The flight began with an enroute climb from Dortmund Airport, located in Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany. The aircraft, a Cessna C172, took off from an elevation of 561 feet above sea level and climbed to 1,314 feet in just one minute, covering a distance of one nautical mile. This rapid ascent allowed the aircraft to reach a significant altitude in a short period of time.
Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, where it maintained a steady altitude for two minutes while covering a distance of two nautical miles. This phase of the flight was initiated one mile west of Holzwickede, another location in Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent from an altitude of 1,326 feet above sea level to 814 feet. This descent took two minutes to complete, covering a distance of less than one nautical mile. The aircraft's rate of descent was smooth, and it maintained control throughout the process.
The final approach to runway 24 at Dortmund Airport was initiated from the north-east, with the aircraft heading 242.0 degrees at an altitude of 402 feet above ground level and a distance of one nautical mile from the runway. The aircraft's speed was well above the target threshold speed, which was likely due to the favorable wind conditions.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway at a distance of 305 meters, which was considered good. The touchdown speed was 48 knots, and the rate of descent was smooth at -125 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 6.3 meters.
The local weather conditions at the time of the flight were characterized by a temperature of 12 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 6 knots from 230 degrees. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 6 knots. The aircraft's fuel consumption for the entire flight was 2 kilograms, and the total distance traveled was 5 nautical miles, which was completed in 5 minutes.

The Cessna C172 aircraft successfully landed at EDLW Dortmund Airport, achieving a high score of 98.9%. The final approach was conducted from the north-east, aligning with the heading of 242.0° at a distance of 1 nautical mile and an altitude of 402 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing on runway 24, the aircraft demonstrated good control and precision. The threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed was well above the target, indicating a safe and controlled approach. The touchdown distance of 305 meters was also within acceptable limits, showcasing the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's descent and speed.
The touchdown speed of 48 knots was good, indicating a smooth and controlled landing. The touchdown rate of -125 feet per minute (fpm) was also smooth, suggesting that the pilot had effectively managed the aircraft's descent and speed to achieve a gentle touchdown.
However, there was a slight deviation in the runway touchdown position, with the aircraft landing 6.3 meters off-centerline. This minor misalignment may be attributed to factors such as wind or pilot error, but it did not significantly impact the overall safety or quality of the landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 12°C and a gentle wind of 6 knots at 230°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 6 knots, which likely contributed to the smooth and controlled landing.
Overall, the Cessna C172 aircraft demonstrated excellent landing skills and control, achieving a high score of 98.9% and showcasing the pilot's ability to navigate challenging weather conditions and execute a safe and controlled landing.
