Departure
Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.
What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 2.4°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
Twenty knots on a monitor produces the visual sensation of about ten. The advice to "taxi at a walking pace" cannot fix this, because your sense of walking pace is exactly the thing that's broken. Put the groundspeed readout in your scan and obey it for the next fifty flights, the way a student pilot leans on the airspeed indicator before learning to read attitude.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 500 ft gate: speed above the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,030 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,030 ft of the 7,607 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,227 ft 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, which took 4 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Vision Jet, then departed from runway 14 at Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar International Airport in Nagpur, India. The takeoff distance was 2,361 feet, which accounted for 22% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 97 knots.
As the aircraft climbed, it encountered local weather conditions of 87°F temperature and a 4-knot headwind at 130°. The enroute climb started overhead the airport and continued to an altitude of 30,849 feet, an increase of 28,840 feet in 24 minutes, covering a distance of 85 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began 19 miles north of Amla, Madhya Pradesh, and lasted for 60 minutes, covering a distance of 302 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its descent from 31,347 feet to 3,246 feet, a decrease of 28,101 feet in 28 minutes, covering a distance of 89 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise was restarted multiple times, first 2 miles west of Bahadurgarh, Haryana, lasting 3 minutes and covering 7 nautical miles, and then 2 miles southwest of Najafgarh, National Capital Territory of Delhi, lasting 1 minute and covering 3 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 11R at Indira Gandhi International Airport in New Delhi was made from the west, heading 104.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,256 feet above ground level. The landing was made on the runway, which was 7,607 feet long. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 78 knots.
The touchdown distance was good at 1,224 feet, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 70 knots. The touchdown rate was excellent at -86 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 90°F temperature and a 9-knot headwind at 60°, with a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 6 knots.
The total landing distance was 4,696 feet, accounting for 62% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also very good. After landing, the aircraft took 4 minutes to taxi to the parking, covering less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 496 nautical miles, taking 132 minutes, and the aircraft used 848 pounds of fuel.
The Vision Jet successfully completed a landing at Indira Gandhi International Airport, achieving a high score of 98.3%. The aircraft approached the runway from the west, heading 104.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,256 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was made to runway 11R, which has a length of 7,607 feet.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold height was reported as good, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 78 knots. However, the touchdown distance of 1,224 feet was considered good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown speed of 70 knots was a little fast, but the aircraft's rate of descent was excellent at -86 feet per minute (fpm), demonstrating precise control.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 90°F and a wind speed of 9 knots from a direction of 60°. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 6 knots, which did not significantly impact the landing. The total landing distance of 4,696 feet was 62% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll.
The runway rollout alignment was reported as very good, suggesting that the aircraft maintained a stable and controlled path during the landing roll. Overall, the Vision Jet's landing at Indira Gandhi International Airport was a success, with the aircraft demonstrating precise control and a high degree of proficiency.
