The flight began with a departure roll from runway 21L at EDCM Kamenz Airfield, where the DA40-XLS aircraft took off with a takeoff distance of 259 meters, which accounted for 24% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 61 knots. At the time of takeoff, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 270 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 1 knot.

After taking off, the aircraft entered a right-hand pattern from runway 21L, completing the turn in less than 1 nautical mile in 20 seconds. The subsequent right-hand pattern crosswind turn was completed in 19 seconds, demonstrating the aircraft's agility and responsiveness. The pilot then initiated a pattern downwind turn, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile at an angle of 52.9 degrees to the runway. The downwind leg itself was 2 nautical miles long and took 59 seconds to complete.

As the aircraft approached the base leg, the pilot initiated a turn, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile at an angle of 43.0 degrees to the runway. The base leg itself was less than 1 nautical mile long and took 12 seconds to complete. The final turn was initiated, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 27 seconds.

The final approach to runway 21L was made from the north-east, with the aircraft heading 213.0 degrees at an altitude of 132 feet above ground level (agl) and a distance of 0 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was executed with a threshold speed that was slightly below the target speed of 60 knots, but still resulted in a good touchdown distance of 161 meters. The touchdown speed was 50 knots, which was considered good, and the touchdown rate was perfect at -45 feet per minute (fpm). The runway touchdown alignment was also perfect.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were the same as those at takeoff, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 270 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 1 knot. The total flight distance was 5 nautical miles, which was completed in 4 minutes, and the aircraft used 2 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 21L at EDCM Kamenz Airfield in the DA40-XLS

Landing Score 99.91 %

Landing Summary

The DA40-XLS aircraft successfully landed at EDCM Kamenz Airfield, achieving a score of 99.9%. The final approach was conducted from the north-east, aligning with the runway 21L at a heading of 213.0°. At the point of initiation, the aircraft was at 0 nm and 132 ft above ground level (agl).

The landing was executed on runway 21L, which has a length of 1,099 meters. The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 60 knots, which may have been due to the aircraft's descent rate or the pilot's decision to flare earlier than expected.

The touchdown distance of 161 meters was considered good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain a stable approach and touchdown. The touchdown speed of 50 knots was also reported as good, suggesting that the aircraft was able to slow down smoothly and maintain control during the landing. The touchdown rate of -45 feet per minute (fpm) was perfect, indicating that the aircraft touched down smoothly and without any excessive deceleration.

The runway touchdown alignment was also reported as perfect, indicating that the aircraft was aligned with the centerline of the runway at the point of touchdown. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 2 knots from 270°. The crosswind component was 2 knots, while the headwind component was 1 knot. These conditions were relatively calm and did not pose any significant challenges for the landing. Overall, the landing was executed smoothly and safely, with the aircraft achieving a high score of 99.9%.
