Departing from an undisclosed location, the Sting S4 initiated its enroute climb phase overhead Yde, Provincie Drenthe, Netherlands, rising from an initial altitude of 20 feet above sea level to 1,003 feet in a mere 2 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. This marked the beginning of a series of climbs and descents that would characterize the flight.
As the aircraft continued its journey, it entered the enroute level cruise phase, this time overhead Eelde, Provincie Drenthe, Netherlands, where it maintained a steady altitude for 5 minutes, covering a distance of 9 nautical miles. The flight then resumed its climb, this time from 996 feet to 2,487 feet in 2 minutes, a vertical gain of 1,491 feet, as it passed 1 mile north of Leek, Provincie Groningen, Netherlands. The enroute level cruise phase was repeated, this time lasting 2 minutes and covering 3 nautical miles, as the aircraft flew 2 miles northeast of Marum, Provincie Groningen, Netherlands.
The descent phase commenced 1 mile northwest of Marum, with the aircraft losing 2,106 feet in altitude in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 26 at EHDR Drachten Airfield was initiated from the east, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 255.0° at 2 nautical miles and 836 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown distance of 95 meters and a speed of 35 knots, both of which were within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate of -84 feet per minute was also excellent, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from 269°, contributed to a smooth and controlled landing.
