Departing from a location near Yde in the Provincie Drenthe, The Netherlands, the Grumman AA-5A Cheetah began its enroute climb, ascending from an initial altitude of 18 feet above sea level to 1,854 feet above sea level in a mere 4 minutes. This impressive climb rate of 1,836 feet per minute enabled the aircraft to cover a distance of 6 nautical miles, setting the stage for a smooth and efficient flight.
As the aircraft approached Groningen Airport Eelde, it initiated its final approach to runway 05 from the southwest, maintaining a heading of 52.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,821 feet above ground level. The aircraft's descent was characterized by a steady and controlled rate, ultimately resulting in a touchdown distance of 267 meters. The touchdown speed of 44 knots was well within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -72 feet per minute was exemplary. Although the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 4.1 meters, the overall performance of the aircraft during the landing phase was satisfactory.
The flight, which covered a total distance of 8 nautical miles, utilized a mere 2 kilograms of fuel and lasted for 6 minutes. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 270 degrees. The crosswind and tailwind components were negligible, at 1 knot each, contributing to a stable and predictable flight profile.

The final approach to runway 05 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde was conducted from the south west, aligning with the heading of 52.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,821 feet above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height allowing the pilot to maintain a stable and controlled descent. The threshold speed of 61 knots was achieved, indicating a well-executed approach.
As the aircraft touched down on the runway, the touchdown distance was good at 267 meters, and the touchdown speed of 44 knots was within the acceptable range. The touchdown rate of -72 feet per minute was excellent, demonstrating a smooth and controlled touchdown. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.1 meters from the centreline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach or a minor issue with the aircraft's directional control.
The rollout phase was uneventful, with the aircraft maintaining a stable and controlled speed. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15°C and a wind of 1 knot at 270°, contributed to a relatively calm and stable environment. The crosswind and tailwind components were minimal, at 1 knot each, which further facilitated a smooth and controlled rollout. Overall, the landing was considered satisfactory, with a score of 95.8% reflecting the minor deviation from the centreline.
