Improve the touchdown
There are several things that can go wrong during the flare, carrying too much speed over the threshold, starting the flare at the wrong height and inconsistent flight control inputs, all contribute to a poor flare resulting in a hard touchdown or a float down the runway.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,040 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 1,040 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 221 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from LIPB Bolzano Airport, the aircraft initiated its takeoff roll on runway 01, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 90 kt in 391 meters, which represented 32% of the runway's length. The local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 20 °C, with a wind of 15 kt at 359°, resulting in a 3 kt crosswind and a 15 kt headwind.
As the aircraft transitioned to the enroute phase, it began a climb from 1,836 ft asl to 17,434 ft asl, an increase of 15,598 ft in 10 minutes, covering 24 nm. This was followed by a brief level cruise phase, lasting 3 minutes and covering 12 nm, before initiating another climb from 17,442 ft asl to 23,285 ft asl, an increase of 5,843 ft in 5 minutes, covering 18 nm. The aircraft then entered a prolonged level cruise phase, lasting 29 minutes and covering 118 nm, before commencing its descent from 23,254 ft asl to 4,852 ft asl, a decrease of 18,402 ft in 14 minutes, covering 54 nm. The aircraft continued to descend, reaching 1,832 ft asl in 5 minutes, covering 14 nm, before entering a final level cruise phase, lasting 3 minutes and covering 7 nm.
As the aircraft approached EDTF Freiburg im Breisgau Airfield, it initiated its final approach to runway 34 from the south, aligning with the runway at 1 nm and 299 ft agl. The landing was successful, with a touchdown distance of 221 m, a touchdown speed of 79 kt, and a touchdown rate of -189 fpm. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.7 m from the centreline. The total landing distance was 639 m, representing 72% of the runway's length. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, covering less than 1 nm in 2 minutes. The total flight distance was 263 nm, with a total flight time of 81 minutes and a fuel consumption of 176 kg.
The aircraft touched down on runway 34 at EDTF Freiburg im Breisgau Airfield with a good threshold height, indicating a well-executed approach. The threshold speed of 87 kt was within acceptable limits, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage airspeed during the final stages of the approach. The touchdown distance of 221 m was also satisfactory, indicating a controlled descent and a good flare.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed of 79 kt was within the desired range, and the rate of descent of -189 fpm was consistent with a smooth touchdown. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.7 m from the centreline, which may be attributed to a minor deviation in the approach path. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 11 °C and a headwind of 7 kt, did not appear to significantly impact the landing.
The total landing distance of 639 m, which accounted for 72% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating a high degree of control and precision during the post-landing phase. Overall, the landing was scored 98.2%, reflecting a high level of proficiency and adherence to standard operating procedures.
