Improve the taxi
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.
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 1,037 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 1,037 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 487 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 LFLK Oyonnax-Arbent Airfield, a process that took 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 04L, with a takeoff distance of 535 meters, which accounted for 69% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 98 knots.
As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions of 4°C temperature and a wind speed of 6 knots at 109 degrees. The crosswind was 5 knots, while the headwind was 2 knots. The enroute climb started overhead Arbent, Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes, France, where the aircraft climbed from 2,415 feet above sea level to 17,820 feet above sea level, an increase of 15,405 feet in 8 minutes, covering a distance of 19 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began overhead Bellevue, Geneve, Switzerland, and lasted for 39 minutes, covering a distance of 170 nautical miles. The descent started overhead Mazzo di Valtellina, Lombardia, Italy, where the aircraft descended from 17,751 feet above sea level to 6,554 feet above sea level, a decrease of 11,197 feet in 6 minutes, covering a distance of 15 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 25 at LIQM Aviosuperficie Passo del Tonale was made from the east, heading 254.0 degrees at 1 nautical mile and 299 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 25 was successful, with a runway length of 1,037 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was a little below target at 83 knots.
The touchdown point was 49 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 69 knots, which was good. The touchdown rate was perfect at 245 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 3°C temperature and a wind speed of 3 knots at 274 degrees, with a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 3 knots.
The total landing distance was 747 meters, which accounted for 72% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled landing. The total flight distance was 207 nautical miles, taking 58 minutes, and the aircraft used 216 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Vision Jet successfully landed at Aviosuperficie Passo del Tonale, LIQM, with a score of 99.2%. The aircraft approached the runway from the east, heading 254.0° at 1 nautical mile and 299 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with precision, and the aircraft touched down on runway 25, which has a length of 1,037 meters.
The threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 83 knots. However, the touchdown speed of 69 knots was within the acceptable range, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown rate of 245 feet per minute (fpm) was also perfect, demonstrating the pilot's expertise in managing the aircraft's descent.
The local weather conditions were favorable for the landing, with a temperature of 3°C and a gentle wind of 3 knots at 274°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 3 knots, which helped to stabilize the aircraft during the approach.
The total landing distance of 747 meters was 72% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
Overall, the Vision Jet's landing at Aviosuperficie Passo del Tonale was a textbook example of a well-executed approach and landing. The pilot's skills and experience were evident in the aircraft's smooth and controlled descent, and the landing was completed with precision and safety.
