Flight Score
Departure
On the roll, make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline within 19 m.
What happened: The takeoff roll drifted off the centreline by 19 m, and excess bank then carried through all three climb segments. A drifted roll like this usually leads into wandering bank angle through the climb.
Watch for: Watch the heading indicator and runway centreline during the roll, and the attitude indicator for wings level through the climb.

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.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 1,000 ft gate: sink rate above what the glideslope needed.
At the 500 ft gate: sink rate above what the glideslope needed and off the centreline.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,651 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 178 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 to the runway, which took 8 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Piper PA-24-250 Comanche, then departed from runway 35L at LFLL Lyon Saint-Exupéry Airport. The takeoff distance was 188 meters, which is 5% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 72 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 24°C and a wind speed of 18 knots at 0°. The crosswind was 2 knots, while the headwind was 18 knots. The aircraft climbed to an altitude of 5,682 feet above sea level (asl) from an initial altitude of 1,765 ft asl, covering a distance of 8 nautical miles in 4 minutes.
As the aircraft continued its journey, it began its descent from 5,682 ft asl to 4,542 ft asl, a decrease of 1,140 feet, in 3 minutes and covering 8 nautical miles. The descent started overhead Leyrieu, a town in the Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes region of France. The aircraft then leveled off and entered a cruise phase, which lasted 6 minutes and covered 12 nautical miles.
The cruise phase started overhead Villebois, another town in the Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes region. The aircraft then began its descent again, this time from 4,554 ft asl to 2,967 ft asl, a decrease of 1,587 feet, in 3 minutes and covering 7 nautical miles. The descent started overhead Ceyzerieu, a town in the Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes region.
The aircraft then entered another cruise phase, which lasted 2 minutes and covered 4 nautical miles. This phase started 1 mile northwest of Brison-Saint-Innocent, a town in the Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes region. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 18 at LFLB Chambéry Savoie Mont Blanc Airport, which is located to the north of the airport.
The final approach was made at a heading of 178.0°, 3 nautical miles from the runway, and at an altitude of 1,777 feet above ground level (agl). The landing was made on runway 18, which has a length of 1,651 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 67 knots.
The touchdown distance was 177 meters, and the touchdown speed was 59 knots, both of which were good. The touchdown rate was firm at -327 feet per minute (fpm). The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the runway rollout alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 23°C and a wind speed of 2 knots at 250°.
The total landing distance was 653 meters, which is 40% of the runway length. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took less than 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 44 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 26 minutes. The aircraft used 17 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Piper PA-24-250 Comanche successfully landed at LFLB Chambéry Savoie Mont Blanc Airport, achieving a score of 96.8%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north, heading 178.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,777 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot demonstrated excellent control and precision during the final approach, resulting in a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 67 knots.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft performed well, with a touchdown distance of 177 meters and a touchdown speed of 59 knots. The touchdown rate was firm at -327 feet per minute (fpm), indicating a controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, showcasing the pilot's ability to navigate the aircraft accurately.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 23°C and a gentle wind of 2 knots from 250°. This resulted in a minimal crosswind component of 2 knots and no headwind. The total landing distance of 653 meters was 40% of the runway length, indicating a safe and controlled landing.
The rollout alignment after touchdown was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's expertise in managing the aircraft's speed and direction during the critical phase of landing. Overall, the landing was executed with precision and control, resulting in a high score of 96.8%.
