Monitor your speed
Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering it.

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 4,494 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the full 4,494 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 330 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the departure roll from runway 23 at CNZ3 Chatham-Kent, where the Aermacchi MB-339NAT Al Fursan aircraft took off with a takeoff distance of 2,289 ft, which accounted for 46% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 147 kt, and the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 62 °F and a wind speed of 3 kt at 270 °, resulting in a 2 kt headwind and a negligible crosswind.
As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb 1 mile south west of CYCK Chatham Kent Airport, Chatham-Kent (Ontario, Canada), and ascended from 1,717 ft asl to 9,583 ft asl, an increase of 7,866 ft in just 3 minutes, covering a distance of 15 nm. The climb was followed by a descent from 9,605 ft asl to 749 ft asl, a decrease of 8,856 ft in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 1 nm. The aircraft then initiated another climb from 735 ft asl to 737 ft asl, an increase of 2 ft in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 14 nm.
The final approach to runway 24 at CYCK Chatham Kent Airport was made from the north east, heading 227.0 ° at 0 nm and 94 ft agl. The landing on runway 24 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 324 ft and a touchdown speed of 110 kt. The touchdown rate was smooth at -113 fpm, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions during the landing were characterized by a temperature of 67 °F and a wind speed of 3 kt at 224 °, resulting in a 3 kt headwind and a negligible crosswind.
The total landing distance was 1,769 ft, which accounted for 39% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also very good. The total flight distance was 32 nm, and the flight duration was 10 minutes, during which the aircraft used -2 lbs of fuel.
The Aermacchi MB-339NAT Al Fursan successfully landed at CYCK Chatham Kent Airport, showcasing a high level of proficiency in its flight operations. The aircraft approached the runway from the north east, aligning itself with the heading of 227.0° at an altitude of 94 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway.
Upon final approach, the pilot demonstrated excellent control, achieving a good threshold height and speed. The threshold height at 76 ft agl was well above the target, indicating a safe margin for the landing. The threshold speed of 360 kt was also maintained, showcasing the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed during the critical phase of landing.
As the aircraft touched down on the runway, it performed well, with a touchdown distance of 324 ft and a speed of 110 kt. The touchdown rate was smooth, at -113 fpm, indicating a controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, demonstrating the pilot's precision and control.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 67°F and a gentle wind of 3 kt at 224°. The crosswind was negligible, and the headwind was 3 kt, which did not pose any significant challenges to the landing.
The total landing distance of 1,769 ft was 39% of the runway length, indicating a safe and controlled landing. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control and stability during the post-landing phase.
Overall, the landing of the Aermacchi MB-339NAT Al Fursan at CYCK Chatham Kent Airport was a success, with the pilot demonstrating excellent skills and control throughout the flight. The aircraft's performance was impressive, and the landing was executed with precision and safety.
