Departing from the Cotswold Airport in Gloucestershire, England, the DA40-NG aircraft initiated its enroute climb phase overhead the airport, rising from an initial altitude of 448 ft above sea level to 1,318 ft asl. This ascent of 871 ft was achieved within a minute, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft's climb performance was notable, demonstrating a high rate of ascent.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft transitioned into a level cruise phase, maintaining a steady altitude as it traversed 4 nautical miles in 3 minutes. This phase of the flight allowed the aircraft to reach a stable cruising altitude, where it could efficiently cover the remaining distance to its destination. The aircraft's cruise performance was characterized by a stable and efficient flight path.
As the DA40-NG aircraft approached the Cotswold Airport for landing, it initiated its final approach to runway 26 from the east. The aircraft maintained a heading of 260.0° and descended to an altitude of 215 ft above ground level, before touching down on the runway. The landing was characterized by a good threshold height, threshold speed of 68 kt, and touchdown speed of 56 kt. The aircraft's touchdown distance of 160 m was also within acceptable limits, and the touchdown rate of -13 fpm was perfect. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15 °C and a light wind of 1 kt from 270°, contributed to a smooth and controlled landing. The total landing distance of 322 m was 20% of the runway length, and the runway rollout alignment was perfect. The aircraft's fuel consumption for the entire flight was minimal, with no fuel used during the 5-minute flight that covered a total distance of 6 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 26 at EGBP Cotswold Airport from the east was executed with precision, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 260.0° at 0 nm and 215 ft above ground level. The approach quality was excellent, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 68 kt, well within the acceptable range. As the aircraft touched down on the runway, the touchdown distance of 160 m was satisfactory, and the touchdown speed of 56 kt was also within the desired parameters. Notably, the touchdown rate of -13 fpm was perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, with the aircraft centered on the runway centerline. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15 °C and a wind of 1 kt at 270°, contributed to a relatively calm and stable environment. The crosswind component was negligible, and the headwind of 1 kt had a minimal impact on the landing. As a result, the total landing distance of 322 m, which accounted for only 20% of the runway length, was impressive.
The rollout phase was equally impressive, with the aircraft maintaining perfect alignment with the runway centerline. The pilot's skill and control were evident in the smooth and controlled deceleration, which allowed the aircraft to come to a stop within a short distance. Overall, the landing was scored at 98.9%, a testament to the pilot's expertise and the aircraft's performance.
