The flight began with a departure roll from runway 05 at Queenstown International Airport, with the DA62 aircraft taking off after a distance of 942 feet, which accounted for 16% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 88 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 64 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 6 knots from a direction of 80 degrees. This resulted in a headwind of 6 knots and no crosswind.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead the airport and involved ascending from an altitude of 1,594 feet above sea level to 2,619 feet above sea level. This increase in altitude of 1,025 feet was achieved in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles. Following this climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile.
The final approach to runway 05 at Queenstown International Airport was made from the west, with the aircraft heading in a direction of 66.0 degrees at an altitude of 636 feet above ground level and a distance of 2 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was made on the runway, which had a length of 5,812 feet, and the threshold height was good. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 90 knots.
The touchdown distance was good at 1,080 feet, but the touchdown speed of 81 knots was slightly faster than desired. The touchdown rate was good at -164 feet per minute, but the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 35 feet from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 64 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 4 knots from a direction of 79 degrees, resulting in a headwind of 4 knots and no crosswind.
The total landing distance was 4,397 feet, which accounted for 76% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 46 feet from the centreline. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area from the runway, taking 4 minutes to cover a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 8 nautical miles, and the flight used 9 pounds of fuel.

The DA62 aircraft successfully landed at Queenstown International Airport (NZQN) with a score of 92.5%. The final approach was initiated from the west, heading 66.0° at 2 nautical miles and 636 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft successfully touched down on runway 05, which has a length of 5,812 feet.
The threshold height was reported as good, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 90 knots. This indicates that the pilot may have been slightly aggressive in their approach, but it did not significantly impact the overall performance of the landing. The touchdown distance was good at 1,080 feet, which is within the expected range for a DA62 aircraft.
However, the touchdown speed was reported as fast at 81 knots, which may indicate that the pilot could have benefited from a slightly more gradual descent. The touchdown rate was good at -164 feet per minute (fpm), which suggests that the aircraft was able to absorb the impact of touchdown smoothly.
One area for improvement was the runway touchdown position, which was misaligned by 35 feet from the centreline. This may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's approach or a slight crosswind component. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 64°F and a headwind of 4 knots at 79°.
The total landing distance was 4,397 feet, which is 76% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the pilot was able to control the aircraft effectively during the approach and touchdown. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 46 feet from the centreline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's rollout or a slight crosswind component.
Overall, the landing was successful, but there are areas for improvement, particularly in terms of touchdown speed and runway alignment. With some adjustments to the approach and rollout, the pilot may be able to achieve an even higher score in the future.
