Speed on the fast side
Speed at this height is usually bought with gradient. It's rarely dangerous and it's often just an early acceleration, but with flaps still out you may be heading towards the flap limit and a flat fast climb puts you at the acceleration altitude with the cleaning-up still to do.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,247 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,247 ft of the 9,748 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,270 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The aircraft taxied from the parking area to the runway, a movement that lasted 11 minutes and covered 4 nm.
Takeoff was executed from runway 17R at CYYC Calgary International Airport. The ground roll measured 2,838 ft, representing 22 % of the runway, and liftoff was achieved at 94 kt. Ambient conditions were 44 °F with a wind of 7 kt from 180°, providing a 7 kt headwind and no crosswind component.
Climb commenced 2 miles south of CYYC, with the aircraft ascending from 4,463 ft asl to 29,804 ft asl, a gain of 25,341 ft. This climb was completed in 19 minutes while covering 66 nm.
The first cruise segment began 12 miles east of Elkford, British Columbia, and persisted for 68 minutes, during which 300 nm were flown.
Descent started 11 miles north-east of 1U4 New Meadows Airport, Idaho, with altitude decreasing from 29,430 ft asl to 11,374 ft asl, a loss of 18,056 ft. The descent lasted 13 minutes and spanned 55 nm.
A brief cruise followed, initiating 8 miles west of ID44 Hidden Lakes Airport, Cascade, Idaho, and lasting 2 minutes while covering 7 nm.
The second descent began 12 miles south-west of ID44 Hidden Lakes Airport, descending from 10,996 ft asl to 4,111 ft asl, a reduction of 6,884 ft. This phase took 8 minutes and encompassed 34 nm.
Final approach to runway 10R at KBOI Boise Air Terminal/Gowen Field was conducted from the west, on a heading of 115.0° at 4 nm and 1,284 ft agl. The aircraft further descended from 1,320 ft agl to 224 ft agl in 126 seconds and was scored on the stabilisation gates.
Landing on runway 10R, which is 9,748 ft long, featured a threshold speed of 89 kt. Touchdown occurred at 1,264 ft down the runway with a speed of 84 kt, and the vertical speed at touchdown was minus 74 fpm. Alignment on touchdown was perfect. Local weather reported a temperature of 73 °F, wind 10 kt from 320°, a 4 kt crosswind component and a 9 kt tailwind.
The total landing distance recorded was 4,940 ft, representing 51 % of the runway, and rollout alignment was very good.
After exiting the runway, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
In summary, the flight covered a total of 476 nm, required 122 minutes of elapsed time, and consumed 860 lb of fuel.
The final approach to runway 10R at KBOI Boise Air Terminal/Gowen Field was conducted from the west on a heading of 115.0° at 4 nm and 1,284 ft agl. The approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope, centreline and speed all within limits, and the aircraft descended from 1,320 ft agl to 224 ft agl in 126 seconds.
At threshold the height was good and the threshold speed was good at 89 kt. The aircraft touched down 1,264 ft down the runway; touchdown speed at 84 kt was fast, while touchdown rate was excellent at minus 74 fpm and runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
Touchdown occurred with the aircraft aligned on centreline, the speed remaining above the optimal value at 84 kt, the vertical speed of minus 74 fpm indicating a firm but controlled contact, and the touchdown point measured 1,264 ft from the threshold.
Rollout used a total landing distance of 4,940 ft, representing 51 % of the 9,748-ft runway, and runway rollout alignment was very good.
The 78.8 % score reflects solid performance, but the fast touchdown speed should be reduced to the target range by refining flare timing. Maintaining the stabilised approach will help achieve the desired speed without compromising alignment or touchdown point.
