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 264 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 departure roll on runway 12 at LIPE Borgo Panigale. The takeoff distance was 350 meters, which accounted for 16% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 72 knots. The local weather at the time of departure was 15°C with no significant wind.
The enroute climb began overhead LIPE Borgo Panigale Bologna and lasted 4 minutes, during which the aircraft climbed from 773 feet above sea level to 4,265 feet above sea level, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase that started 1 mile north of Castel Maggiore and lasted 7 minutes, covering a distance of 15 nautical miles.
Another climb was initiated overhead LIPF Ferrara Ferrara, during which the aircraft climbed from 4,029 feet above sea level to 7,188 feet above sea level in 7 minutes, covering 9 nautical miles. This was followed by a brief level cruise phase that lasted 2 minutes, covering 5 nautical miles.
The descent phase started 1 mile east of Cento, during which the aircraft descended from 7,021 feet above sea level to 4,005 feet above sea level in 4 minutes, covering 11 nautical miles. A second level cruise phase ensued, lasting 2 minutes and covering 3 nautical miles, before beginning a descent from 3,993 feet above sea level to 1,920 feet above sea level in 3 minutes and covering 5 nautical miles.
The landing took place on runway 12 at LIPE Borgo Panigale, with a runway length of 2,132 meters. The height at threshold was 26 feet above ground level, with a speed of 67 knots. The touchdown occurred 263 meters from the threshold at a speed of 56 knots and a vertical speed indicator of -33 feet per minute.
The total landing distance was 368 meters, accounting for 17% of the runway. The weather at the time of landing was 15°C with no significant wind.
After landing, taxiing to the parking area from the runway took 4 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 59 nautical miles, with a total flight time of 42 minutes and fuel consumption of 17 kilograms.
First of all, congratulations on achieving a commendable aircraft landing score of 97.2%! This is a clear indicator of the pilot's skill and proficiency in handling the aircraft during various phases of the landing process.
Let's delve deeper into the analysis of the different phases of the landing to understand the strengths and areas of improvement:
Approach Phase: The poor descent path above the glideslope limit indicates that there may have been a slight deviation from the ideal vertical descent profile during this phase. This is an area that can be improved by ensuring a more precise approach path to align with the glideslope for a smoother descent.
Landing Phase: The fact that the threshold height was good and the landing flare was excellent highlights the pilot's ability to accurately judge the altitude and execute a smooth transition from descent to landing. This is crucial for a safe and precise touchdown.
Touchdown Phase: The perfect touchdown rate, on-target speed, and touchdown distance inside the touchdown zone demonstrate a high level of control and precision during the critical moment of touchdown. The fact that the runway touchdown position was only 3.0 meters from the centerline further underscores the pilot's ability to maintain alignment during this phase.
Rollout Phase: The very good runway alignment in the rollout phase indicates that the pilot was able to maintain a straight path down the runway after touchdown, which is essential for safe taxiing and exit from the runway.
In conclusion, while there are areas for improvement in the Approach Phase in terms of descent path alignment, the Landing, Touchdown, and Rollout Phases showcase excellent performance in terms of altitude control, speed management, precision touchdown, and runway alignment. With continued practice and focus on refining the approach phase descent path, the pilot can further enhance their overall landing performance. Keep up the good work and strive for even higher scores in the future!
