Two stabilised approach gates, each with five checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 1,000 ft gate: sink rate above what the glideslope needed and off the runway's 3° glideslope.

Side view — the last 1,366 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 1,366 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 251 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 10 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, an RJ85, then departed from runway 23L at Manchester Airport (EGCC), with a takeoff distance of 1,089 meters, which was 38% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 137 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions of a temperature of 15°C and winds of 4 knots at 260°. The crosswind was 2 knots, and the headwind was 3 knots.

The final approach to runway 11 at Antwerp International Airport (EBAW) in Deurne was from the west, with a heading of 112.0° at 3 nautical miles and 1,724 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 11 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 252 meters, a touchdown speed of 105 knots, and a smooth touchdown rate of -147 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the local weather conditions were a temperature of 15°C and winds of 7 knots at 30°.
The total landing distance was 708 meters, which was 52% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing to the parking from the runway took 5 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 307 nautical miles, taking 71 minutes, and the aircraft used 2,172 kilograms of fuel.
The RJ85 aircraft successfully landed at EBAW Antwerp International Airport (Deurne) with a score of 98.3%. The final approach was conducted from the west, heading 112.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,724 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 11, which has a length of 1,366 meters.
The threshold height was reported as good, and the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 111 knots. The touchdown distance was also good, measuring 252 meters. The touchdown speed of 105 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate was smooth at -147 feet per minute (fpm). The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 7 knots at 30°. The crosswind component was 7 knots, while the headwind component was 1 knot. These conditions did not appear to have any significant impact on the landing.
The total landing distance was 708 meters, which is 52% of the runway length. This indicates that the aircraft was able to stop within a reasonable distance after touchdown. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, suggesting that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft was able to touch down safely on the runway. The score of 98.3% reflects the high level of proficiency demonstrated by the pilot during the landing.
