Departing from Groningen Airport Eelde, the Kodiak 100 aircraft began its takeoff roll on runway 23, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 90 kt in a distance of 1,505 meters, which equated to 60% of the available runway length. The local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 15 °C and a light wind of 1 kt from 270°, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind component.
As the aircraft entered the left-hand traffic pattern, it demonstrated a high degree of maneuverability, completing the pattern entry in less than 1 nm in 17 seconds. The subsequent crosswind turn was executed with equal precision, taking 16 seconds to complete. The pilot then initiated a downwind turn, maintaining a 45-degree angle to the runway and a distance of 1 nm. The downwind leg itself was flown for 3 nm in 84 seconds, before the aircraft began its base leg turn, which covered a distance of 2 nm and featured an angle to the runway of 11.5 degrees. The final approach was conducted from the north-east, with the aircraft descending to 476 ft above ground level (agl) at a distance of 1 nm from the runway threshold.
The Kodiak 100 touched down on runway 23 at Groningen Airport Eelde, 185 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a speed of 55 kt and a touchdown rate of -74 fpm, which was considered excellent. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the aircraft's performance was consistent with the local weather conditions, which remained unchanged throughout the flight. The total flight distance was 9 nm, and the aircraft used 10 kg of fuel, completing the flight in 5 minutes.

The final approach to runway 23 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde was initiated from the north east, aligning with the heading of 229.0° at 1 nautical mile and 476 feet above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height observed. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target, registering 77 knots, which may have been a result of the aircraft's weight or configuration.
As the aircraft touched down on the runway, the touchdown point was located 185 meters beyond the touchdown zone, indicating a slight over-run. Nevertheless, the touchdown speed of 55 knots was within acceptable limits, and the touchdown rate of -74 feet per minute was excellent, demonstrating a high degree of control and precision. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, with the aircraft centered on the runway centerline. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from 270°, contributed to a relatively calm and stable environment.
The overall performance of the landing was satisfactory, with a score of 95.4%. The aircraft's ability to maintain a stable approach and touchdown, despite the slightly high threshold speed, was a testament to the pilot's skill and experience. The rollout phase was smooth and controlled, with the aircraft remaining aligned with the runway centerline. Overall, the landing was a creditable performance, with the aircraft demonstrating a high degree of proficiency and control.
