Improve the rollout
Ground control varies with speed, full authority at walking pace, progressively reducing as groundspeed rises. The aircraft becomes twitchy at any speed, every small pedal input swings the nose, which can encourage large-amplitude leg inputs that no real aircraft would accept.

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 152 m above the runway. The 305 m gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 1,572 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,572 m of the 2,203 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 475 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 14 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Learjet 35A, then departed from runway 08 at LOWL Linz-Hörsching Airport / Vogler Air Base. The takeoff distance was 782 meters, which accounted for 30% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 140 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 8 knots at a direction of 62 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 8 knots.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead LOWL Linz-Hörsching Airport / Vogler Air Base. The climb took the aircraft from an altitude of 602 meters above sea level to 10,933 meters above sea level, an increase of 10,331.2 meters, in just 20 minutes. This climb phase covered a distance of 98 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise phase followed, which began 1 mile south east of Sankt Kanzian (Kaernten, Austria) and lasted for 30 minutes. During this phase, the aircraft covered a distance of 181 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent, which started overhead Montescudo (Emilia-Romagna, Italy). The descent took the aircraft from an altitude of 11,125 meters above sea level to 702 meters above sea level, a decrease of 10,422.3 meters, in just 17 minutes. This descent phase covered a distance of 54 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 01 at LIRZ San Francesco d'Assisi – Umbria International Airport was made from the south, with a heading of 15.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 485.1 meters above ground level.
The landing on runway 01 was successful, with a touchdown point located 56 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 113 knots, which was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate was firm at -1.7 meters per second. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 14.5 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 23 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 7 knots at a direction of 230 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 4 knots and a tailwind of 6 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,489 meters, which accounted for 68% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 16.1 meters from the centerline. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, which took 4 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 343 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 80 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 672 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Learjet 35A successfully landed at LIRZ San Francesco d'Assisi – Umbria International Airport, achieving a score of 90.5%. The aircraft approached the runway from the south, heading 15.0° at 4 nautical miles and 485.1 meters above ground level (agl). The pilot maintained a good threshold height and speed, touching down at 124 knots.
The touchdown point was 56 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The touchdown speed of 113 knots was also within acceptable limits, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown rate of -1.7 meters per second was firm, suggesting that the aircraft was well under control during the landing.
However, there were some minor issues with the alignment of the aircraft during the landing. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 14.5 meters from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was also off by 16.1 meters. These deviations are relatively minor and may not have had a significant impact on the safety of the landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 23°C and a gentle wind of 7 knots from 230°. The crosswind component was minimal at 4 knots, and the tailwind component was 6 knots, which may have contributed to the slight misalignment of the aircraft during the landing.
Overall, the Learjet 35A performed well during the landing, with a total landing distance of 1,489 meters, which is 68% of the runway length. While there were some minor deviations from the ideal landing, the pilot's skills and the aircraft's performance were sufficient to ensure a safe and successful landing.
