The flight in question was operated by a Douglas DC-3 aircraft. The flight began with an enroute climb from 2,323 feet above sea level (asl) to the same altitude, resulting in no change in elevation. This climb phase lasted for 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile (nm).
Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered an enroute level cruise phase, which started overhead Bucharest, Romania. This phase lasted for 11 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nm. The aircraft then began another enroute climb from 2,323 ft asl to 5,635 ft asl, an increase of 3,312 ft in 9 minutes, covering 25 nm.
The next enroute level cruise phase started overhead Draganesti, Romania, and lasted for 5 minutes, covering 15 nm. The aircraft then began another enroute climb from 6,825 ft asl to 14,939 ft asl, an increase of 8,113 ft in 10 minutes, covering 21 nm.
As the aircraft continued its journey, it entered an enroute descent phase, starting 2 miles north east of Chiojdu, Romania. The descent from 15,137 ft asl to 2,780 ft asl resulted in a decrease of 12,356 ft in 13 minutes, covering 29 nm.
The aircraft then began another enroute climb from 2,813 ft asl to 3,300 ft asl, an increase of 487 ft in 2 minutes, covering 3 nm. This was followed by an enroute level cruise phase, which started overhead Harman, Romania, and lasted for 4 minutes, covering 6 nm.
The final approach to runway 21 at LRBV Braè™ov-Ghimbav International Airport was made from the north east, heading 219.0° at 1 nm and 619 ft above ground level (agl). The landing on runway 21 was made with a runway length of 2,805 meters. However, the threshold height was above the target, and the threshold speed was excessively high at 104 kt.
The touchdown point was 168 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was excessively fast at 84 kt. The touchdown rate was good at -171 ft per minute (fpm). Additionally, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 11.8 meters from the centreline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 15°C, with a wind speed of 2 kt at 270°. The crosswind was 2 kt, and the headwind was 1 kt. The total landing distance was 1,231 meters, which accounted for 44% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was significantly misaligned by 31.3 meters from the centreline.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area from the runway in less than 1 minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nm. The total flight distance was 99 nm, and the flight duration was 43 minutes. The aircraft used 258 kg of fuel during the flight.

The Douglas DC-3 aircraft has successfully landed at LRBV Braè™ov-Ghimbav International Airport, but the landing was not without its issues. The final approach to runway 21 was initiated from the north east, heading 219.0° at 1 nm and 619 ft above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on the runway, but the touchdown point was 168 m beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating a slight deviation from the intended landing spot.
The touchdown speed of 84 kt was excessively fast, and the threshold speed was also high at 104 kt, exceeding the target speed. However, the touchdown rate of -171 fpm was within the acceptable range, indicating a controlled descent. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 11.8 m from the centreline, which could have contributed to the deviation from the intended landing spot.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 15 °C and a wind speed of 2 kt at 270°. The crosswind was minimal at 2 kt, and the headwind was 1 kt, which did not significantly impact the landing. The total landing distance was 1,231 m, accounting for 44% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight.
The runway rollout alignment was significantly misaligned by 31.3 m from the centreline, indicating a loss of directional control during the rollout phase. This could be attributed to the excessive speed and deviation from the intended landing spot. Overall, while the landing was successful, there were several areas for improvement, including reducing the touchdown speed, improving the runway alignment, and maintaining a more accurate approach to the designated touchdown zone.
