Departure
Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.
What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 3°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
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.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 1,000 ft gate: gear still up.
At the 500 ft gate: gear still up and off the runway's 4° glideslope.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 741 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 741 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 127 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking area to the runway, which took 7 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, an SR22, then departed from runway 08 at KBUR Hollywood Burbank Airport. The takeoff distance was 420 meters, which accounted for 24% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 85 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 24 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots at 359 degrees. The crosswind was 1 knot, and the headwind was 0 knots. After departing from Burbank, the aircraft began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile northwest of the airport. It climbed from an altitude of 1,677 feet above sea level to 3,666 feet, an increase of 1,988 feet, in 2 minutes and covering a distance of 3 nautical miles.
The enroute descent started 1 mile east of Burbank, where the aircraft descended from 3,687 feet to 2,671 feet, a decrease of 1,015 feet, in 3 minutes and covering a distance of 8 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, starting overhead Pasadena, which lasted for 9 minutes and covered a distance of 18 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its final approach to runway 06 at KFUL Fullerton Municipal Airport from the southwest. The aircraft was heading at 52.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,149 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown speed of 65 knots and a touchdown distance of 124 meters. The touchdown rate was perfect at -32 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was also perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 25 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots at 359 degrees, with a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 0 knots. The total landing distance was 364 meters, which accounted for 49% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good, and the aircraft was able to taxi to the parking area in less than 1 minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 35 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 21 minutes, with a fuel consumption of 16 kilograms.
The SR22 aircraft successfully landed at KFUL Fullerton Municipal Airport, achieving a high score of 95.5%. The final approach to runway 06 was conducted from the southwest, with a heading of 52.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,149 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 65 kt, which was slightly below the target threshold speed of 70 kt. However, this was not a significant deviation, and the touchdown distance of 124 meters was considered good. The touchdown rate of -32 feet per minute (fpm) was also perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 25°C and a wind speed of 2 kt from a direction of 359°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind component of 1 kt and a headwind of 0 kt. The runway length at KFUL Fullerton Municipal Airport is 741 meters, which provided a sufficient margin for the aircraft to land safely.
The total landing distance of 364 meters was 49% of the runway length, indicating a good utilization of the available runway space. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, suggesting that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the landing roll and was able to bring it to a stop in a straight line.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft touching down on the runway with a good speed and rate, and the pilot maintaining control during the rollout. The favorable weather conditions and the aircraft's performance contributed to the successful outcome.
