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.
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,768 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 301 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight in the Beechcraft King Air 350 began with a 9-minute taxi from the parking area to the runway at CYYC Calgary Intl. The departure roll on runway 29 covered 676 meters, which was 28% of the runway length. The takeoff speed was 112 knots. The local weather at the time of takeoff was 11°C with a 14-knot wind coming from 279°, resulting in a 5-knot crosswind and a 13-knot headwind.
During the enroute climb, the aircraft ascended from 4,551 feet above sea level to 25,924 feet, covering 27 nautical miles in 10 minutes. The enroute level cruise lasted 25 minutes, covering 125 nautical miles. The descent began 12 miles west of Sunburst, Montana, descending from 26,118 feet to 5,458 feet in 18 minutes while traveling 77 nautical miles.
The landing took place on runway 17 at KGTF Great Falls Intl, with a touchdown speed of 89 knots and a Vertical Speed Indicator reading of -72 ft/min. The aircraft touched down 291 meters from the threshold, with a total landing distance of 470 meters (27% of the runway). The weather at the time of landing was 11°C with a 7-knot wind from 270°, resulting in a 7-knot crosswind and no headwind.

Great job on achieving a perfect landing score of 100.0%! Let's walk through each phase of the aircraft landing to see what went right.
During the Approach Phase, you demonstrated excellent glideslope alignment, which indicates that you maintained the correct descent angle towards the runway. This is crucial for a smooth and controlled landing. By staying on the correct path, you set yourself up for success in the following phases of the landing.
Moving on to the Landing Phase, you performed admirably with good threshold height and perfect landing flare. The threshold height refers to the altitude at which you initiate the landing sequence, and hitting this mark shows precision and skill. Additionally, executing a perfect landing flare means that you smoothly transitioned from descent to touchdown, ensuring a gentle and stable contact with the runway.
In the Touchdown Phase, your touchdown rate was excellent, indicating that you landed smoothly and without any abrupt impacts. Maintaining the correct speed during touchdown is crucial for safety and comfort, and it's great to see that you were right on target. Furthermore, landing within the touchdown zone and positioning the aircraft just 2.9 meters from the centerline demonstrates exceptional control and accuracy.
Lastly, the Rollout Phase shows that your runway alignment was very good, meaning that you kept the aircraft on a straight path during the final stages of landing and rollout. This is essential for ensuring a safe and efficient exit from the runway.
Overall, your performance during each phase of the landing was top-notch. Keep up the excellent work and continue honing your skills to maintain this level of proficiency in future flights. Your attention to detail and precision are commendable, and they undoubtedly contributed to your outstanding landing score. Congratulations on a job well done!
