Flight Score
Track the centreline on final
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.
At the 500 ft gate: off the centreline.

Plan view — the full 500 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 156 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with taxiing from the parking to the runway at LIPE Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport, which took 8 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 12, with a takeoff distance of 570 meters, which accounted for 27% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 106 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it encountered local weather conditions of 20°C temperature and a 4-knot wind at 30°. The enroute climb started overhead LIPE Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport, where the aircraft climbed from 1,009 feet above sea level to 21,049 feet above sea level, an increase of 20,040 feet in 13 minutes, covering a distance of 40 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 1 mile south west of Papozze, Italy, and lasted for 18 minutes, covering a distance of 86 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent from 21,027 feet above sea level to 7,960 feet above sea level, a decrease of 13,067 feet in 13 minutes, covering a distance of 55 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started again, this time overhead Deutsch Griffen, Austria, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another climb from 7,916 feet above sea level to 8,796 feet above sea level, an increase of 880 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started once more, this time overhead Metnitz, Austria, and lasted for 7 minutes, covering a distance of 25 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent from 8,847 feet above sea level to 3,112 feet above sea level, a decrease of 5,735 feet in 5 minutes, covering a distance of 10 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 29 at LOGI Trieben Airfield was made from the east, heading 285.0° at 4 nautical miles and 824 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 29 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 156 meters and a touchdown speed of 87 knots, which was slightly too fast. The touchdown rate was fair at -280 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.2 meters from the centreline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 9°C temperature and a 2-knot wind at 359°. The crosswind was 2 knots, and the headwind was 1 knot. The total landing distance was 327 meters, which accounted for 66% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good, and the taxiing to the parking from the runway took less than 1 minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 232 nautical miles, taking 69 minutes, and the aircraft used 39 kilograms of fuel.
The Vision Jet aircraft successfully landed at LOGI Trieben Airfield, achieving an overall score of 88.6%. The final approach to runway 29 was initiated from the east, heading 285.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 824 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway, with a touchdown distance of 156 meters, which was considered good. However, the touchdown speed of 87 knots was deemed too fast, indicating that the pilot could have applied more gentle braking or adjusted the approach speed to achieve a smoother touchdown. The touchdown rate of -280 feet per minute (fpm) was fair, suggesting that the pilot maintained control during the descent.
One notable area for improvement was the threshold speed, which was excessively high at 94 knots. This indicates that the pilot may have been too aggressive during the approach, potentially leading to a higher risk of overshooting the runway or experiencing a hard landing.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.2 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach or a miscalculation of the runway alignment. However, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control and stability during the rollout phase.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 9°C and a wind speed of 2 knots from 359°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, while the headwind component was 1 knot. These conditions likely contributed to a relatively smooth landing, but the pilot's skills and decision-making played a crucial role in achieving a safe and successful touchdown.
