Flight Score
Departure
Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.
What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 4.8 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate for a circuit: seven checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate is an instrument-approach check and does not apply.
At the 1,000 ft gate: gear still up.
At the 500 ft gate: gear still up.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 4,001 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 848 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a departure roll from runway 34 at UBBB Heydar Aliyev International Airport. The SR22 aircraft accelerated down the runway, covering a distance of 209 meters, which accounted for just 5% of the runway's total length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 78 knots, marking the start of the aircraft's ascent into the sky.
As the aircraft entered the local weather conditions, it was clear that the temperature was a chilly 11 degrees Celsius. The wind was blowing at a moderate 5 knots from a direction of 340 degrees, resulting in a headwind of 5 knots and a negligible crosswind of just 1 knot. These conditions presented a relatively straightforward departure from the airport.
The pilot then initiated a left-hand pattern entry from runway 34, navigating the aircraft through a series of turns and maneuvers. The distance covered during the pattern entry was less than 1 nautical mile, achieved in a remarkably short time of 17 seconds. As the aircraft continued through the pattern, it encountered a crosswind of 7 knots from the same direction as the original wind, which required the pilot to make adjustments to maintain control.
The pattern downwind turn was a significant segment of the flight, with the aircraft covering a distance of 10 nautical miles while turning at an angle of 114.2 degrees relative to the runway. This was followed by a downwind leg, during which the aircraft traveled 2 nautical miles in just 44 seconds. The base leg was the next phase, with the aircraft covering 8 nautical miles in 182 seconds. The final turn brought the aircraft back onto the approach path, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles in 128 seconds.
As the aircraft began its final approach to runway 34, it was flying at an altitude of 1,019 feet above ground level (agl) and heading 347.0 degrees. The pilot then initiated the landing sequence, bringing the aircraft down onto the runway at a speed of 87 knots, which was slightly above the target speed. The touchdown point was located 407 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was a respectable 61 knots.
The landing distance covered by the aircraft was 1,101 meters, which accounted for just 28% of the runway's total length. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline, by 8.5 meters. The local weather conditions remained relatively consistent, with a temperature of 11 degrees Celsius and a wind blowing at 7 knots from the same direction as before.
The post-landing rollout was also notable, with the aircraft's alignment slightly off from the centerline by 10.6 meters. Despite these minor deviations, the pilot managed to bring the aircraft to a stop in a relatively short distance, using a total of 10 kilograms of fuel during the flight. The total flight distance was 31 nautical miles, which was covered in a time of 14 minutes.
The aircraft in question, a SR22, successfully landed at UBBB Heydar Aliyev International Airport, scoring an overall grade of 85.5%. The final approach to runway 34 was initiated from the south, with the aircraft heading 347.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,019 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway, with the touchdown point located 407 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone. The touchdown speed of 61 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -55 feet per minute (fpm) was considered excellent. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 8.5 meters.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 11°C, with a wind speed of 7 knots blowing from 340°. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 7 knots. The aircraft's performance in these conditions was satisfactory, with the touchdown speed and rate being within acceptable limits.
The total landing distance of 1,101 meters was 28% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 10.6 meters, indicating that the pilot may have experienced some difficulty in maintaining a straight course during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft scoring a high grade of 85.5%. However, there were some minor issues with the touchdown position and runway rollout alignment, which may require attention from the pilot to improve their performance in future landings.
