Flight Score
Departure
Use smoother, smaller aileron inputs to keep the wings level and hold bank angle near wings-level during the climb.
What happened: During the climb, bank angle rose to 6°, more roll than the climb out called for.
Watch for: Attitude indicator: wings level during 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.
One stabilised approach gate: seven 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. These checks are the approach's score.
At the 500 ft gate: glideslope 6.1° against the runway's 3°, centreline 1.4° off, against a 1° limit and wings 20° of bank, against a 10° limit.
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,727 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 432 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone.
The rest of the report
Taxiing from the parking area to the runway at RKSS Gimpo International Airport took less than a minute, covering a short distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then began its departure roll on runway 32R, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 54 knots. The takeoff distance was 522 meters, which accounted for 15% of the runway length. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 28 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 8 knots from a direction of 229 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 8 knots and a headwind of 1 knot.
Following a brief enroute level cruise that lasted less than a minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile, the aircraft began its initial climb phase, ascending from 381 feet above sea level to 1,004 feet in 2 minutes, while covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. This was followed by a second level cruise phase, which lasted 3 minutes and covered 6 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered a second climb phase, ascending from 504 feet to 1,584 feet in 3 minutes, while covering 5 nautical miles. The climb rate was notable, with an increase of 1,080 feet in a relatively short period. The aircraft then began its descent phase, descending from 1,601 feet to 483 feet in 2 minutes, while covering 3 nautical miles.
Throughout the flight, the aircraft demonstrated a high degree of efficiency, covering a total distance of 17 nautical miles in 13 minutes, while consuming 10 kilograms of fuel. The flight profile was characterized by a series of short, efficient climbs and descents, which allowed the aircraft to maintain a relatively high altitude while minimizing fuel consumption. Overall, the flight was a testament to the capabilities of the Cessna Skyhawk, which is known for its agility and fuel efficiency.
The Cessna Skyhawk successfully landed at RK0K R 107, achieving a score of 95.3%. The aircraft approached the runway from the west, heading 92.0° at an altitude of 250 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway. The final approach was executed smoothly, with the pilot maintaining a steady course towards the runway.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 10, which has a length of 396 meters. The threshold height was satisfactory, indicating that the pilot had sufficient clearance to safely land the aircraft. However, the threshold speed was slightly too high at 73 knots, which may have contributed to a slightly longer than ideal touchdown point.
The touchdown point was indeed very long, using more than 50% of the available runway. This may have been due to the pilot's decision to touch down at a speed of 60 knots, which is a little fast for a safe landing. Fortunately, the touchdown rate was good at -196 feet per minute (fpm), indicating that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft during the landing.
One notable issue with the landing was the slight misalignment of the runway touchdown position, which was off-centerline by 3.9 meters. This may have been due to the pilot's reaction to the wind conditions, which were relatively calm, with a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from 269°.
The local weather conditions were generally favorable for landing, with a light tailwind of 1 knot and no crosswind. Overall, the pilot's performance was satisfactory, and the aircraft landed safely, albeit with a few minor issues that could be addressed in future training sessions.
