This flight was conducted on a TBM 850 aircraft, beginning with a climb from an altitude of 1,309 feet above sea level, with the destination being the ELLX Luxembourg-Findel International Airport in Luxembourg, Luxembourg. The enroute climb was initiated from directly overhead the airport, reaching an altitude of 1,226 feet above sea level.
During the climb phase, which lasted 2 minutes, the aircraft increased its altitude by 83 feet and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. Following this, a final approach towards runway 06 at ELLX Luxembourg-Findel International Airport from the south west was carried out. The aircraft was at an altitude of 41 feet above ground level during this phase, heading in the direction of 66.0° and was at a distance of 0 nautical miles from the runway.
The aircraft successfully landed on runway 06 with a length of 3,989 meters, and the approach conditions were ideal, meeting the desired threshold height. Upon touchdown, the threshold speed of 74 knots was notably higher than the target rate, further indicating a successful landing. The touchdown distance covered was a mere 192 meters, while the touchdown speed remained within acceptable limits at 65 knots. What's more, the touchdown rate of -132 feet per minute was described as smooth.
Although the runway touchdown position deviated by 5.7 meters from the centreline, the overall landing distance of 459 meters occupied a fraction of the runway length, which is just 12%. As a result, the runway rollout alignment was deemed very good. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area from the runway in less than a minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile, demonstrating efficient post-flight operations.
Throughout the flight, the local weather conditions at the ELLX airport were characterized by a temperature of 22 °C, with a moderate wind blowing at 11 knots in the direction of 120°. This translated to a crosswind component of 9 knots and a headwind of 5 knots, which are both relatively minor values. Eventually, the aircraft covered a total distance of 1 nautical mile and utilized 13 kilograms of fuel over a duration of 4 minutes.

A comprehensive report on the landing of the aircraft TBM 850 at ELLX Luxembourg-Findel International Airport has been completed. The pilot's performance achieved a score of 96.8%, reflecting an exceptionally high standard of skill and judgment.
The aircraft began its final approach to runway 06 from the south-west, heading 66.0 ° at an altitude of 0 nm and 41 ft above ground level (AGL). This was an optimal starting position for a standard approach to a long runway such as runway 06 at ELLX, which stretches 3,989 m in length.
During the landing, the pilot maintained a good threshold height, indicating a well-executed approach. The touchdown speed of 74 kt was well above the target, which is crucial for controlling the aircraft's descent and ensuring a safe landing. The pilot managed the aircraft's speed effectively, achieving a touchdown speed of 65 kt that was deemed good.
The landing distance, totaling 459 m, represented only 12% of the runway length. This demonstrates the pilot's expertise in managing the aircraft's speed and altitude to achieve a precise touchdown without overrunning the runway. The touchdown rate of -132 fpm was smooth, ensuring a gentle impact on the runway.
However, there was a slight misalignment of the runway touchdown position by 5.7 m from the centreline. This is a minor shortcoming, but given the overall high standard of the pilot's performance, it does not detract significantly from their overall score.
The conditions at the time of the landing were benign, with a temperature of 22 °C and a moderate wind of 11 kt at 120 °. The resulting crosswind and headwind components of 9 kt and 5 kt, respectively, posed minimal challenges to the pilot, who continued to demonstrate skill and control throughout the approach and landing.
Overall, the pilot's performance on this landing was exceptional, and their high score reflects their expertise and ability to handle a range of flying conditions.
