Hold the approach angle
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: 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 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 9,153 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,237 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the Vision Jet taxiing from the parking area to the runway at UHHH Khabarovsk Novy Airport, taking approximately 7 minutes and covering a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 23R, with a takeoff distance of 1,598 feet, which accounted for 14% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 94 knots.
As the aircraft climbed, it started to ascend from an altitude of 1,087 feet above sea level to 28,150 feet above sea level, an increase of 27,063 feet, over a distance of 54 nautical miles, in 18 minutes. This enroute climb phase took place over the Khabarovsk region in Russia. Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 38 minutes and covered a distance of 182 nautical miles, starting 5 miles north of Smidovich in the Yevrey Autonomous Oblast.
The enroute descent phase began 4 miles northwest of Novoraychikhinsk in the Amur Oblast, where the aircraft descended from 28,394 feet above sea level to 2,428 feet above sea level, a decrease of 25,966 feet, over a distance of 86 nautical miles, in 24 minutes. The final approach to runway 36 at UHBB Ignatyevo Airport was made from the south, with the aircraft heading 349.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,814 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 36 at UHBB Ignatyevo Airport was successful, with a touchdown distance of 1,235 feet, which was good, and a touchdown speed of 67 knots, also within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate was good at -169 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 11 feet from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 46 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 5 knots from 339 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 5 knots.
The total landing distance was 2,023 feet, which accounted for 22% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking approximately 3 minutes and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 329 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 96 minutes, with the aircraft using 700 pounds of fuel.
The Vision Jet has successfully landed at UHBB Ignatyevo Airport, achieving a score of 98.2%. The aircraft approached the runway from the south, heading 349.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,814 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a precise final approach, taking into account the runway's length of 9,153 feet and its orientation.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 76 knots. The touchdown distance of 1,235 feet was also within acceptable limits, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown speed of 67 knots was good, and the touchdown rate of -169 feet per minute (fpm) was also satisfactory, demonstrating a gentle and stable landing.
However, there was a slight deviation in the runway touchdown position, with the aircraft being 11 feet off the centerline. This minor misalignment may be attributed to the pilot's judgment or the aircraft's handling characteristics. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 46°F and a wind speed of 5 knots at 339°, contributed to a headwind of 5 knots and a negligible crosswind of 1 knot.
The total landing distance of 2,023 feet was 22% of the runway's length, which is a reasonable and safe margin. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control and stability throughout the landing process. Overall, the Vision Jet's landing at UHBB Ignatyevo Airport was a success, with the pilot demonstrating good judgment and control in challenging weather conditions.
