Flight Score
Departure
Use coordinated aileron input to level the wings and hold bank angle close to wings-level during the climb.
What happened: During the initial climb, your average bank angle drifted to 2.6°.
Watch for: Attitude indicator, bank angle near wings-level
The rudder input is a changing profile through the roll rather than one that is held. So the demand on your right foot starts large at power application, eases as speed builds and the rudder gains authority, then jumps again at rotation.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 305 m and 152 m above the runway.

The rest of the report
This flight, operated by an FFX P180 II aircraft with the dynamic registration N9851, began at the LIEO Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport, where taxiing from the parking to the runway took approximately 18 minutes and covered a distance of 6 nautical miles.
As the aircraft departed runway 23, the takeoff distance covered 49% of the runway, with a total length of 1,188 meters. The liftoff speed was achieved at 130 knots, and the aircraft took off in the presence of local weather conditions, which included a temperature of 25°C and a wind velocity of 10 knots at a direction of 350°.
Following the takeoff, the enroute climb commenced just 1 mile southwest of the LIEO Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport, with the aircraft climbing from an altitude of 345 meters above sea level (asl) to 10,984 meters asl, an increase of 10,639.3 meters in 32 minutes, covering a distance of 100 nautical miles.
The aircraft then transitioned into level cruise, starting approximately 18 miles south of Marina di Campo, Italy. This cruise segment lasted 34 minutes, covering a distance of 160 nautical miles.
As the aircraft continued on its route, another descent took place, started 1 mile southwest of Melara, Italy, where the aircraft descended from 10,864 meters asl to 10,422 meters asl, a decrease of 441.9 meters, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles.
Further, the aircraft entered another level cruise segment, which started 2 miles north of Ostiglia, Italy, and lasted for 9 minutes, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
Next, a significant descent took place, started 2 miles north of Ostiglia, Italy, where the aircraft descended from 10,422 meters asl to 580 meters asl, a decrease of 9,843.0 meters, covering a distance of 79 nautical miles in 21 minutes.
Upon approaching the LIPB Bolzano Airport from the south, the aircraft performed a final approach to runway 01 at a heading of 9.0° and an altitude of 333.5 meters above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 01 at LIPB Bolzano Airport, a runway with a length of 1,228 meters. The touchdown distance was measured at 423 meters, and the touchdown speed was 111 knots. However, the threshold speed, which was slightly above target at 121 knots, and the touchdown rate, which was at -1.3 meters per second, were not as expected.
Moreover, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 4.2 meters. The local weather conditions at the time of landing included a temperature of 20°C and a wind velocity of 1 knot at a direction of 180°, with an additional crosswind of 0 knots and a tailwind of 1 knot.
After landing, the aircraft rolled for a distance of 856 meters, which was 70% of the runway length, with very good runway rollout alignment.
Taxiing from the runway to the parking took approximately 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
Overall, this flight utilized 465 kilograms of fuel, covering a total distance of 354 nautical miles and lasting 100 minutes.
Aircraft N9851, a P180 II, successfully landed at LIPB Bolzano Airport with a final score of 98.3%. The aircraft initiated its final approach from the south, heading at an angle of 9.0 ° and at an altitude of 333.5 meters above ground level (agl), approximately 2 nautical miles from the runway.
As the aircraft descended, it aligned itself with the runway, which had a length of 1,228 meters. The threshold height, at 17.5 meters agl, was slightly higher than the target height, indicating a small initial descent. At this point, the aircraft was expected to be traveling at a speed of 121 knots.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed within a relatively short distance of 423 meters, with a touchdown speed of 111 knots. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -1.3 meters per second, which could indicate a slightly rough landing.
The aircraft's position on the runway was not perfectly aligned with the centerline, as it strayed by 4.2 meters. This alignment issue became apparent after touchdown, during the rollout phase.
Weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 20 °C and wind speeds of 1 knot from an easterly direction. The negligible wind velocity significantly reduced any crosswind or tailwind effects, making the landing conditions easier to manage.
The total landing distance covered by the aircraft was 856 meters, which accounted for approximately 70% of the runway length. Despite the initial misalignment, the runway rollout alignment was very good, showing a high level of control and pilot precision during this critical phase of the landing.
