Departure
Add power to maintain the target climb speed as you continue the climb.
What happened: Climb speed fell well below the target during the climb out, sagging during the initial climb.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: the target climb speed
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: seven 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. These checks are the approach's score.
At the 500 ft gate: no landing flap set, centreline 3.9° off, against a 1° limit and speed 62 kt FAST on the reference speed of 67 kt.

Plan view — the full 1,524 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 143 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone.
The rest of the report
Departing from Gimpo International Airport's runway 32R, the Cessna Skyhawk began its takeoff roll, accelerating down the 668-meter runway before lifting off at a speed of 71 knots. The aircraft's climb was smooth, with a steady increase in altitude from 356 feet above sea level to 1,903 feet in just 3 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles. The enroute climb phase started overhead the airport, with the aircraft continuing to ascend to a higher altitude.
As the flight progressed, the aircraft entered a series of level cruise phases, maintaining a steady altitude and airspeed. The first level cruise phase lasted 2 minutes, covering 1 nautical mile, while the second phase lasted 6 minutes, covering 13 nautical miles. The aircraft also experienced several descent phases, with the most significant decrease in altitude occurring from 1,523 feet above sea level to 851 feet in just 2 minutes, covering 3 nautical miles. The final approach to landing was initiated 2 miles south west of Hanam, with the aircraft descending from 690 feet above ground level to touch down at a speed of 88 knots, which was excessively fast. The touchdown rate was also heavy at -1,020 feet per minute.
The landing rollout was completed 2 miles south west of Hanam, with the aircraft coming to a stop at an altitude of 127 feet above sea level after traveling a distance of 115 meters. The total flight distance was 34 nautical miles, with the flight lasting 21 minutes and consuming no fuel. The local weather conditions during the flight were characterized by a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a light wind of 1 knot from 270 degrees, with a slight tailwind component during the landing phase.
The approach to landing ground 2 miles south west of Hanam (Gyeonggi-do, South Korea) was initiated from 1 nm at 690 ft agl, with the aircraft maintaining a stable descent throughout the final stages of the approach. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a steady rate of descent and a consistent airspeed. However, the touchdown speed of 88 kt was excessively fast, resulting in a very heavy touchdown rate of -1,020 fpm.
As the aircraft touched down 2 miles south west of Hanam (Gyeonggi-do, South Korea), it became apparent that the pilot had not fully arrested the descent, resulting in a significant bounce. The touchdown point was 274 m beyond the touchdown zone, indicating a loss of control during the initial stages of the rollout. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 16 °C and a wind of 1 kt at 265 °, did not significantly impact the approach or landing.
The landing rollout was conducted at an altitude of 127 ft asl, with a distance of 115 m covered before the aircraft came to a stop. The centreline alignment was satisfactory, with the aircraft remaining on the centreline throughout the rollout. Overall, the landing was considered to be below average, with a score of 53.1% awarded due to the excessively fast touchdown speed and the loss of control during the initial stages of the rollout.
