Hold the approach angle
Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 1,130 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 1,130 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 174 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with taxiing from the parking to the runway at Albany Airport, taking approximately 1 minute and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Vision Jet, then departed from runway 14, with a takeoff distance of 373 meters, which accounted for 21% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 98 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 28 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 21 knots at 88 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 15 knots and a headwind of 15 knots. The aircraft then took off and began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile north of McKail, in the State of Western Australia, Australia. The climb was from an altitude of 1,229 feet above sea level to 20,297 feet above sea level, an increase of 19,067 feet, in 15 minutes, covering a distance of 51 nautical miles.
Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, starting 6 miles southwest of Tambellup, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then began another climb, this time from 20,730 feet above sea level to 21,984 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,254 feet, in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 9 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 8 miles northwest of Tambellup, and lasted for 20 minutes, covering 94 nautical miles.
As the aircraft continued its journey, it began its descent, starting 7 miles southwest of Brookton, and descended from 21,486 feet above sea level to 1,986 feet above sea level, a decrease of 19,500 feet, in 14 minutes, covering a distance of 58 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting overhead Orelia, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering 5 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 06L at Perth Jandakot Airport was from the southwest, heading 56.0 degrees, at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,486 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 06L, which had a length of 1,130 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed of 76 knots was well below the target, requiring the pilot to be cautious not to stall.
The touchdown distance was good at 173 meters, and the touchdown speed of 73 knots was also good. The touchdown rate was smooth at -115 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.1 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 44 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 12 knots at 40 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 12 knots.
The total landing distance was 300 meters, which accounted for 27% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The aircraft then taxied to the parking from the runway, taking less than 1 minute and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 223 nautical miles, taking 61 minutes, and the aircraft used 204 kilograms of fuel.
The Vision Jet aircraft successfully landed at YPJT Perth Jandakot Airport, achieving a high score of 96.8%. The final approach to runway 06L was conducted from the south-west, with a heading of 56.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,486 feet above ground level.
The landing was executed smoothly, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 76 knots, which was well below the target speed. However, the pilot was advised to exercise caution to avoid stalling the aircraft. The touchdown distance was good, measuring 173 meters, and the touchdown speed was also within acceptable limits at 73 knots.
The touchdown rate was smooth, with a descent rate of -115 feet per minute. Although the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.1 meters from the centreline, the overall landing performance was impressive. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were hot, with a temperature of 44°C, and a moderate wind blowing at 12 knots from a direction of 40°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the headwind component was 12 knots.
The total landing distance was 300 meters, which accounted for only 27% of the runway length. This indicates that the aircraft was able to land and stop within a relatively short distance. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, demonstrating the pilot's skill and control during the landing phase. Overall, the Vision Jet aircraft performed well during the landing at YPJT Perth Jandakot Airport, achieving a high score and showcasing its capabilities.
