Departure
Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.
What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 13°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
Below a thousand feet the aeroplane is slow, heavy and close to the ground. A steep turn loses lift, raises the stall speed and flattens the climb just when the gradient matters most. A normal turn on course is a rate one — fifteen degrees or so, twenty-five at the outside, this penalty is to acknowledge when a turn has stopped being a turn and become a manoeuvre.

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 six checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,303 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 207 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking area to the runway, which took 7 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 12 at LIPE Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport, with a takeoff distance of 871 meters, which accounted for 41% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 135 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 32 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 10 knots at 260 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 knots and a tailwind of 8 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, which started overhead LIPE Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport. The climb took 21 minutes and covered a distance of 152 nautical miles, with the aircraft ascending from 878 feet above sea level to 45,708 feet above sea level, an increase of 44,830 feet.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started overhead Sinja Gorica in Vrhnika, Slovenia. This phase lasted for 26 minutes and covered a distance of 225 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 1 mile northeast of Uherske Hradiste in the Zlinsky kraj region. The descent took 25 minutes and covered a distance of 112 nautical miles, with the aircraft descending from 45,422 feet above sea level to 2,063 feet above sea level, a decrease of 43,359 feet.
The final approach to runway 25 at EPKK Kraków John Paul II International Airport was made from the east, with a heading of 258.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,270 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 25, which had a length of 2,303 meters. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 22 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 5 knots at 230 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 4 knots.
The landing was successful, with a threshold speed of 126 knots and a touchdown distance of 208 meters, which was 49% of the runway length. The touchdown speed was 122 knots, which was slightly faster than expected, and the touchdown rate was firm at -339 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the runway rollout alignment was perfect.
The taxiing period from the runway to the parking area took 6 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 497 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 87 minutes. The aircraft used 1,087 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
Aircraft C750 successfully landed at EPKK Kraków John Paul II International Airport, achieving a high score of 97.5%. The final approach was conducted from the east, heading 258.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,270 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated good control and precision as it descended onto runway 25, which has a length of 2,303 meters.
The threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed was maintained at 126 knots, indicating a well-executed approach. The touchdown distance of 208 meters was also within acceptable limits, showcasing the pilot's ability to control the aircraft's descent. However, the touchdown speed of 122 knots was slightly faster than expected, resulting in a firm touchdown rate of -339 feet per minute (fpm). Despite this, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 22°C and a gentle wind of 5 knots from 230°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, while the headwind component was 4 knots, providing a relatively stable environment for the landing. The total landing distance of 1,129 meters was 49% of the runway length, which is a reasonable distance considering the aircraft's size and weight.
The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase, ensuring a safe and stable stop. Overall, the landing was executed well, with the pilot demonstrating good control and precision throughout the approach and touchdown phases.
