The Edgley Optica aircraft departed from Birrfeld Airfield, taking off from runway 08. The takeoff distance was 560 meters, which is 72% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 68 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of 16°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from 270°.

As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb overhead Birmenstorf, a location in the Kanton Aargau region of Switzerland. The climb began at an altitude of 1,497 feet above sea level and increased to 1,831 feet in just 1 minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. This rapid ascent demonstrates the Edgley Optica's impressive climb capabilities.

Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, also starting overhead Birmenstorf. This phase lasted for 5 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 26 at Birrfeld Airfield, heading east at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 857 feet above ground level.

The landing on runway 26 was notable for several factors. The threshold speed was excessively high at 68 knots, and the touchdown speed was too fast at 58 knots. However, the touchdown distance was good at 247 meters, and the touchdown rate was good at -157 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the runway rollout alignment was perfect.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from 270°, with a headwind of 1 knot. The total landing distance was 463 meters, which is 60% of the runway length. The total flight distance was 6 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 10 minutes. The aircraft used 5 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 26 at LSZF Birrfeld Airfield in the Edgley Optica

Landing Score 91.58 %

Landing Summary

The Edgley Optica aircraft successfully landed at LSZF Birrfeld Airfield, achieving a score of 91.6%. The final approach to runway 26 was initiated from the east, heading 267.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 857 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated good control and precision during the approach, ultimately landing safely on the runway.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down at a distance of 247 meters, which was considered good. However, the touchdown speed of 58 knots was slightly too fast, indicating that the pilot may have been able to maintain a more controlled descent. The touchdown rate of -157 feet per minute (fpm) was deemed good, suggesting that the aircraft's rate of descent was well-managed.

The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a gentle headwind of 1 knot from 270°. The crosswind component was negligible, at 0 knots.

The total landing distance of 463 meters was 60% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and brought it to a stop in a safe and controlled manner. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft demonstrating good control and precision throughout the approach and landing phases.
