Maintain the centreline
A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

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 4,001 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 314 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the Honda Jet taxiing from the parking area to the runway at UBBG Ganja International Airport, taking 10 minutes and covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The departure roll took place on runway 12, with a takeoff distance of 834 meters, which was 25% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 123 knots.
As the aircraft climbed out of Ganja International Airport, it encountered local weather conditions of 1°C temperature and winds of 7 knots at 89 degrees. The crosswind was 4 knots, and the headwind was 6 knots. The enroute climb started 1 mile southeast of the airport, with the aircraft ascending from 2,106 feet above sea level to 26,117 feet above sea level, an increase of 24,012 feet in 10 minutes and covering 45 nautical miles.
After reaching the cruising altitude, the aircraft entered a level cruise 6 miles southwest of Agdas, Azerbaijan, and remained at that altitude for 7 minutes, covering 53 nautical miles. The enroute descent started 5 miles west of Shamakhi, Azerbaijan, with the aircraft descending from 25,621 feet above sea level to 13,268 feet above sea level, a decrease of 12,354 feet in 7 minutes and covering 42 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise 4 miles west of Haci Zeynalabdin, Azerbaijan, and remained at that altitude for 2 minutes, covering 10 nautical miles. The enroute descent started 1 mile south of Ceyranbatan, Azerbaijan, with the aircraft descending from 13,272 feet above sea level to 6,615 feet above sea level, a decrease of 6,656 feet in 7 minutes and covering 28 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise 15 miles southeast of Puta, Azerbaijan, and remained at that altitude for 2 minutes, covering 5 nautical miles. The enroute descent started 16 miles south of Badamdar, Azerbaijan, with the aircraft descending from 6,617 feet above sea level to 1,261 feet above sea level, a decrease of 5,357 feet in 7 minutes and covering 19 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 34 at UBBB Heydar Aliyev International Airport was made from the south, with the aircraft heading 347.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,255 feet above ground level. The landing took place on runway 34, which had a length of 4,001 meters. The threshold height was above the target, but the threshold speed was good at 105 knots.
The touchdown distance was good at 312 meters, and the touchdown speed was 99 knots, which was also good. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -262 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 7.6 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 0°C temperature and winds of 11 knots at 0 degrees. The crosswind was 3 knots, and the headwind was 11 knots.
The total landing distance was 767 meters, which was 19% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The total flight distance was 209 nautical miles, and the flight took 48 minutes to complete. The aircraft used 477 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Honda Jet successfully landed at UBBB Heydar Aliyev International Airport, achieving a score of 92.1%. The aircraft approached the runway from the south, heading 347.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,255 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a precise landing on runway 34, which has a length of 4,001 meters.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold height was above the target, but the threshold speed was satisfactory at 105 knots. The touchdown distance was also within acceptable limits at 312 meters. However, the touchdown speed of 99 knots was slightly below the target, and the touchdown rate of -262 feet per minute (fpm) was considered fair.
The landing distance of 767 meters was 19% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll. The runway rollout alignment was very good, demonstrating the pilot's skill in maintaining control of the aircraft during the landing phase.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 0°C and a wind speed of 11 knots from the north. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the headwind component was 11 knots, which likely contributed to the aircraft's stable approach and landing.
Overall, the Honda Jet's landing at UBBB Heydar Aliyev International Airport was a successful one, with the pilot demonstrating good control and precision throughout the approach and landing phases.
