Next time

Arrival

Make small rudder corrections against a fixed point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline.

What happened: You drifted off the centreline on the approach.

Watch for: Runway centreline: tracked all the way to the threshold.

See Arrival Approach

Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

Flight narrative

The Diamond DA42 Twin Star taxied to runway 23 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde and commenced the departure roll. The aircraft accelerated over 700 m, representing 28 % of the runway, and achieved liftoff at 87 kt. Ambient conditions were temperature 16 °C with wind 2 kt from 270°, a cross-wind component of 1 kt and a head-wind component of 2 kt.

The aircraft entered a left-hand pattern for runway 23. The entry segment covered 2 nm in 26 seconds. The subsequent left-hand cross-wind segment spanned 1 nm in 30 seconds. During the downwind turn the aircraft flew 2 nm with a 62.0 ° angle to the runway (45 ° reference). The downwind leg extended 2 nm and was completed in 58 seconds. The base turn covered another 2 nm with a 78.8 ° angle to the runway (45 ° reference), followed by a base leg of 2 nm completed in 61 seconds. The final turn was less than 1 nm and required 24 seconds to align with the runway.

On final approach the aircraft descended from 322 ft AGL to 36 ft AGL in 21 seconds, meeting the stabilisation gates.

Touchdown occurred on runway 23, whose length is 2,490 m. The threshold speed was recorded at 85 kt, and the aircraft touched down 282 m from the threshold at 67 kt with a firm rate of minus 395 fpm. Alignment at touchdown was perfect. The total landing roll measured 468 m, representing 19 % of the runway. Weather at the time of landing was temperature 15 °C, wind 2 kt from 270°, cross-wind 1 kt and head-wind 2 kt.

Runway rollout alignment remained perfect as the aircraft decelerated and exited the runway.

The flight covered a total distance of 11 nm, required 5 of time, and consumed 3 kg of fuel.

Landing Summary

The Diamond DA42 Twin Star approached runway 23 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde, descending from 322 ft AGL to 36 ft AGL in 21 seconds and was scored on the stabilisation gates. Local weather was 15 °C with wind 2 kt from 270°, a 1 kt cross-wind component and a 2 kt head-wind component.

At the threshold the aircraft maintained a good height and a good threshold speed of 85 kt, completing the flare after the 21-second descent from 322 ft AGL to 36 ft AGL.

Touchdown occurred 282 m down the runway at a good speed of 67 kt; the touchdown rate was firm at minus 395 fpm and runway touchdown alignment was perfect.

The rollout covered a total landing distance of 468 m, representing 19 % of the 2 490 m runway, and rollout alignment remained perfect.

To refine the performance, a slightly softer flare could reduce the firm touchdown rate while preserving the excellent speed and alignment already demonstrated. Maintaining the current approach profile will continue to support the strong overall score of 87.8 %.
