Track the centreline on final
See Arrival Final 1
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.

From brake release to the end of the climb, against time, then the takeoff point by point.
Lifted off at 91 kt with 4.9° of pitch.
Two traces from brake release: the airspeed on top, and below it the pitch, which is how far the nose is above the horizon. The figure at liftoff is the pitch then. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, the part of the climb scored on holding the climb speed.
The takeoff, point by point
Side view from the start of the roll to the end of Climb 3 at 962 ft. The distance scale changes past the runway end.
Reached 35 ft with 453 m of runway left; then climbing at 1,140 fpm on average to 962 ft.
The takeoff from the side: the height above the runway against the distance along it. The numbers along the runway are the speeds reached at each point. Lifting off in the amber last quarter of the runway costs marks for the roll length. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, scored on its average speed against the target.
Plan view the roll down the 952 m runway.
Rolled from the start of the runway, drifted 4 m left of the centreline and was back on it to lift off. Airborne 34 % of the way down the runway, before the 75 % line.
The roll from above, with your left at the top. The line is where the wheels went, and "widest" is the furthest you drifted off the centreline. Lifting off before the amber 75 % line gets full marks for the roll length. The arrow beside the runway is the crosswind, pointing the way the air was moving, so it pushed the aircraft that way.
Over the threshold
Touchdown
Very good landing flare
Little crosswind (2 kt): nothing to correct for. Touched down straight, wings level.
Wind 270° at 3 kt · 1 kt tail · 2 kt across
The wind is the one recorded at the landing, split along the runway (headwind or tailwind) and across it. To hold the centreline in a crosswind the nose points a little into wind - the crab - and is straightened with rudder just before the wheels touch, often with the into-wind wing lowered to stop the drift. These are the nose against the direction you were actually moving, and the wings, at the moment of touchdown. Shown for reading; not marked.
From 85 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 15 s, an average deceleration of 0.20 g.
Your ground speed from the moment the wheels touched until you were down to taxi speed, against the distance rolled. A steep line is hard braking, a shallow one a long, gentle roll. For scale, an airliner's lowest autobrake setting decelerates at about 0.15 g, a medium one about 0.3 g. Shown for reading; not marked.
Side view — the last 952 m of the approach.
Crossed the threshold at 9 ft, 41 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 295 m in, close to the ideal 305 m.
The last stretch of the approach and the touchdown, from the side. The height is stretched so that the last few feet show: 80 ft top to bottom, against 952 m across. The dashed line is the ideal, 50 ft over the threshold and down 305 m in. The flare ring is where you began raising the nose, and "descent slowed" is where the sink came off; the figures beside them are the sink rate, pitch and speed at that point.
Sink and pitch — through the flare, lined up with the side view.
The sink went from 250 fpm at 8 ft to 150 fpm at touchdown. The pitch barely changed.
Lined up with the side view above, so a point on one sits under the same point of the other. On top, how fast you were coming down: 0 is level, and −600 is 600 ft a minute down. Below, the pitch. In a flare the nose comes up and the descent slows towards 0. The figure at the touchdown line is your touchdown rate.
Plan view — the full 952 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down on the centreline and drifted to 11 m right on the rollout.
The runway from above, with your left at the top. Touching down inside the green bracket scores full marks for the distance. The shaded part is the rollout, up to where it ended. The arrow beside the runway is the crosswind, pointing the way the air was moving, so it pushed the aircraft that way.
The 295 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 area to the runway, which took approximately 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 16 at LIRJ Marina Di Campo Airport, with a takeoff distance of 337 meters, which accounted for 35% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 91 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 10°C, with a wind speed of 14 knots blowing from 144°. This resulted in a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 13 knots. The aircraft climbed from an initial altitude of 1,001 feet above sea level to 2,686 feet, an increase of 1,684 feet, in just 4 minutes and covering a distance of 9 nautical miles.
The enroute climb phase was followed by a level cruise, which started 3 miles south east of Porto Azzurro and lasted for 9 minutes, covering a distance of 16 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent from 2,623 feet above sea level to 1,205 feet, a decrease of 1,418 feet, in just 2 minutes and covering a distance of 4 nautical miles. The descent phase was followed by another level cruise, which started 3 miles north west of Marciana Marina and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 16 at LIRJ Marina Di Campo Airport was made from the north, with a heading of 150.0° and at an altitude of 1,267 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown distance of 295 meters and a touchdown speed of 82 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown rate was smooth at -148 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 15°C, with a wind speed of 3 knots blowing from 270°. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a tailwind of 1 knot. The total landing distance was 665 meters, which accounted for 70% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good, and the aircraft was able to taxi to the parking area in less than 1 minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 38 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 23 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 48 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
