Flight Score
Departure
Apply small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline during the roll.
What happened: The aircraft tracked 12 m off the runway centreline during the ground roll, and flights with this pattern usually carry extra bank, around 4°, into the first climb.
Watch for: Heading indicator: wings level, tracking the runway centreline
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.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 1,000 ft gate: gear still up and off the centreline.
At the 500 ft gate: off the centreline.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,896 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 293 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 17 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a PC-12, then departed from runway 35 at UBBB Heydar Aliyev International Airport in Baku, Azerbaijan. The takeoff distance was 732 meters, which accounted for 22% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 92 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 10 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 14 knots blowing from 319 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 9 knots and a headwind of 11 knots. The aircraft began its enroute climb 1 mile northeast of the airport, rising from an altitude of 1,033 feet above sea level to 19,029 feet above sea level, an increase of 17,996 feet in 11 minutes, covering a distance of 17 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 2 miles northeast of Sumqayit, Azerbaijan, and lasted for 43 minutes, covering a distance of 150 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 7 miles south of Faldarli, Azerbaijan, descending from 18,768 feet above sea level to 3,801 feet above sea level, a decrease of 14,967 feet in 18 minutes, covering a distance of 65 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise was restarted 4 miles north of Gardabani, Georgia, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 6 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 31L at UGGG Lochini was made from the southeast, heading 315.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,494 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 31L, which had a length of 2,896 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 82 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 278 meters, and the touchdown speed was 73 knots, which was also good. The touchdown rate was excellent at -57 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 4 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 12 knots blowing from 299 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 11 knots. The total landing distance was 692 meters, which accounted for 24% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 246 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 85 minutes. The aircraft used 310 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The PC-12 aircraft successfully landed on runway 31L at UGGG Lochini, achieving a score of 98.5%. The final approach was conducted from the south east, heading 315.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,494 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated good control and precision during the approach, ultimately landing safely on the runway.
The landing was characterized by a good threshold height, indicating that the aircraft was properly configured for landing. The threshold speed of 82 knots was also within acceptable limits, suggesting that the pilot had maintained a safe and controlled approach. The touchdown distance of 278 meters was also good, indicating that the pilot had managed to slow the aircraft down effectively before touching down on the runway.
The touchdown speed of 73 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -57 feet per minute (fpm) was excellent, indicating that the pilot had maintained a smooth and controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to accurately control the aircraft's position and direction during the landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 4°C and a wind speed of 12 knots from 299°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the headwind component was 11 knots. These conditions presented a moderate challenge for the pilot, but the aircraft's performance and the pilot's skills were sufficient to overcome them.
The total landing distance of 692 meters was 24% of the runway length, indicating that the pilot had managed to slow the aircraft down effectively and maintain control during the rollout. The runway rollout alignment was very good, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control and direction of the aircraft during the critical phase of the landing.
Overall, the landing was a success, with the pilot demonstrating excellent skills and control throughout the approach, landing, and rollout phases. The aircraft's performance was also satisfactory, and the landing was completed safely and efficiently.
