight progressed, the aircraft began its final approach to runway 32 at EGNM Leeds Bradford Airport. The approach was made from the south east, with the aircraft heading 317.0 ° at an altitude of 255 ft above ground level and a distance of 1 nm from the runway threshold. The local weather conditions remained unchanged, with a temperature of 15 °C and a light wind blowing at 1 kt from a direction of 270 °.
The landing was executed smoothly, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 52 kt and a distance of 161 m. The touchdown speed was slightly below the target speed, but the touchdown distance was good, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The aircraft's performance during the landing phase was further highlighted by an excellent touchdown rate of -51 fpm.
In conclusion, the flight was a successful one, with the DA40-XLS aircraft performing well throughout its various phases. The aircraft's climb and cruise performance were impressive, and the landing was executed smoothly, with good touchdown speed and distance. The total flight distance was 4 nm, and the flight used 1 kg of fuel.

The DA40-XLS aircraft successfully landed at EGNM Leeds Bradford Airport, achieving a perfect score of 100.0%. The final approach was conducted from the south east, aligning with the runway 32 heading of 317.0° at a distance of 1 nautical mile and an altitude of 255 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, indicating a well-executed approach. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 63 knots, which may be attributed to the pilot's decision to prioritize a smooth touchdown over achieving the exact target speed. Nevertheless, this did not compromise the overall quality of the landing.
The touchdown distance of 161 meters was within acceptable limits, demonstrating the pilot's ability to control the aircraft's descent and maintain a stable approach. The touchdown speed of 52 knots was also satisfactory, indicating that the pilot had successfully slowed the aircraft down to a safe speed before touching down.
One of the most impressive aspects of this landing was the touchdown rate, which was an excellent -51 feet per minute (fpm). This suggests that the pilot had a high degree of control over the aircraft's descent and was able to touch down with minimal impact. The runway touchdown alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilot had maintained a stable and aligned approach.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a light wind of 1 knot from 270°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and headwind, making the landing even more challenging and impressive. Overall, this landing demonstrates the pilot's skill and expertise in executing a safe and controlled touchdown.
