The flight in the M500 departed from Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport (KOPF) on runway 30. The takeoff roll was 1,263 meters, covering 69% of the runway, with a liftoff speed of 111 knots. The local weather at departure was 27°C with a 7 knot wind coming from 300°, resulting in a headwind of 7 knots and no crosswind.

The enroute climb started over KOPF and lasted 4 minutes, climbing from 57 feet above sea level to 2,196 feet, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles. The climb was smooth and steady, with an increase in altitude of 2,138 feet.

The level cruise portion of the flight began over Hialeah Gardens and lasted 34 minutes, covering a distance of 30 nautical miles. The aircraft maintained a stable flight path during this segment of the journey.

The final approach to runway 23 at Ocean Reef Club Airport (07FA) was initiated from the northeast, with a heading of 222.0° at 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 928 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 23 was successful, with good threshold height and alignment. However, the threshold speed was noted to be excessively high at 121 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 147 meters, but the touchdown speed of 115 knots was considered excessively fast. Despite this, the touchdown rate was good at -158 feet per minute. The weather at the destination was 26°C with a 4 knot wind coming from 97°, resulting in a 3 knot crosswind and a 2 knot tailwind.

The total landing distance was 879 meters, covering 72% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment after landing was very good. The total flight distance for the journey was 38 nautical miles, which took 42 minutes to complete. The aircraft used 91 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

71.36 %

Landing on runway 23 at 07FA Ocean Reef Club Airport in the M500

Landing Score 89.92 %

Landing Summary

Overall, the aircraft landing score of 89.9% indicates a strong performance with areas of improvement for future flights. The Approach Phase stood out for its excellent glideslope alignment, showing precision and skill in maintaining the proper descent path towards the runway. However, the threshold speed reaching 121 knots was slightly higher than ideal, indicating the need for better speed control during this phase.

Moving on to the Landing Phase, while the threshold height was good and the landing flare was executed perfectly, the lack of bank angle stability during landing suggests room for improvement in maintaining a steady and controlled approach angle. This is an important aspect of landing procedures that can greatly impact the smoothness and safety of the touchdown.

In the Touchdown Phase, the aircraft demonstrated a good touchdown rate at -158 ft/m, indicating a relatively gentle descent onto the runway. However, the touchdown speed of 115 knots was considered excessively fast, raising concerns about the potential for harder landings and increased wear on the aircraft components. Additionally, while the touchdown distance of 147 meters was within acceptable limits, there could be opportunities to improve efficiency and precision in this aspect.

It is worth noting that the runway touchdown alignment was perfect, reflecting the pilot's ability to accurately center the aircraft along the runway axis. This is a critical skill that contributes to safe and effective landings.

In conclusion, while the overall landing score is commendable, there are specific areas such as speed control, bank angle stability, and touchdown speed that could be addressed to further enhance landing performance. By focusing on these areas and continuing to refine landing techniques, pilots can strive for even better outcomes in future flights. Keep up the good work and stay committed to continuous improvement in your flying skills.
