Arrival Final 1

Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 08 at EGFI Fishburn Airfield, where the DA40-XLS aircraft took off with a takeoff distance of 337 meters, which is 45% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 57 knots, indicating a smooth and controlled takeoff. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind blowing at 1 knot from a direction of 270 degrees, resulting in a slight tailwind.

As the aircraft climbed away from the airfield, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead Fishburn, a location in County Durham, England. During this phase, the aircraft climbed from an altitude of 246 meters above sea level to 241 meters above sea level, an increase of 5.5 meters in just 3 minutes, while covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. This climb profile suggests a steady and controlled ascent.

The final approach to runway 08 at EG41 Fishburn was made from the west, with the aircraft heading 100.0 degrees at an altitude of 125.3 meters above ground level and a distance of 1 nautical mile from the runway threshold. The approach was likely a visual one, given the good threshold height and the fact that the aircraft was able to maintain a steady heading.

The landing itself was smooth and controlled, with the aircraft touching down on runway 08 at EG41 Fishburn with a touchdown distance of 258 meters, which is well within the runway length of 789 meters. The touchdown speed was 56 knots, which is consistent with the threshold speed of 69 knots, indicating a good approach and landing. However, the touchdown rate of -1.0 meters per second was only fair, suggesting that the aircraft may have touched down slightly harder than intended.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were the same as those at the time of departure, with a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind blowing at 1 knot from a direction of 270 degrees, resulting in a slight tailwind. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was aligned with the runway centerline at the time of touchdown.

In summary, the flight was a smooth and controlled one, with a good takeoff, climb, approach, and landing. The aircraft used a total of 4 nautical miles of fuel, which is a relatively small amount, and consumed 2 kilograms of fuel during the flight. Overall, the flight was a successful one, with the pilot demonstrating good flying skills and a high degree of control throughout the flight.

Landing report
Landing on runway 08 at EG41 Fishburn in the Diamond DA40
Landing Score 92.59 %
Landing Summary

The DA40-XLS aircraft successfully landed on runway 08 at EG41 Fishburn, achieving a high score of 92.6%. The final approach was conducted from the west, heading 100.0° at 1 nautical mile and 125.3 meters above ground level (agl). This indicates a precise and controlled descent into the airport.

Upon landing, the aircraft demonstrated good threshold height, which is a critical aspect of a safe landing. The threshold speed of 69 knots was also within the acceptable range, indicating that the pilot had maintained a suitable airspeed during the approach. The touchdown distance of 258 meters was also good, suggesting that the pilot had managed to slow the aircraft down effectively before touching down on the runway.

However, the touchdown speed of 56 knots was slightly lower than expected, which may have resulted in a slightly longer deceleration phase after touchdown. The touchdown rate of -1.0 meters per second was fair, indicating that the pilot had not managed to slow the aircraft down as quickly as possible after touchdown. Nevertheless, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, which is a testament to the pilot's skill and control during the landing.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 16°C and a light wind of 1 knot from 270°. This minimal wind made it easier for the pilot to maintain a stable approach and landing. The crosswind component was negligible, and the tailwind of 1 knot was minimal, which further contributed to a smooth and controlled landing. Overall, the DA40-XLS aircraft performed well during the landing, and the pilot demonstrated a high level of skill and proficiency.
