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.

From brake release to the end of the climb, against time, then the takeoff point by point.
Lifted off at 68 kt with 6.6° of pitch. Climb 3 held close to its 88 kt target, at 86 kt on average.
Two traces from brake release: the airspeed on top, and below it the pitch, which is how far the nose is above the horizon. The figure at liftoff is the pitch then. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, the part of the climb scored on holding the climb speed.
The takeoff, point by point
Side view from the start of the roll to the end of Climb 3 at 654 ft.
Reached 35 ft with 1,878 m of runway left; gear up at 86 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 760 fpm on average to 654 ft.
The takeoff from the side: the height above the runway against the distance along it. The numbers along the runway are the speeds reached at each point. Lifting off in the amber last quarter of the runway costs marks for the roll length. The gear-up ring is coloured by its mark. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, scored on its average speed against the target.
Plan view the roll down the 2,491 m runway.
Rolled from 67 m in, drifted left of the centreline, 1.9 m at the widest, and lifted off 1.5 m left. Airborne 13 % of the way down the runway, before the 75 % line.
The roll from above, with your left at the top. The line is where the wheels went, and "widest" is the furthest you drifted off the centreline. Lifting off before the amber 75 % line gets full marks for the roll length.
One stabilised approach gate: seven 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. These checks are the approach's score.
At the 500 ft gate: centreline more than 1° off.
When the approach was stable
Every check met from 1.5 nm, about 540 ft above the runway, to the threshold, after the 500 ft gate. The last to settle was the centreline.
Each line is one of the gate checks, run along the whole final rather than only at the gates: green where it would have passed, amber where it would not. The glideslope, centreline and speed lines use the bands in the charts beside this card. The sink rate is allowed what the glideslope needs at your ground speed plus 600 fpm, the wings 10° of bank, and the gear and flap are read from when you moved the levers. The bottom line is green where every check held at once, ignoring blips shorter than 0.2 nm, and the sentence above it says from where it held to the threshold. A ring is a stabilisation gate, where the checks in the table were taken.
The final from 4 nm, with the stabilisation gates on it.
Profile height against the 3° glideslope, with its 2° band in green.
Inside the glideslope band from 1.9 nm, where the final began, to the threshold, never more than 60 ft above the slope.
Your height above the runway against the distance still to go. The glideslope is the steady descent path to the aiming point, 305 m past the threshold: 3° here, which is about 320 ft for every nautical mile out, crossing the threshold at about 50 ft. The row under the distances is the height it puts you at. Inside the green band your path is drawn green; outside it, amber. A ring is a stabilisation gate: green when every check there passed, amber with the failed checks named beside it.
Plan distance off the extended centreline, your left at the top, with the 1° band. Sideways distances are drawn 3× larger than distances along the final.
Joined 319 m left of the centreline at 1.9 nm, then inside the band from 1.5 nm to the threshold.
Looking down from above, flying left to right towards the runway: up the page is left of the centreline, down is right. Sideways distances are stretched so that small drifts show, so a line that looks wild here may be only a few tens of feet. The labels are how far off you were at each distance, amber when outside the band.
Speed against the approach speed. The green band runs from 5 kt slow to 37 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 22 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.
Inside the speed band all the way, between +5 kt and +13 kt on the approach speed of 73 kt.
Your indicated airspeed down the final, against the approach speed for this aircraft at its landing weight. The band allows 5 kt slow and more on the fast side further out, closing as you get lower, because the speed is expected to come off on the way down. The figures are knots above (+) or below (−) the approach speed.
Over the threshold
Touchdown
Perfect landing flare
From 64 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 10 s, an average deceleration of 0.19 g.
Your ground speed from the moment the wheels touched until you were down to taxi speed, against the distance rolled. A steep line is hard braking, a shallow one a long, gentle roll. For scale, an airliner's lowest autobrake setting decelerates at about 0.15 g, a medium one about 0.3 g. Shown for reading; not marked.
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Began the flare at 28 ft, 5 m before the threshold; crossed the threshold at 26 ft, 24 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 253 m in, 52 m short of the ideal 305 m.
The last stretch of the approach and the touchdown, from the side. The height is stretched so that the last few feet show: 80 ft top to bottom, against 1,524 m across. The dashed line is the ideal, 50 ft over the threshold and down 305 m in. The flare ring is where you began raising the nose, and "descent slowed" is where the sink came off; the figures beside them are the sink rate, pitch and speed at that point.
Sink and pitch — through the flare, lined up with the side view.
The sink went from 540 fpm at the flare to 50 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 3.8° on the way down.
Lined up with the side view above, so a point on one sits under the same point of the other. On top, how fast you were coming down: 0 is level, and −600 is 600 ft a minute down. Below, the pitch. In a flare the nose comes up and the descent slows towards 0. The figure at the touchdown line is your touchdown rate.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,491 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 1.9 m left of the centreline, and stayed within 2.8 m of it down the rollout.
The runway from above, with your left at the top. Touching down inside the green bracket scores full marks for the distance. The shaded part is the rollout, up to where it ended.
The 253 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departure from Łódź Władysław Reymont Airport, EPLL, commenced with a smooth roll down runway 25, utilizing 335 meters, or 13% of the available runway length, to achieve liftoff at a speed of 68 knots. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15°C and a gentle headwind of 2 knots, contributed to a stable and efficient takeoff.
As the aircraft transitioned into the enroute climb phase, it began to ascend from 1,272 feet above sea level to 2,152 feet, a vertical increase of 881 feet, over a distance of 3 nautical miles, within a 2-minute period. The climb was characterized by a steady rate of ascent, with the aircraft maintaining a consistent airspeed throughout. Following the enroute climb, the aircraft initiated a controlled descent from 2,149 feet to 896 feet, a decrease of 1,252 feet, over a distance of 4 nautical miles, within a 2-minute period. The final approach to runway 25 at EPLL was executed from the east, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 252.0° at 1 nautical mile and 291 feet above ground level.
The landing phase was notable for its precision and control, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 67 knots and a distance of 219 meters, or 19% of the available runway length. The touchdown rate was an impressive -54 feet per minute, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. Following touchdown, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 1 minute. The total flight distance was 30 nautical miles, with a total fuel consumption of 9 kilograms, and a flight duration of 20 minutes.
