The flight began with a departure roll on runway 21L at EDCM Kamenz Airfield, a small airfield located in Kamenz, Saxony, Germany. The aircraft, a DA40-XLS, accelerated down the runway and lifted off the ground at a speed of 54 knots. The takeoff distance was a relatively short 48 meters, which is only 4% of the runway's total length.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airfield, it encountered a local weather pattern characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind blowing at 2 knots from a direction of 269 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 1 knot. The pilot navigated the aircraft through this weather, climbing from an initial altitude of 594 feet above sea level to a height of 537 feet, an increase of 56 feet over a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in just 1 minute.
After completing the enroute climb, the pilot began the descent for landing, once again navigating the aircraft through the same local weather conditions. The landing was executed on runway 21L, which has a length of 1,099 meters. The pilot maintained a good threshold height and touched down at a speed of 45 knots, with a touchdown distance of 385 meters. The touchdown rate was an impressive -63 feet per minute, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
The entire flight was completed in a remarkably short distance of 1 nautical mile, taking only 2 minutes to complete. Notably, the aircraft used no fuel during the flight, suggesting that the pilot was able to optimize the flight path and minimize energy expenditure. Overall, the flight was characterized by a high degree of precision and control, with the pilot successfully navigating the aircraft through challenging weather conditions and executing a smooth and controlled landing.

The DA40-XLS aircraft successfully landed on runway 21L at EDCM Kamenz Airfield, achieving a score of 93.7%. The landing was executed with precision, taking into account the runway's length of 1,099 meters. The threshold height was favorable, allowing the pilot to maintain a safe distance from the runway's beginning.
The threshold speed of 70 knots was well-managed, indicating a smooth and controlled approach. The touchdown distance of 385 meters was also within acceptable limits, demonstrating the pilot's ability to navigate the aircraft to a safe stop. Furthermore, the touchdown speed of 45 knots was satisfactory, suggesting a gentle and controlled descent.
One of the most impressive aspects of this landing was the touchdown rate, which was an excellent -63 feet per minute (fpm). This indicates that the pilot was able to bring the aircraft down to the ground with minimal impact, reducing the risk of damage or injury. Additionally, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, suggesting that the pilot maintained a stable and consistent approach.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a gentle wind of 2 knots at 269°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, while the headwind component was even weaker at 1 knot. These conditions likely contributed to the smooth and controlled nature of the landing. Overall, the DA40-XLS aircraft's landing on runway 21L at EDCM Kamenz Airfield was a success, with the pilot demonstrating excellent skills and judgment.
