Flight Score
Departure
Use smooth aileron to roll the wings level in the first climb segment, holding bank angle near wings-level instead of letting it build to 2.4°.
What happened: The wings held 2.4° of bank through the first climb segment and had drifted to 1.3° by the second - this early wing-level drift usually carries through into a larger bank excursion later in the climb.
Watch for: Watch the attitude indicator's bank pointer and keep it at wings level throughout the climb.
Arrival
Reduce power to re-establish a normal three degree glidepath on final.
What happened: On final at the four-mile point, the approach angle was steeper than the target glidepath.
Watch for: VSI against a stable descent rate matching the glidepath angle
See Arrival Final 4
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: no landing flap set and off the centreline.
At the 500 ft gate: sink rate above what the glideslope needed, off the runway's 3.5° glideslope and off the centreline.

Side view — the last 1,130 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 1,130 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 224 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a departure roll from runway 36 at Chambéry Savoie Mont Blanc Airport, LFLB. The Cessna Skyhawk took off with a takeoff distance of 336 meters, which is 20% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 62 knots, and the aircraft climbed away from the airport.
As the aircraft climbed, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 22 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 8 knots at 9 degrees. The crosswind component was 2 knots, and the headwind component was 7 knots. The enroute climb started 1 mile northeast of Le Bourget-du-Lac, Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes, France, and the aircraft climbed from 1,760 feet above sea level to 3,828 feet above sea level, an increase of 2,068 feet in 4 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles.
After the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, starting overhead Brison-Saint-Innocent, Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes, France. This phase lasted for 6 minutes and covered a distance of 11 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 04 at Annecy Haute-Savoie Mont Blanc Airport, LFLP, from the southwest, heading 47.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,663 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 04 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 223 meters, which is a good distance. However, the touchdown speed of 58 knots was a little fast, and the touchdown rate of -78 feet per minute was excellent. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, but the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 11.5 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 21 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 4 knots at 329 degrees. The crosswind component was 4 knots, and the headwind component was 1 knot. The total landing distance was 950 meters, which is 84% of the runway length. The taxiing to the parking from the runway took 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 21 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 16 minutes, using 8 kilograms of fuel.
The Cessna Skyhawk successfully landed at LFLP Annecy Haute-Savoie Mont Blanc Airport, achieving an impressive score of 88.8%. The aircraft approached the runway from the south-west, heading 47.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,663 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a precise final approach, ensuring a good threshold height and a well-above-target threshold speed of 66 knots.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft demonstrated a good landing distance of 223 meters, which is within the acceptable range. However, the touchdown speed of 58 knots was slightly faster than the target speed, indicating a minor deviation in the pilot's control. The touchdown rate of -78 feet per minute (fpm) was excellent, showcasing the pilot's skill in managing the aircraft's descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 21°C and a gentle wind of 4 knots at 329°. The crosswind component was minimal at 4 knots, while the headwind component was 1 knot. These conditions contributed to a smooth and stable approach.
The total landing distance of 950 meters was 84% of the runway length, indicating a safe and controlled landing. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 11.5 meters from the centerline, which may require attention from the pilot to maintain a precise alignment during future landings.
Overall, the Cessna Skyhawk's landing at LFLP Annecy Haute-Savoie Mont Blanc Airport was a success, with the pilot demonstrating a high level of skill and control throughout the approach and landing phases.
