Taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Locarno Airport (LSZL) took approximately 19 minutes, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Tecnam P2008 JC, began its departure roll on runway 08L, utilizing 51% of the available runway length to achieve a takeoff distance of 408 meters. Liftoff speed was reached at 56 knots, with the local weather conditions presenting a temperature of 35 °C and a wind speed of 15 knots at 0°.
As the aircraft transitioned to the enroute climb phase, it began ascending from an altitude of 1,308 feet above sea level to 2,042 feet, a vertical gain of 735 feet over a distance of 3 nautical miles in 2 minutes. This climb phase was initiated overhead Cugnasco, Ticino, Switzerland. Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, maintaining an altitude of 2,042 feet for 4 minutes while covering a distance of 5 nautical miles. The cruise phase concluded 1 mile east of Cugnasco.
The final approach to runway 08L at LSZL was initiated from the west, with the aircraft heading 65.0° at an altitude of 658 feet above ground level and 1 nautical mile from the runway threshold. The landing was executed on the 802-meter-long runway, with a threshold speed of 53 knots and a touchdown distance of 191 meters. The touchdown speed was 43 knots, and the touchdown rate was -166 feet per minute, indicating a good touchdown. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 5.5 meters. The total flight distance was 13 nautical miles, covering a duration of 14 minutes and utilizing 1 kilogram of fuel.

The final approach to runway 08L at LSZL Locarno Airport from the west was initiated at 1 nm and 658 ft above ground level, heading 65.0°. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 53 kt, which was within the acceptable range. The aircraft touched down at a distance of 191 m, which was within the expected parameters, and at a speed of 43 kt, indicating a well-controlled descent. The touchdown rate of -166 fpm was also within the acceptable limits.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's centreline alignment was slightly off, deviating by 5.5 m from the centreline. This deviation was minor and did not significantly impact the overall performance of the landing. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 35 °C and a wind of 8 kt at 360°, contributed to a relatively calm environment, with a crosswind of 8 kt and a headwind of 2 kt. These conditions did not pose a significant challenge to the pilot's ability to execute a safe and controlled landing.
The overall performance of the landing was satisfactory, with a score of 85.3%. While the slight deviation from the centreline was noted, the pilot's ability to control the aircraft's descent and touchdown speed was commendable. The landing was executed within the expected parameters, and the pilot demonstrated a good understanding of the aircraft's performance and handling characteristics.
