Overhead Yde, a small town in the Dutch province of Drenthe, a DA40-NG aircraft initiated its enroute level cruise phase, marking the beginning of a short flight. This phase lasted a mere 3 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The brief cruise phase was a precursor to the aircraft's descent towards its destination, Groningen Airport Eelde.
As the aircraft began its final approach to runway 05 at EHGG, it was heading southwest at a bearing of 52.0°, with a height of 137 feet above ground level (agl) and a distance of 0 nautical miles from the runway threshold. The landing was executed with a threshold speed slightly below the target of 59 knots, but the touchdown distance of 326 meters was well within acceptable limits. The touchdown speed of 54 knots and the rate of descent of -156 feet per minute were also satisfactory. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 5 meters.
The landing was completed on the 2,493-meter-long runway 05, with a total landing distance of 524 meters, accounting for 21% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was excellent, indicating a smooth and controlled deceleration of the aircraft. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 15°C, with a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 270°, resulting in a negligible crosswind and tailwind component. The short flight, which covered a total distance of 3 nautical miles, utilized no fuel, indicating a highly efficient operation.
