What went well

Touched down at -60 fpm — a soft arrival
Touchdown 169 m in — inside the full-score zone
Straight touchdown — 1.10 m off the centreline, no bounce

What held you back

Pattern Base Leg — Heading 13.4 ° at 44 %, −1.20 points
Arrival Landing — Threshold speed was slightly below target at 78 kt at 92 %, −0.34 points
Pattern Downwind — Average altitude 1,124 ft agl at 83 %, −0.24 points

Next time

Arrival

Add power on short final to hold 86 kt at the threshold rather than letting speed decay.

What happened: You crossed the threshold at 78 kt against a target of 86 kt, below reference speed.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator, hold 86 kt down to the threshold.

See Arrival Landing

Bank angle in the pattern is conventionally kept to 20 to 30 degrees, and the base-to-final turn is where that convention earns its keep. Stall speed rises with bank because the wing must produce more lift in a turn. Roughly 7 per cent higher at 30 degrees, about 19 per cent at 45, and around 40 per cent at 60. At 65 kt on base you don't have much margin to spend steepening a turn to salvage an overshoot.

Landing Summary

The aircraft touched down on runway 23 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde, a 2,490 m runway, after a good threshold height and a threshold speed that was slightly below target at 78 kt. The flare placed the main wheels at the intended aim point, with a touchdown distance of 166 m considered good and a touchdown speed of 70 kt also rated good; the touchdown rate was firm at minus 335 fpm and runway touchdown alignment was perfect.

Overall, the landing scored 87.1 % and was solid; refining the approach to achieve the exact target threshold speed and moderating the flare to reduce the firm touchdown rate will further improve consistency.
