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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,807 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 347 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight in the Beechcraft King Air 350A started at LFBZ Biarritz-Anglet-Bayonne Airport. The taxi from the parking to the runway took 4 minutes, covering less than 1 nm. The departure roll was from runway 27, with a takeoff distance of 553 m (27% of the runway) at a liftoff speed of 111 kn. The local weather at the time indicated a temperature of 14°C, with a wind speed of 11 kn at 250° resulting in a crosswind of 4 kn and a headwind of 11 kn.
The enroute climb started overhead Biarritz, climbing from 1,301 ft asl to 29,648 ft asl, covering a distance of 51 nm in 14 minutes. The enroute level cruise began 3 miles east of Solferino and lasted 32 minutes, covering 208 nm. The enroute descent started overhead Chateau-la-Valliere, descending from 29,332 ft asl to 6,824 ft asl, covering 80 nm in 15 minutes.
After reaching a level cruise, the next descent was initiated overhead Jouy-en-Josas, descending from 6,826 ft asl to 3,203 ft asl, covering 27 nm in 7 minutes. The final approach to runway 27 at LFPB Paris-Le Bourget Airport was from the east, heading 265.0° at 4 nm and 1,240 ft agl. The landing occurred on runway 27 at LFPB Paris-Le Bourget Airport, with a runway length of 1,807 m. The touchdown point was 344 m from the threshold, with a touchdown speed of 91 kn and a VSI of -165 ft/m.
The total landing distance was 489 m (27% of the runway). The taxi from the runway to the parking took 4 minutes, covering less than 1 nm. The total flight distance was 410 nm, taking 97 minutes and consuming 502 kg of fuel.
Overall, congratulations on achieving a landing score of 97.4%! This is an excellent result and shows a high level of skill and proficiency in aircraft landing.
In the Approach Phase, it is noted that there was a poor descent path above the glideslope limit. This indicates that there may have been a slight deviation from the ideal descent path, potentially causing the aircraft to be slightly higher than expected during this phase of the landing. Moving forward, it may be beneficial to focus on maintaining a more precise descent path to ensure a smoother approach to the runway.
During the Landing Phase, it is highlighted that the threshold height was good and the landing flare was perfect. This is fantastic to hear, as a good threshold height ensures a safe and smooth landing, while a perfect landing flare further contributes to a successful touchdown. Keep up the great work in maintaining these aspects of the landing process.
In the Touchdown Phase, it is worth noting that the touchdown rate was smooth, although the speed was a little above target. Additionally, the touchdown distance was inside the touchdown zone, which is positive, and the runway touchdown position was 1.9m from the centerline. While the slightly higher speed may be a minor point to consider, the overall smooth touchdown and accurate positioning on the runway are commendable.
Finally, in the Rollout Phase, it is mentioned that the runway alignment was very good. This demonstrates strong control and precision in maintaining the aircraft's alignment with the runway during the rollout, which is crucial for a safe and effective landing.
In conclusion, while there are some areas for potential improvement such as maintaining a more precise descent path and ensuring speed is on target, your overall performance in the landing process is highly impressive. Continue to focus on refining your skills and techniques to achieve even higher levels of excellence in aircraft landings. Keep up the great work and strive for continued success in your future landings. Great job!
