The Cessna 208B taxied to runway 23 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde and commenced the departure roll. The aircraft accelerated over a take-off distance of 1,228 m, representing 49 % of the available runway, and lifted off at 82 kt. Ambient conditions were 15 °C with a wind of 1 kt from 270°, giving a 1 kt head-wind component and a 1 kt cross-wind component.

During the approach phase the pilot entered a right-hand pattern from runway 23, covering less than 1 nm in 59 seconds. The subsequent right-hand crosswind leg was completed in 5 seconds over a distance of less than 1 nm. A downwind turn of 1 nm was executed with an angle to the runway of 0.4° (45° turn), followed by a downwind leg of less than 1 nm completed in 14 seconds. The final approach to runway 05 was flown from the southwest on a heading of 53.0°, at 1 nm and 208 ft AGL. Weather remained unchanged: 15 °C, wind 1 kt from 270°, now reported as a 1 kt tail-wind and a 1 kt cross-wind.

The aircraft touched down on runway 05, whose length is 2,493 m. The threshold height was satisfactory and the threshold speed of 50 kt was well below the target. Touchdown occurred 117 m down the runway at 48 kt with a vertical speed of minus 97 fpm, and the point of contact was offset 4.1 m to the right of the centreline. The total landing distance recorded was 266 m, equivalent to 11 % of the runway length, and the rollout alignment was judged very good.

Rollout continued smoothly, with the aircraft remaining well aligned on the centreline until the end of the ground run.

In total the flight covered 4 nm, required 3 (units as recorded) and consumed 10 kg of fuel.
