Speed on the fast side
Speed at this height is usually bought with gradient. It's rarely dangerous and it's often just an early acceleration, but with flaps still out you may be heading towards the flap limit and a flat fast climb puts you at the acceleration altitude with the cleaning-up still to do.

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 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,076 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 246 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight departed from Kiel-Holtenau Airport (EDHK) on runway 26, with a takeoff distance of 256 meters, which accounted for 20% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 94 knots, with a headwind component of 12 knots and a crosswind of 4 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 17 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 13 knots from a direction of 280 degrees.
As the aircraft climbed to its enroute altitude, it began to ascend from 1,092 feet above sea level to 42,547 feet, a vertical increase of 41,454 feet, in 17 minutes and covering a distance of 96 nautical miles. The enroute climb phase was followed by a level cruise, which started 4 miles east of Horsens, Denmark, and lasted for 23 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 312 nautical miles. The enroute descent phase began 17 miles south-east of Laerdalsoyri, Norway, and involved a descent from 42,012 feet to 1,337 feet above sea level, a vertical decrease of 40,676 feet, in 25 minutes and covering a distance of 130 nautical miles.
The final approach to Ålesund Airport, Vigra (ENAL) was conducted from the north-east, with a heading of 245.0 degrees, at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,288 feet above ground level. The aircraft landed on runway 24, with a touchdown distance of 246 meters, which was 33% of the runway length. The touchdown speed was 92 knots, and the touchdown rate was -16 feet per minute, indicating a perfect touchdown. The runway touchdown alignment was also very good. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 1 minute. The total flight distance was 545 nautical miles, and the flight used 93 kilograms of fuel, with a total flight time of 73 minutes.
The aircraft touched down on runway 24 at ENAL Ålesund Airport, Vigra, with a good threshold height, indicating a well-executed approach. The threshold speed of 101 kt was slightly below the target, but still within acceptable limits. The touchdown distance of 246 m was satisfactory, and the touchdown speed of 92 kt was also good, demonstrating a high degree of control and precision.
The touchdown rate of -16 fpm was perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, with the aircraft centered on the runway. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15 °C and a headwind of 16 kt, contributed to a stable and predictable approach. The crosswind component was minimal, at 1 kt, which further reduced the risk of deviation from the intended path.
The total landing distance of 687 m, which accounted for 33% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, with the aircraft maintaining its centerline alignment throughout the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was executed to a high standard, with a score of 98.0% reflecting the pilot's skill and attention to detail.
