Monitor your speed
Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering it.

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 2,224 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 274 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 13 at EGOV Anglesey Airport, where the Hawk T1 aircraft took off with a takeoff distance of 1,072 meters, which is 47% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 150 knots. At the time of departure, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 17 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from 270 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind and tailwind.
As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it started its enroute climb overhead Rhosneigr, a location on the island of Anglesey in Wales. The climb was from an initial altitude of 746 feet above sea level to a maximum altitude of 21,888 feet, representing an increase of 21,142 feet in just 6 minutes. During this climb, the aircraft covered a distance of 29 nautical miles.
After reaching the desired altitude, the aircraft began its enroute descent, starting 3 miles southeast of Colwyn Bay in Conwy, Wales. The descent was from a maximum altitude of 22,420 feet to a final altitude of 598 feet, a decrease of 21,822 feet in 6 minutes. The aircraft covered a distance of 28 nautical miles during this descent.
The final approach to runway 09 at EGGP Liverpool John Lennon Airport was made from the west, with the aircraft heading 89.0 degrees at an altitude of 517 feet above ground level and 2 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was executed on runway 09, which has a length of 2,224 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was well above the target speed of 121 knots.
The touchdown distance was good at 275 meters, and the touchdown speed was 112 knots, which is within the acceptable range. However, the touchdown rate was hard at -496 feet per minute, indicating a relatively steep descent. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was well-aligned with the runway during the landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were similar to those at the time of departure, with a temperature of 17 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from 270 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind and a tailwind of 1 knot.
The total flight distance was 60 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 13 minutes. The aircraft used 226 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Hawk T1 aircraft successfully landed at Liverpool John Lennon Airport, achieving a score of 96.0%. The final approach to runway 09 was conducted from the west, with a heading of 89.0° at a distance of 2 nautical miles and an altitude of 517 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway, with a touchdown distance of 275 meters, which was considered good. The touchdown speed of 112 knots was also within acceptable limits, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the touchdown rate of -496 feet per minute (fpm) was classified as hard, suggesting that the aircraft may have experienced a slight jolt upon touchdown.
The threshold height was reported as good, and the threshold speed was well above the target speed, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain a safe margin of speed during the approach. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, suggesting that the aircraft was well-aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 17°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 270°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind component and a slight tailwind of 1 knot, which did not appear to have any significant impact on the landing. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score and demonstrating good control and precision during the approach and touchdown phases.
