Flight Score
Departure
Apply small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline during the roll.
What happened: The aircraft tracked 13 m off the runway centreline during the ground roll, and flights with this pattern usually carry extra bank, around 8.4°, into the first climb.
Watch for: Heading indicator: wings level, tracking the runway centreline
A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

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 2,310 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 380 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport (LIEO), the Phenom 300E began its journey with a taxiing phase that lasted six minutes and covered a distance of one nautical mile. As the aircraft reached the runway, it initiated its departure roll on runway 05, utilizing 769 meters, or 31% of the runway, to achieve liftoff at a speed of 125 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 27 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 18 knots from a direction of 280 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 12 knots and a tailwind of 13 knots.
As the aircraft cleared the airport, it began its enroute climb, ascending from 1,080 feet above sea level to 41,470 feet, a vertical increase of 40,390 feet, over a distance of 90 nautical miles, within a timeframe of 15 minutes. The climb phase concluded as the aircraft reached a cruising altitude, and it continued on its journey, maintaining a level flight path for 34 minutes, covering a distance of 275 nautical miles, before initiating its enroute descent. The descent phase, which lasted 20 minutes and covered 125 nautical miles, brought the aircraft down from 41,422 feet to 3,268 feet above sea level. Following a brief level cruise phase over the Ionian Islands, the aircraft began its final approach to runway 34 at Corfu Ioannis Kapodistrias International Airport (LGKR), aligning itself with the runway from the south.
The Phenom 300E executed a successful landing on runway 34, utilizing 381 meters of the runway, or 39% of its total length, to touch down at a speed of 93 knots. The touchdown rate was an impressive -81 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, completing the journey in a total distance of 502 nautical miles, with a flight time of 83 minutes and a fuel consumption of 625 kilograms. The taxiing phase from the runway to the parking area lasted just one minute, covering a distance of less than one nautical mile.
The final approach to runway 34 at LGKR Corfu Ioannis Kapodistrias International Airport from the south was executed with precision, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 349.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,264 feet above ground level. The approach quality was excellent, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 103 kt, well within the acceptable range. As the aircraft descended onto the runway, it touched down at a speed of 93 kt, with a touchdown distance of 381 meters, which was within the expected parameters.
The touchdown characteristics were noteworthy, with a touchdown rate of -81 fpm, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, with the aircraft maintaining its centerline alignment throughout the rollout phase. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 27°C and a wind speed of 4 kt at 245°, presented a minimal challenge to the pilot, with a crosswind of 4 kt and a tailwind of 1 kt. The total landing distance of 899 meters, which accounted for 39% of the runway length, was well within the acceptable range.
The rollout phase was executed flawlessly, with the aircraft maintaining perfect centerline alignment throughout. The overall performance of the pilot and the aircraft was exceptional, with a final score of 98.7%. The landing was a testament to the pilot's skill and experience, as well as the aircraft's capabilities, and demonstrated a high level of proficiency in executing a safe and controlled landing.
