The flight began with a departure roll from runway 07C at Frankfurt Airport (EDDF). The aircraft, a PC21, accelerated down the runway and lifted off at a speed of 131 kt, covering a distance of 974 m, which was 24% of the runway length. The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 6 °C and a wind speed of 9 kt from a direction of 30 °, resulting in a crosswind of 6 kt and a headwind of 7 kt.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb 1 mile north east of EDDF, rising from an altitude of 1,955 ft above sea level to 3,495 ft asl in just 1 minute, covering a distance of 2 nm. This rapid ascent was followed by a brief level cruise, lasting 5 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a further 2 nm, before beginning its enroute descent overhead Neu-Isenburg, a town located in the state of Hessen, Germany.
The descent from 3,695 ft asl to 2,210 ft asl took 3 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nm. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 26 at Frankfurt-Egelsbach Airport (EDFE), flying from the east at a heading of 263.0 ° and an altitude of 1,806 ft above ground level. The landing was made on a runway with a length of 1,162 m, and the threshold height was reported as good. The threshold speed was also satisfactory at 91 kt, and the touchdown distance was good at 84 m, with a touchdown speed of 90 kt.
However, the touchdown rate was only fair at -250 fpm, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 7.3 m. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 5 °C and a wind speed of 9 kt from a direction of 29 °, resulting in a crosswind of 7 kt and a tailwind of 5 kt. The total landing distance was 1,011 m, which was 87% of the runway length. Unfortunately, the runway rollout alignment was excessively misaligned from the centreline by 120.0 m.
The total flight distance was 14 nm, and the flight duration was 5 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 29 kg of fuel during the flight.

The aircraft, PC21, successfully landed at EDFE Frankfurt-Egelsbach Airport, achieving a score of 80.7%. The final approach was conducted from the east, heading 263.0° at 2 nautical miles and 1,806 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot demonstrated good control and precision during the approach, as evident from the good threshold height and threshold speed of 91 knots.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft performed well, with a touchdown distance of 84 meters and a touchdown speed of 90 knots, both of which were considered good. However, the touchdown rate of -250 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, indicating that the pilot could have managed the descent more smoothly. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.3 meters from the centerline, which may have contributed to the subsequent rollout issues.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 5°C and winds of 9 knots at 29°. The crosswind component was 7 knots, while the tailwind component was 5 knots. These conditions presented a moderate challenge for the pilot, but they were still able to maintain control and execute a safe landing.
The total landing distance of 1,011 meters was 87% of the available runway length, which is a relatively high percentage. This suggests that the pilot may have been able to stop the aircraft more quickly, but instead chose to use a larger portion of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was excessively misaligned by 120.0 meters from the centerline, which is a significant deviation and may have been caused by the slight misalignment during touchdown.
Overall, while the pilot demonstrated good control and precision during the approach and touchdown, there were some areas for improvement, particularly in terms of touchdown rate and rollout alignment. With further practice and refinement, the pilot should be able to achieve a higher score and execute a more precise and controlled landing.
