Flight Score
Departure
Raise the gear lever promptly once a positive climb is confirmed, before reaching the target retraction height.
What happened: Gear retraction was delayed, with the gear not coming up until 0 ft agl.
Watch for: Landing gear: up by the normal retraction gate
Arrival
Use small rudder inputs against a point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline during rollout.
What happened: During the rollout the aircraft drifted 6.1 m off the centreline.
Watch for: Runway centreline marks: hold the aircraft tracking straight down the centreline through rollout
See Arrival Rollout
Make sure that you retract the landing gear once you have a positive rate of climb and there is no usable runway left to land back on.

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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,972 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 352 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Heydar Aliyev International Airport (UBBB), the SR22 aircraft began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took approximately 8 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. Upon reaching runway 17, the aircraft initiated its departure roll, utilizing 75% of the 2,458-meter runway to achieve liftoff at a speed of 79 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 18 °C, with a gentle wind of 5 knots blowing from a direction of 340°, resulting in a 2-knot crosswind and a 4-knot tailwind.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb approximately 1 mile west of Biny Selo, a suburb of Baku City, Azerbaijan. The climb from 449 feet above sea level to 516 feet above sea level was achieved in less than 1 minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then transitioned into a level cruise, maintaining an altitude of 516 feet above sea level for 6 minutes while covering 16 nautical miles. This pattern of climb and cruise was repeated several times, with notable climbs from 962 feet to 2,511 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,549 feet in 2 minutes, and covering 3 nautical miles. The final level cruise segment lasted 59 minutes, covering a distance of 131 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached Fuzuli International Airport (UBBF), it initiated its final approach to runway 29 from the southeast, maintaining a heading of 293.0° at an altitude of 619 feet above ground level and a distance of 3 nautical miles from the runway threshold. However, the pilot decided to execute a go-around at an altitude of 613 feet above ground level. Upon re-approaching the runway, the aircraft landed safely, utilizing 36% of the 2,956-meter runway. The touchdown distance was 350 meters, and the touchdown speed was 68 knots, with a touchdown rate of -42 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the runway rollout alignment was also satisfactory. The total landing distance was 1,075 meters, and the aircraft used 51 kilograms of fuel for the entire flight, which covered a distance of 159 nautical miles and lasted 62 minutes.
The final approach to runway 29 at UBBF Fuzuli Intl from the south east was executed with precision, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 293.0° at 3 nm and 619 ft above ground level. The approach quality was excellent, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 82 kt, well within the acceptable range. As the aircraft descended onto the runway, it touched down at a distance of 350 m, with a speed of 68 kt, and a touchdown rate of -42 fpm, which was perfect.
The touchdown characteristics were impressive, with the aircraft maintaining a very good runway touchdown alignment. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 18 °C and a gentle wind of 5 kt at 340°, contributed to a smooth and stable approach. The crosswind and headwind components were minimal, at 3 kt each, which further facilitated a stable touchdown. The aircraft's ability to maintain a stable approach and touchdown in these conditions was a testament to the pilot's skill and the aircraft's handling characteristics.
The rollout phase was equally impressive, with the aircraft maintaining a very good runway rollout alignment. The total landing distance of 1,075 m, which accounted for 36% of the runway length, was well within the acceptable range. Overall, the landing was scored at 97.5%, a testament to the pilot's expertise and the aircraft's performance in the given conditions.
