Departure
Arrival
Departing from Pfingstweide Airfield Butzbach in Hessen, Germany, the XCub initiated its enroute climb phase, ascending from an initial altitude of 1,013 feet above sea level to 2,918 feet above sea level. This climb of 1,905 feet in just 3 minutes was achieved while covering a distance of 6 nautical miles. The aircraft demonstrated a strong rate of climb, showcasing its capabilities in the initial stages of the flight.
As the XCub continued on its journey, it transitioned into the enroute level cruise phase, maintaining a steady altitude and airspeed for 6 minutes. During this period, the aircraft covered a distance of 12 nautical miles, highlighting its efficiency in terms of fuel consumption and overall performance. Following the cruise phase, the XCub began its final approach to runway 36 at Reichelsheim Airfield, navigating a heading of 342.0 degrees from a distance of 2 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,650 feet above ground level.
Upon landing on the 1,230-meter runway, the XCub demonstrated a smooth touchdown, with a speed of 48 knots and a rate of descent of -123 feet per minute. The touchdown distance of 189 meters was within acceptable limits, and the threshold speed of 58 knots was also satisfactory. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline, with an offset of 8.1 meters. The total landing distance of 321 meters accounted for 26% of the available runway length, and the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned, with an offset of 8.0 meters. The flight concluded with a total distance of 19 nautical miles and a fuel consumption of 5 kilograms.

Parking Brake On at 17:04:55 |
The final approach to runway 36 at EDFB Reichelsheim Airfield from the south was executed with good quality, with the aircraft maintaining a steady heading of 342.0° at 2 nautical miles and 1,650 feet above ground level. The pilot successfully managed the descent, achieving a good threshold height and maintaining a threshold speed of 58 knots. The touchdown distance of 189 meters was within acceptable limits, and the touchdown speed of 48 knots was also satisfactory. The touchdown rate of -123 feet per minute was smooth, indicating a well-controlled descent.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 8.1 meters, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach or a minor issue with the aircraft's directional control. However, the pilot was able to maintain control and bring the aircraft to a stop within a total distance of 321 meters, which represents 26% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating good control and braking performance.
During the rollout phase, the aircraft's alignment was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 8.0 meters, which is consistent with the initial touchdown position. Despite this, the pilot was able to bring the aircraft to a stop safely and efficiently, achieving a high overall score of 93.8%. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 16°C and a headwind of 7 knots, may have contributed to the slightly longer landing distance, but the pilot's skills and control of the aircraft were still evident throughout the landing.
