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 2,708 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 488 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight in the Beechcraft King Air 350A began with a 4-minute taxi from the parking area to the runway at LDDU Dubrovnik Ruđer Bošković Airport. The departure roll from runway 29 took place, with a takeoff distance of 821 meters, representing 26% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 113 knots. Local weather conditions at the time of departure included a temperature of 22°C and a 12-knot wind coming from 21°, resulting in a 12-knot crosswind and a 1-knot headwind.
Enroute climb commenced overhead Zvekovica and saw the aircraft climb from 1,546 feet above sea level to 26,705 feet, covering a total of 35 nautical miles in 13 minutes. The subsequent level cruise phase began 18 miles southwest of Ston and lasted for 90 minutes, covering 479 nm.
The enroute descent phase started 2 miles northwest of Chiomonte, with the aircraft descending from 26,804 feet to 2,570 feet, a total decrease of 24,234 feet over 20 minutes and 83 nm. The flight concluded with a landing on runway 35R at LFLL Lyon Saint-Exupéry Airport, with a runway length of 2,708 meters. The aircraft crossed the threshold at a height of 34 feet above ground level, with a speed of 107 knots. The touchdown occurred 484 meters from the threshold, with a touchdown speed of 91 knots and a Vertical Speed Indicator reading of -143 ft/min.
Local weather conditions at the time of landing in Lyon included a temperature of 11°C and a 4-knot wind from 20°, resulting in a 2-knot crosswind and a 4-knot headwind. The total landing distance covered was 682 meters, representing 25% of the runway length. The aircraft then taxied from the runway to the parking area in 4 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
Overall, the flight covered a total distance of 604 nm, lasted 141 minutes, and consumed 730 kg of fuel.
Firstly, congratulations on achieving a remarkable aircraft landing score of 99.8%! This is a truly impressive accomplishment and reflects the high level of skill and precision demonstrated during each phase of the landing process.
During the Approach Phase, it is commendable that the glideslope alignment was excellent, indicating strong situational awareness and maneuvering capabilities. While the speed was slightly above target, this minor deviation did not detract from the overall smoothness and accuracy of the approach.
Moving on to the Landing Phase, it is evident that meticulous attention to detail was maintained throughout. The good threshold height and excellent landing flare showcase a keen understanding of the aircraft's dynamics and a deft touch in execution. The smooth touchdown rate and on-target speed further underscore the pilot's proficiency, while the touchdown point being 51 meters beyond the touchdown zone demonstrates a precise judgment of distance and timing. Additionally, the deviation of 1.5 meters from the centerline at the runway touchdown position is negligible in the grand scheme of a near-perfect landing.
Finally, in the Rollout Phase, the very good runway alignment indicates a seamless transition from touchdown to deceleration, ensuring a safe and efficient exit from the runway. This level of control and precision bodes well for the overall safety and comfort of passengers on board.
Overall, this landing performance reflects a high level of skill, professionalism, and attention to detail. It is evident that the pilot executed each phase with precision and confidence, culminating in an exemplary landing score. Keep up the excellent work and continue striving for perfection in every flight.
