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 2,132 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 63 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight in the Tecnam P2006T MKII started with a smooth departure from runway 12 at LIPE Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport. The takeoff was swift, with a distance of 286 m, which accounted for 13 % of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 68 kn, with calm weather conditions including a temperature of 16 °C and no wind.
As the flight progressed, the enroute climb began over Bologna, ascending from 1,130 ft asl to 5,012 ft asl in just 4 minutes, covering 7 nm. The climb was followed by a level cruise phase lasting 9 minutes, covering 13 nm. The second enroute climb started near Montalbano, ascending from 5,009 ft asl to 9,363 ft asl in 7 minutes, covering 9 nm.
The descent phase commenced near Molinella, descending from 9,278 ft asl to 4,295 ft asl in 6 minutes, covering 11 nm. Another brief level cruise followed, lasting 9 minutes and covering less than 1 nm. The final descent started near Ozzano dell'Emilia, descending from 4,004 ft asl to 1,970 ft asl in 3 minutes, covering 4 nm.
The landing back at LIPE Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport on runway 30 was executed smoothly, with a touchdown occurring 62 m from the threshold at a speed of 55 kn and a VSI of -183 ft/m. The total landing distance was 167 m, accounting for 8 % of the runway. Local weather conditions during landing included a temperature of 15 °C and no wind.
Overall, the flight covered a distance of 50 nm, lasting 49 minutes and consuming a total of 22 kg of fuel. The Tecnam P2006T MKII proved to be a reliable and efficient aircraft throughout the journey.
Overall, the aircraft landing score of 96.9% is quite impressive and shows that the pilot did an excellent job in most aspects of the landing procedure.
Starting with the Approach Phase, there were a couple of areas for improvement. The descent path was slightly above the glideslope limit, which could have been corrected to ensure a smoother descent towards the runway. Additionally, the speed was a little below target, indicating the potential for a more precise approach.
Moving on to the Landing Phase, it is clear that the pilot performed well in this stage. The threshold height was good, indicating a proper alignment with the runway. The landing flare was executed perfectly, which is crucial for a smooth and controlled touchdown.
In the Touchdown Phase, the touchdown rate was good and the speed was on target, showcasing the pilot's skill in managing the aircraft during the critical moment of touchdown. The touchdown distance inside the touchdown zone is also commendable, as it demonstrates precise control over the aircraft's position relative to the runway. The runway touchdown position being 2.5 m from the centerline shows good alignment with the runway.
Finally, in the Rollout Phase, the runway alignment being 3.5 m from the centerline could be improved slightly for a more precise landing. However, this minor deviation does not significantly detract from the overall high score achieved in the landing.
Overall, the pilot should be proud of their performance, as the majority of the landing phases were executed well. By addressing the minor areas for improvement in the Approach and Rollout Phases, the pilot can strive for even higher scores in future landings. Encouragement and recognition should be given for the excellent execution of the Landing and Touchdown Phases, as these are key aspects of a successful landing. With continued practice and attention to detail, the pilot has the potential to further improve their landing technique and achieve even higher scores in the future. Keep up the great work!
