The flight began with a departure roll from runway 04 at LFLJ Courchevel Altiport, where the aircraft, a DR40, took off with a takeoff distance of 477 meters, which accounted for 87% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 71 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of -3 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 0 knots at 0 degrees.
As the aircraft climbed en route, it started overhead Courchevel, a location in the Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes region of France. The climb began at an altitude of 6,114 feet above sea level and gradually increased to 6,078 feet, a rise of 36 feet over a period of 2 minutes, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
Upon approaching the destination, the aircraft landed on runway 22 at LFLJ Courchevel Altiport, which had a length of 545 meters. The threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was excessively high at 63 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 92 meters, and the touchdown speed of 59 knots was a little fast. However, the touchdown rate was perfect at 8 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 13.9 meters, and the total landing distance was 144 meters, accounting for 26% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned from the centreline by 14.4 meters. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area from the runway, taking 3 minutes and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 1 nautical mile, and the flight duration was 5 minutes, during which the aircraft used 1 kilogram of fuel. Overall, the flight was characterized by a smooth takeoff, a steady climb, and a controlled landing, with some minor deviations from the ideal alignment.

The aircraft, DR40, successfully landed on runway 22 at LFLJ Courchevel Altiport, a challenging alpine airport with a short runway length of 545 meters. The pilot demonstrated good control during the landing, with a touchdown distance of 92 meters, which is well within the acceptable range. However, the touchdown speed of 59 knots was slightly higher than ideal, indicating that the pilot may have been able to flare the aircraft more effectively to achieve a smoother touchdown.
One area of concern was the threshold speed, which was excessively high at 63 knots. This suggests that the pilot may have been too aggressive in their approach, potentially leading to a higher-than-necessary touchdown speed. Nevertheless, the touchdown rate of 8 feet per minute was perfect, indicating that the pilot was able to control the aircraft's descent effectively.
The landing was also affected by the runway's alignment, as the pilot misaligned the aircraft by 13.9 meters from the centerline during touchdown. This was also reflected in the runway rollout alignment, which was slightly misaligned by 14.4 meters from the centerline. While these misalignments may not have had a significant impact on the safety of the landing, they do indicate that the pilot may need to work on their alignment skills.
The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 2 degrees Celsius and no wind. This made the landing even more challenging, as the pilot had to contend with the short runway length and the need to maintain control in the absence of any wind assistance. Overall, the pilot demonstrated good skills and control during the landing, but there are areas for improvement, particularly in terms of threshold speed and alignment.
