Departure
Arrival
The flight began with a departure roll from runway 23 at EHLE Lelystad Airport, where the aircraft, a DA40-XLS, accelerated down the 352-meter runway, using only 28% of its length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 68 knots, marking the start of the takeoff phase. The local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 16°C and a gentle wind blowing at 2 knots from a direction of 270°, resulting in a negligible crosswind and a slight headwind.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it transitioned into an enroute climb, ascending from an initial altitude of 250 feet above sea level to a height of 81 feet above sea level, an increase of 169 feet over a distance of less than 1 nautical mile, all within a span of 2 minutes. This climb phase was initiated once the aircraft had cleared the EHLE Lelystad Airport area.
The final approach to runway 23 at EHLE Lelystad Airport was conducted from a northeasterly heading of 227.0°, with the aircraft at an altitude of 91 feet above ground level and a distance of 0 nautical miles from the runway threshold. The approach was characterized by a temperature of 20°C and a wind blowing at 3 knots from a direction of 226°, resulting in a slight headwind and no crosswind.
The landing itself was smooth, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 52 knots and a touchdown distance of 131 meters, which was considered good. The touchdown rate was also smooth, at -109 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 3.3 meters. The total landing distance was 328 meters, which was 26% of the runway length.
Following the landing, the aircraft rolled out of the runway, maintaining a very good alignment. The total flight distance was a mere 1 nautical mile, and the flight duration was 2 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 40 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

The DA40-XLS aircraft successfully landed at EHLE Lelystad Airport, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its pilot. The final approach was conducted from the north-east, aligning with the runway 23 at a heading of 227.0°. At 0 nm and 91 ft above ground level (agl), the aircraft was in a stable position, ready to initiate the landing sequence.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft performed well, with a threshold speed slightly below the target at 60 kt. This minor deviation did not significantly impact the overall landing performance. The touchdown distance of 131 m was within acceptable limits, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown speed of 52 kt was also satisfactory, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed during the landing phase.
The touchdown rate was particularly noteworthy, with a smooth descent rate of -109 fpm. This suggests that the pilot maintained a consistent and controlled approach, avoiding any sudden or excessive deceleration. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.3 m from the centreline, which is a minor deviation that can be easily corrected.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 20 °C and a gentle wind of 3 kt at 226°. The crosswind component was negligible, while the headwind component was 3 kt, which had a minimal impact on the landing performance. The total landing distance of 328 m was 26% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll.
The runway rollout alignment was excellent, with the aircraft maintaining a stable and aligned position throughout the rollout phase. This suggests that the pilot had complete control of the aircraft during the landing sequence, and was able to smoothly transition from the landing phase to the rollout phase. Overall, the DA40-XLS aircraft's landing performance was impressive, demonstrating a high level of skill and proficiency in its pilot.
