Flight Score
Departure
Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.
What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 26 ft off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Add power on short final to hold 83 kt over the threshold instead of letting speed decay.
What happened: Threshold speed was 17 kt below the 83 kt target, and the sink was arrested at 30 ft while already slow, so the aircraft settled as the speed ran out, producing a firm touchdown at 447 fpm.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 83 kt at the threshold
Twenty knots on a monitor produces the visual sensation of about ten. The advice to "taxi at a walking pace" cannot fix this, because your sense of walking pace is exactly the thing that's broken. Put the groundspeed readout in your scan and obey it for the next fifty flights, the way a student pilot leans on the airspeed indicator before learning to read attitude.

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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 9,523 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 759 ft 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, which took 6 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft then departed from runway 03 at SEGU José Joaquín de Olmedo International Airport, with a takeoff distance of 2,335 feet, which was 29% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 99 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 85 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 2 knots at 10 degrees. The crosswind was 1 knot, while the headwind was 2 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, which started overhead the airport and took it up to an altitude of 28,772 feet above sea level. This climb covered a distance of 77 nautical miles and took 24 minutes.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, which lasted for 129 minutes and covered a distance of 427 nautical miles. This cruise phase started 7 miles southeast of SEPS Amable Calle Gutierrez Airport Pasaje. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 20 miles southeast of Huarmey, Peru. This descent took the aircraft from an altitude of 28,782 feet above sea level down to 1,360 feet above sea level, covering a distance of 108 nautical miles in 26 minutes.
The final approach to runway 16L at SPJC Jorge Chavez International Airport was made from the northwest, with a heading of 154.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,283 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 16L was successful, with a touchdown distance of 754 feet and a touchdown speed of 57 knots. However, the touchdown rate was hard at -410 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 29 feet from the centreline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 75 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 6 knots at 180 degrees. The crosswind was 3 knots, while the headwind was 5 knots. The total landing distance was 932 feet, which was 10% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 29 feet from the centreline. The aircraft then taxied to the parking from the runway, which took 4 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 621 nautical miles, and the flight took 146 minutes. The aircraft used 1,353 pounds of fuel during the flight.
The Vision Jet aircraft successfully landed at SPJC Jorge Chavez International Airport, achieving a score of 94.1%. The final approach was conducted from the northwest, heading 154.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,283 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 16L, which has a length of 9,523 feet.
The threshold height was reported as good, and the threshold speed of 66 knots was well below the target speed, indicating a controlled approach. However, pilots were advised to be cautious not to stall, as the speed was relatively low. The touchdown distance of 754 feet was considered good, and the touchdown speed of 57 knots was also within acceptable limits.
Despite the successful landing, there were some areas for improvement. The touchdown rate was reported as hard, with a descent rate of -410 feet per minute (fpm). Additionally, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 29 feet from the centreline, which may have contributed to the hard touchdown rate. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 75°F and a gentle headwind of 5 knots.
The total landing distance of 932 feet was only 10% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll. However, the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 29 feet from the centreline, which may have affected the aircraft's stability during the rollout phase. Overall, the Vision Jet aircraft demonstrated a good landing performance, but there are opportunities for improvement in terms of touchdown rate and runway alignment.
