Departing from İstanbul Airport's runway 35L, the Boeing 737-MAX8 began its journey with a taxiing period of six minutes, covering a distance of one nautical mile. As the aircraft rolled onto the runway, it accelerated to a liftoff speed of 163 knots, clearing the ground with a takeoff distance of 5,802 feet, which accounted for 43% of the available runway length. The local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 70°F and a wind speed of 12 knots from a direction of 143°, resulting in a crosswind component of 7 knots and a tailwind component of 10 knots.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb approximately one mile northwest of Arnavutköy, Turkey. Over the course of 21 minutes, the aircraft ascended from an initial altitude of 1,285 feet above sea level to a cruising altitude of 38,003 feet, a vertical gain of 36,718 feet. This climb phase covered a distance of 136 nautical miles. Following a 107-minute cruise at a steady altitude, the aircraft commenced its enroute descent approximately one mile northwest of Gaimersheim, Germany. The descent phase, which lasted 26 minutes, saw the aircraft drop from 37,992 feet to 1,583 feet, a decrease of 36,409 feet. This descent phase covered a distance of 130 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached Frankfurt Airport, it began its final approach to runway 25L from the east, aligning itself with the runway at a heading of 249.0° and an altitude of 1,232 feet above ground level. The aircraft touched down on the runway with a touchdown distance of 1,493 feet, slightly above the target value. The touchdown speed of 143 knots was a little fast, but the touchdown rate of -292 feet per minute was fair. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also satisfactory. Following a taxiing period of six minutes, the aircraft came to rest at the gate, having completed a total flight distance of 1,005 nautical miles and consuming 12,669 pounds of fuel over a flight time of 167 minutes.
