Flight Score
Departure
Ease back pressure in smoothly as you approach 67 kt, holding a steady rotation rate rather than snatching the controls.
What happened: On the takeoff roll the aircraft bounced before becoming fully airborne.
Watch for: Attitude indicator: a smooth, continuous pitch-up through liftoff with no secondary bounce.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Make small rudder corrections against a fixed point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline.
What happened: You drifted off the centreline on the approach.
Watch for: Runway centreline: tracked all the way to the threshold.
See Arrival Approach
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 for a circuit: seven checks where the approach path is 300 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate is an instrument-approach check and does not apply. These checks are the approach's score.
At the 300 ft gate: centreline 1.7° off, against a 1° limit.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,490 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 186 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Beechcraft A36 Bonanza departed runway 23 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde, executing a departure roll of 376 m which represented 15 % of the available runway. Liftoff was achieved at 76 kt. Ambient conditions were 15 °C with a wind of 1 kt from 270°, providing a 1 kt head-wind component and a 1 kt cross-wind component.
During the approach the aircraft entered a left-hand pattern on runway 23, covering less than 1 nm in 18 seconds for the entry and less than 1 nm in 17 seconds for the cross-wind segment. The downwind turn spanned 1 nm with an angle to the runway of 96.0°, followed by a downwind leg of 2 nm completed in 57 seconds. The base turn covered 1 nm at an angle of 39.6°, and the base leg was less than 1 nm in 26 seconds. The final turn was less than 1 nm in 13 seconds, after which the aircraft established final approach from the north-east on a heading of 231.0°, at 1 nm distance and 264 ft above ground level.
Landing was made on runway 23, whose length is 2,493 m. The threshold speed was recorded slightly below the target at 69 kt. Weather at the time remained 15 °C with a wind of 1 kt from 269°, yielding a 1 kt head-wind and a 1 kt cross-wind component.
Touchdown occurred 187 m down the runway at a speed of 56 kt, with a vertical rate of minus 93 fpm and a very good runway alignment. The aircraft then rolled out along the remaining runway.
In total the flight covered 6 nm, taking 4 and consuming 2 kg of fuel.
The Beechcraft A36 Bonanza established the final approach to runway 23 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde from the north-east, maintaining a heading of 231.0 ° at 1 nm and 264 ft agl. Local weather was 15 °C with wind 1 kt from 269 °, providing a 1 kt crosswind and a 1 kt headwind.
At threshold the aircraft achieved a good height and the threshold speed was slightly below target at 69 kt.
Touchdown occurred 187 m down the runway at a speed of 56 kt, with an excellent vertical rate of minus 93 fpm and very good runway alignment.
The landing earned a perfect score, indicating all measured parameters were within acceptable limits. Fine-tuning the approach speed to meet the exact target would eliminate the slight undershoot noted at threshold. Maintaining this precision will preserve the high overall performance.
