Next time

Departure

Ease the nose up sooner to lift off at 70 kt instead of letting speed build on the ground.

What happened: The aircraft lifted off at 84 kt, 14 kt above the target liftoff speed.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 70 kt at liftoff

See Departure Roll

Arrival

Add power on final to cross the threshold at 85 kt, correcting the speed before the flare begins.

What happened: The aircraft crossed the threshold at 8 kt below the 85 kt target, and the flare that followed raised the nose only 7.5° with little of the sink taken out. Shallow, underpowered approaches like this usually carry through into a firm touchdown.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 85 kt at the threshold

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

Flight narrative

The Diamond DA42 Twin Star taxied to runway 23 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde and commenced the take-off roll, covering 1,042 m which represented 42 % of the available runway. Liftoff was achieved at 84 kt. Ambient conditions were 15 °C with a wind of 2 kt from 270°, a crosswind component of 1 kt and a headwind component of 2 kt.

During climb the aircraft passed overhead Donderen in the province of Drenthe, ascending from 1,029 ft asl to 1,249 ft asl, a gain of 220 ft in less than one minute while covering less than one nautical mile.

Level cruise began again over Donderen and was maintained for three minutes, during which the aircraft travelled six nautical miles.

The descent phase started over Noordlaren in the province of Groningen, with the aircraft descending from 1,505 ft asl to 804 ft asl, a loss of 700 ft in two minutes while covering two nautical miles.

On final approach to runway 23 at EHGG, the aircraft descended from 1,025 ft agl to 35 ft agl in 107 seconds and met the stabilisation gate criteria.

Landing was executed on runway 23, whose total length is 2,490 m. The threshold speed was slightly below the target at 77 kt. Touchdown occurred 257 m down the runway at 58 kt with a firm touchdown rate of -321 fpm and very good alignment. The total landing distance measured 404 m, representing 16 % of the runway, and rollout alignment was perfect.

In total the flight covered 14 nm, took 8 (units as given) and consumed 3 kg of fuel.

Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 23 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde descended from 1,025 ft agl to 35 ft agl in 107 seconds and was scored on the stabilisation gates.

At threshold the height was good and the threshold speed was slightly below target at 77 kt, with local weather reporting a temperature of 15 °C, wind 2 kt from 270°, a 1 kt cross-wind and a 2 kt head-wind.

Touchdown occurred 257 m down the runway at a speed of 58 kt, a firm rate of minus 321 fpm, and runway touchdown alignment was very good.

The rollout covered a total landing distance of 404 m, representing 16 % of the 2,490 m runway, and runway rollout alignment was perfect.

With a score of 95.0 % the landing was strong; refining speed control to meet the exact target speed and smoothing the flare to lessen the firm touchdown rate will further optimise performance.
