Hold the approach angle
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: five 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.
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,454 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 602 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the SR22 aircraft taxiing from the parking area to the runway at UGAM Ambrolauri Airport, a process that took 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 11, and the takeoff distance was 471 meters, which accounted for 44% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 77 knots.
As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions of 22°C temperature and a wind speed of 4 knots at 170 degrees. The crosswind was 4 knots, and the headwind was 2 knots. The enroute climb started overhead Ambrolauri, where the aircraft ascended from 2,156 feet above sea level to 6,119 feet, an increase of 3,963 feet in 4 minutes, covering a distance of 7 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began 4 miles northeast of T'q'ibuli, lasting 2 minutes and covering 4 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its descent from 5,778 feet above sea level to 4,499 feet, a decrease of 1,279 feet in 2 minutes, covering 5 nautical miles. Another level cruise started 4 miles southwest of T'q'ibuli, lasting 2 minutes and covering 5 nautical miles.
The enroute descent began 6 miles east of Kutaisi, where the aircraft descended from 4,485 feet above sea level to 1,228 feet, a decrease of 3,257 feet in 3 minutes, covering 7 nautical miles. Another level cruise started 4 miles south of Kutaisi, lasting 3 minutes and covering 5 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 25 at UGKO David the Builder Kutaisi International Airport was made from the east, heading 260.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,057 feet above ground level. The landing took place on runway 25, which had a length of 2,454 meters. The threshold height was slightly above the target, and the threshold speed was also slightly above the target at 86 knots.
The touchdown point was 179 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 68 knots and a smooth touchdown rate of -104 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 9.2 meters from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 28°C temperature and a wind speed of 4 knots at 289 degrees, with a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 4 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,103 meters, accounting for 45% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 9.2 meters from the centreline. The total flight distance was 37 nautical miles, taking 20 minutes, and the aircraft used 15 kilograms of fuel.
The SR22 aircraft successfully landed at UGKO David the Builder Kutaisi International Airport, with a score of 87.9%. The final approach to runway 25 was initiated from the east, heading 260.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,057 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach was characterized by a slightly above-target threshold height of 58 feet agl and a slightly above-target threshold speed of 86 knots.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 179 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 68 knots, which was considered good. The touchdown rate was also smooth, at -104 feet per minute (fpm). However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 9.2 meters from the centerline, indicating a slight deviation from the intended path.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 28°C and a wind speed of 4 knots at 289°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, while the headwind component was 4 knots. These conditions likely contributed to a relatively smooth landing.
The total landing distance was 1,103 meters, which accounted for 45% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 9.2 meters from the centerline, similar to the touchdown position. Despite these minor deviations, the overall landing performance of the SR22 aircraft was satisfactory, with a score of 87.9%.
