Flight Score
Departure
Reduce climb power to bring speed back to 179 kt and hold it there.
What happened: Climb speed was 39 kt fast at 218 kt during the climb.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 179 kt in the climb
Arrival
Add power earlier on final to hold VREF of 146 kt by the gates rather than let speed decay.
What happened: The approach was flown too slow through the stabilisation gates, crossing the threshold at 139 kt against a VREF of 146 kt.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator against 146 kt from the first stabilisation gate onward.
See Arrival Approach
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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
At the 1,000 ft gate: speed 6 kt SLOW on the reference speed of 146 kt.
At the 500 ft gate: speed 6 kt SLOW on the reference speed of 146 kt.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 2,794 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,794 m of the 3,480 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 750 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Boeing 737-800 taxied from its parking position to runway 24R at LEPA Palma de Mallorca Airport, a movement that required 14 minutes and covered 3 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 24R, the aircraft accelerated through a takeoff distance of 1,297 m, representing 40 % of the runway, and lifted off at 163 kt. Ambient conditions were a temperature of 32 °C with a wind of 9 kt from 250°, including a 2 kt cross-wind component and a 9 kt head-wind.
Climb commenced 2 mi south-east of Palma, with the airplane climbing from 1,003 ft asl to 18,772 ft asl-a gain of 17,769 ft-over 7 minutes while traversing 36 nm.
The first cruise segment began 14 mi north-west of Banyalbufar and lasted 2 minutes, during which the aircraft covered 10 nm at level flight.
Descent was initiated 24 mi north-west of Banyalbufar, descending from 18,768 ft asl to 2,348 ft asl, a loss of 16,419 ft, in 18 minutes and over a distance of 86 nm.
A second cruise phase started 5 mi south-east of el Besos i el Maresme, lasting 2 minutes and covering 8 nm before the final approach.
The final approach to runway 24R at LEBL Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport was flown from the north-east on a heading of 245.0°, intercepting the approach at 4 nm and 1,313 ft agl. Weather at the destination was 26 °C with a wind of 7 kt from 230°, a 2 kt cross-wind and a 7 kt head-wind.
Landing was executed on runway 24R, whose length is 3,480 m; the threshold height of 81 ft agl was above the target, while the threshold speed was 140 kt. Touchdown occurred 318 m beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 133 kt, with a smooth vertical rate of minus 119 fpm and perfect alignment.
Rollout continued for a total landing distance of 2,697 m, representing 78 % of the runway, and the aircraft maintained perfect runway-rollout alignment.
Overall, the flight covered 150 nm, taking 43, and consumed 1,738 kg of fuel.
The Vision Jet has successfully landed at LEPA Palma de Mallorca Airport, achieving a remarkable score of 99.5%. The aircraft's final approach to runway 06L was conducted from the southwest, heading 59.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,274 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed, coming in at 83 knots. This may be attributed to the aircraft's high approach speed, which can be influenced by various factors such as air density, aircraft weight, and pilot technique.
The touchdown distance of 1,526 feet was within acceptable limits, demonstrating the pilot's ability to control the aircraft's descent and maintain a stable approach. However, the touchdown speed of 73 knots was a little fast, indicating that the pilot may have been able to flare the aircraft more effectively to achieve a smoother touchdown.
The touchdown rate of -39 feet per minute (fpm) was perfect, indicating a controlled and stable descent. The runway touchdown alignment was also perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain a stable and aligned approach.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 73°F and a wind speed of 10 knots at 70°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, while the headwind component was 9 knots, which may have contributed to the slightly high threshold speed.
The total landing distance of 2,353 feet was 22% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
Overall, the Vision Jet's landing at LEPA Palma de Mallorca Airport was a success, with the pilot demonstrating excellent control and technique throughout the approach and landing phases.
