Departing from Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, the Cessna C172 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a short distance of less than 1 nm covered in under 1 minute. With a gentle departure roll from runway 27, the aircraft lifted off the ground at a speed of 68 kt, utilizing just 14% of the available runway length of 468 m. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 16 °C and a light headwind of 1 kt.
As the aircraft climbed away from Schiphol, it began its enroute climb, reaching an altitude of 1,678 ft asl in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 3 nm. The climb was initiated overhead the town of Aalsmeerderbrug, marking the beginning of the enroute level cruise phase, which lasted for 41 minutes and covered a distance of 81 nm. The aircraft then began its descent, reducing its altitude from 2,279 ft asl to 1,689 ft asl in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nm. The descent was initiated 1 mile east of Vilvoorde, Belgium, and the aircraft entered the right-hand pattern for runway 25R at Brussels Airport.
The approach and landing phase was completed with a right-hand pattern entry, followed by a series of turns and legs, culminating in a final approach to runway 25R from the north-east. The aircraft touched down at a speed of 64 kt, with a touchdown distance of 137 m, slightly above the target. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline, and the runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 15.4 m. The total landing distance was 702 m, accounting for 23% of the available runway length. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, a distance of less than 1 nm covered in 3 minutes, using a total of 29 kg of fuel for the 91 nm flight, which lasted 52 minutes.

The Cessna C172 touched down on runway 25R at EBBR Brussels Airport with a slightly above-target threshold speed of 63 kt. The approach quality was good, with a threshold height that met expectations. The aircraft maintained a steady heading of 247.0° as it descended from 118 ft agl to touch down on the runway. The touchdown distance of 137 m was within acceptable limits, but the touchdown speed of 64 kt was slightly faster than desired, resulting in a very hard touchdown rate of -579 fpm.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 4.9 m. This deviation was not significant, but it did set the stage for a slightly challenging rollout phase. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 16 °C and a light headwind of 1 kt, contributed to a relatively smooth landing. The crosswind component was negligible, with a wind direction of 269°.
The rollout phase was marked by a continued misalignment from the centreline, with the aircraft deviating by 15.4 m. Despite this, the total landing distance of 702 m was only 23% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing. Overall, the landing performance was satisfactory, with a score of 89.3%. While there were some minor deviations from the ideal, the pilot demonstrated good control and management of the aircraft throughout the approach, touchdown, and rollout phases.
