Arrival
The flight began with an enroute climb from a starting point 1 mile northwest of OMF1 Yas Island Abu Dhabi. The aircraft, a DA40-NG, ascended from an initial altitude of 1,500 feet above sea level to 1,512 feet, a mere 12-foot increase, within less than a minute and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
As the flight progressed, the aircraft began its final approach to runway 13L at OMAA Zayed International Airport, coming in from the northwest at a heading of 107.0 degrees and at an altitude of 1,438 feet above ground level. The aircraft was approximately 3 nautical miles away from the runway at this point.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 13L, which has a length of 4,100 meters. The threshold height was slightly above the target, while the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 66 knots. The touchdown distance was good, measuring 381 meters, and the touchdown speed was also good at 53 knots. The touchdown rate was excellent, with a rate of -83 feet per minute.
However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline, deviating by 9.9 meters. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 270 degrees. The crosswind was minimal at 1 knot, while the tailwind was 2 knots.
Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area from the runway, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile within less than a minute. The total flight distance was 3 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 4 minutes. Notably, the aircraft used no fuel during the flight.

The DA40-NG aircraft successfully landed on runway 13L at OMAA Zayed International Airport, achieving a score of 92.0%. The final approach was initiated from the northwest, heading 107.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,438 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down at a speed of 53 knots, which was within the acceptable range. The touchdown distance of 381 meters was also considered good. However, the threshold height at 60 feet agl was slightly above the target, and the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 66 knots.
The landing performance was further enhanced by an excellent touchdown rate of -83 feet per minute (fpm). Nevertheless, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 9.9 meters from the centreline, indicating a slight deviation from the ideal landing spot.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 15°C, with a wind speed of 2 knots at 270°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the tailwind component was 2 knots. These conditions did not significantly impact the landing performance.
The total landing distance of 606 meters was within 15% of the runway length, which is a reasonable margin. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 10.0 meters from the centreline, indicating a minor deviation from the ideal path.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score of 92.0%. While there were some minor deviations from the ideal landing performance, the pilot's skills and the aircraft's capabilities were sufficient to ensure a safe and controlled landing.
