Flight Score
Work on the flare
Next time
Fly the flare as one continuous check of the sink rate from 12 ft, holding back pressure steadily rather than adjusting pitch piecemeal.
What happened: The flare drifted away from its intended profile rather than tracking it smoothly from 12 ft down to touchdown.
Watch for: Watch radio altitude and VSI through the flare, aiming to arrest the sink smoothly from 12 ft to touchdown.
Departure
Hold the nose until reaching 135 kt before rotating.
What happened: Rotation began at 123 kt, 12 kt before the 135 kt target.
Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,741 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 55 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The FSReborn Phenom 300E PRO Oberon Interior taxied from the parking area to runway 01 at MPMG Marcos A. Gelabert International Airport, a movement that required 32 minutes and covered 5 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 01, the aircraft used 490 m of runway, representing 29 % of the available length, and achieved a liftoff speed of 123 kt. Ambient conditions were a temperature of 29 °C with wind from 328° at 5 kt, including a 3 kt cross-wind component and a 4 kt head-wind component.
The climb commenced overhead Curundu (Provincia de Panama, Panama), climbing from 963 ft asl to 46 410 ft asl - an altitude gain of 45 447 ft - in 19 minutes while traversing 112 nm.
Level cruise began 20 miles north-east of Achutupo (Guna Yala, Panama) and continued for 25 minutes, during which the aircraft covered 371 nm.
Descent started 25 miles north-west of SKPB Puerto Bolívar Airport Portete (Departamento de La Guajira, Colombia), descending from 46 408 ft asl to 1 268 ft asl - a loss of 45 141 ft - over 24 minutes and a distance of 138 nm.
The final approach to runway 11 at TNCA Queen Beatrix International Airport was flown from the west on a heading of 104.0°, intercepting the approach at 4 nm and 1 224 ft agl.
Landing on runway 11, which is 2 741 m long, was executed with a threshold speed of 100 kt. Touchdown occurred 54 m beyond the threshold at 98 kt, with a vertical speed of minus 505 fpm. The total landing distance measured 445 m, equivalent to 16 % of the runway, and the alignment on touchdown was very good.
Runway rollout proceeded with very good alignment, completing the landing phase without deviation.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in less than 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 631 nm, took 79 minutes, and consumed 739 kg of fuel.
The FSReborn Phenom 300E PRO Oberon approached runway 11 at TNCA Queen Beatrix International Airport from the west on a heading of 104.0° at 4 nm and 1,224 ft agl. The final approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits. Local weather was 31 °C with wind 21 kt from 89°, giving a 5 kt cross-component and a 21 kt headwind.
Touchdown occurred on runway 11, whose length is 2,741 m and whose threshold speed was 100 kt. The aircraft touched down 54 m from the threshold at 98 kt, with a very hard touchdown rate of minus 505 fpm. Runway touchdown alignment was very good and the threshold height was reported as good.
The total landing distance was 445 m, representing 16 % of the runway, and rollout alignment was very good.
To refine the performance, focus on moderating the flare to reduce the hard touchdown rate while preserving the excellent alignment and speed control already demonstrated.
