This flight was conducted in a DA42 aircraft, taking off from an unspecified location and heading towards Syracuse Hancock International Airport (KSYR) in New York, United States. The enroute climb began as the aircraft flew overhead the airport, with an initial altitude of 420 feet above sea level (asl). Within less than a minute, the aircraft successfully climbed to 582 feet asl, an increase of 163 feet, while covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile (nm).

As the aircraft approached the airport, it began its final approach to runway 33 from the southeast, heading at 314.0 degrees at an altitude of 174 feet agl and a distance of 0 nm from the runway. The landing was executed on the 2,284-meter-long runway, with the threshold height at 55 feet agl being slightly above the target. The threshold speed was 86 knots, and the touchdown speed was 80 knots, both of which were considered good.

The touchdown distance was also good, measuring 331 meters. The touchdown rate was firm, at -342 feet per minute (fpm). However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline, by 9.8 meters. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 2 degrees Celsius.

Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area from the runway, taking approximately 2 minutes and covering a distance of less than 1 nm. The total flight distance was 1 nm, and the flight duration was 5 minutes. Notably, the aircraft used 3 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
