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 1,520 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 1,520 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 460 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the Vision Jet taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Teterboro Airport (KTEB), taking approximately 7 minutes and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 19, with a takeoff distance of 397 meters, which accounted for 24% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 96 knots.
As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions of 1°C temperature and a wind speed of 0 knots at 90 degrees. The crosswind and headwind were both 0 knots. The enroute climb started overhead Moonachie, New Jersey, where the aircraft ascended from 1,042 feet above sea level to 18,788 feet above sea level, an increase of 17,746 feet in 9 minutes, covering 22 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began 2 miles west of Watchung, New Jersey, and lasted for 13 minutes, covering 50 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its enroute descent 1 mile west of East Greenville, Pennsylvania, where it descended from 18,973 feet above sea level to 1,976 feet above sea level, a decrease of 16,997 feet in 6 minutes, covering 28 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise resumed 1 mile northeast of Bala-Cynwyd, Pennsylvania, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering 7 nautical miles. The enroute descent started overhead Merchantville, New Jersey, where the aircraft descended from 1,801 feet above sea level to 1,024 feet above sea level, a decrease of 776 feet in 2 minutes, covering 5 nautical miles.
The final enroute level cruise took place overhead Haddonfield, New Jersey, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering 4 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 26 at Philadelphia International Airport (KPHL), heading 253.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,331 feet above ground level.
The landing took place on runway 26, which had a length of 1,520 meters. The threshold height was above the target, while the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 90 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 460 meters, with a touchdown speed of 76 knots and a touchdown rate of -156 feet per minute, which was also good.
However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 9.4 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 5°C temperature and a wind speed of 5 knots at 310 degrees, with a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 3 knots. The total landing distance was 596 meters, which accounted for 39% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.2 meters from the centerline.
The taxiing from the runway to the parking area took approximately 4 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 122 nautical miles, taking 46 minutes, and the aircraft used 157 kilograms of fuel.
The Vision Jet aircraft successfully landed on runway 26 at KPHL Philadelphia International Airport, achieving an overall score of 87.3%. The final approach was initiated from the east, heading 253.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,331 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down at a speed of 76 knots, which was within the acceptable range. The touchdown distance of 460 meters was also considered good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the threshold height at 64 feet agl was above the target, suggesting a slightly higher-than-ideal approach.
The threshold speed of 90 knots was slightly below the target, but this was not considered a significant deviation. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 9.4 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to factors such as wind or pilot error.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 5°C, with a wind speed of 5 knots at 310°. The crosswind component was 4 knots, while the headwind component was 3 knots. These conditions may have contributed to the slight misalignment of the runway touchdown position.
The total landing distance of 596 meters was 39% of the runway length, which is within the acceptable range. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.2 meters from the centerline, indicating a possible deviation from the desired path.
Overall, the Vision Jet aircraft demonstrated a good performance during the landing, with a smooth touchdown and a controlled rollout. However, there were some minor deviations from the target parameters, which may be addressed through further training or adjustments to the aircraft's systems.
