Hold the approach angle
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.
One stabilised approach gate: five 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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,525 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 563 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the Vision Jet taxiing from the parking area to the runway at LFSH Haguenau Airfield, a process that took 5 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 21, with a takeoff distance of 489 meters, which accounted for 71% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 88 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it encountered local weather conditions of 23°C temperature and a wind speed of 1 knot at 296 degrees. The crosswind was 1 knot, while the headwind was 0 knots. The enroute climb started overhead Kaltenhouse in Grand Est, France, where the aircraft climbed from 835 feet above sea level to 14,111 feet, an increase of 13,275 feet in 8 minutes, covering a distance of 22 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise then began overhead Enchenberg in Grand Est, France, lasting 5 minutes and covering 24 nautical miles. The aircraft then started another enroute climb 1 mile east of Zutendaal in Flanders, Belgium, where it climbed from 2,242 feet to 4,214 feet, an increase of 1,972 feet in 2 minutes, covering 3 nautical miles.
The enroute descent started 1 mile west of Zutendaal, where the aircraft descended from 4,217 feet to 1,509 feet, a decrease of 2,708 feet in 3 minutes, covering 7 nautical miles. Another enroute climb began overhead Kortessem in Flanders, Belgium, where the aircraft climbed from 1,492 feet to 2,662 feet, an increase of 1,171 feet in 2 minutes, covering 2 nautical miles.
The enroute descent then started overhead Diepenbeek in Flanders, Belgium, where the aircraft descended from 2,708 feet to 972 feet, a decrease of 1,737 feet in 2 minutes, covering 3 nautical miles. The aircraft then performed a go-around on runway 06 at EBSL Zutendaal Air Base at 652 feet above ground level.
The final approach to runway 06 at EBSL Zutendaal Air Base began from the southwest, heading 111.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 730 feet above ground level. However, another go-around was performed at 717 feet above ground level. The aircraft then landed on runway 06, which had a length of 2,525 meters. The threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was excessively high at 93 knots.
The touchdown point was 129 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 74 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown rate was smooth at -114 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 24°C temperature and a wind speed of 4 knots at 353 degrees, with a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 2 knots.
The total landing distance was 736 meters, which accounted for 29% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.2 meters from the centerline. The taxiing to the parking area from the runway took 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 74 nautical miles, taking 41 minutes, and the aircraft used 141 kilograms of fuel.
The Vision Jet aircraft successfully landed at EBSL Zutendaal Air Base, achieving a score of 92.9%. The final approach was conducted from the southwest, heading 111.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 730 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft landed on runway 06, which has a length of 2,525 meters.
The threshold height was reported as good, but the threshold speed was excessively high at 93 knots. This indicates that the pilot may have been able to improve the landing by reducing the speed before touchdown. The touchdown point was 129 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which suggests that the pilot may have been able to improve the accuracy of the landing. The touchdown speed of 74 knots was a little fast, but the touchdown rate was smooth at -114 feet per minute (fpm).
The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot maintained a stable and aligned approach to the runway. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 24°C and a wind speed of 4 knots at 353°. The crosswind was 4 knots, and the headwind was 2 knots, which suggests that the pilot had to contend with a slight crosswind component.
The total landing distance was 736 meters, which is 29% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain a stable and controlled approach to the runway. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.2 meters from the centerline, which suggests that the pilot may have been able to improve the accuracy of the rollout.
Overall, the landing was successful, but there are some areas for improvement, particularly in terms of reducing the threshold speed and improving the accuracy of the touchdown and rollout.
