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 2,490 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 356 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Black Square Commander 114 N1107L taxied from the parking area to runway 23 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde; the taxi-out required 33 minutes and covered 3 nm.

Climb began overhead Donderen in the province of Drenthe, Netherlands, with the aircraft ascending from 946 ft asl to 2,089 ft asl, an increase of 1,143 ft in 2 minutes while covering 3 nm.
Level cruise was established 1 mile southeast of Yde, province Drenthe, and persisted for 9 minutes, covering 21 nm.
Final approach to runway 23 was established from the northeast on a heading of 234.0° at 4 nm and 1,245 ft agl.
Landing was executed on runway 23, which is 2,493 m long; the threshold speed was 84 kt. Touchdown occurred 359 m from the threshold at 64 kt with a descent rate of minus 84 fpm, and runway touchdown alignment was perfect. Local weather at the time indicated a temperature of 20 °C, wind 3 kt from 228°, with 0 kt crosswind and a 3 kt headwind.
Total landing distance measured 631 m, representing 25 % of the runway, and rollout alignment remained perfect.
The flight covered a total of 33 nm, took 22, and used 33 kg of fuel.
The aircraft Black Square Commander 114 N1107L established a final approach to runway 23 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde from the north-east, tracking a heading of 234.0° at 4 nm and 1,245 ft agl. The approach was conducted with a threshold speed of 84 kt, a good threshold height, and local weather of 20 °C, wind 3 kt from 228°, crosswind 0 kt and headwind 3 kt.
During the threshold and flare phase the aircraft achieved a touchdown distance of 359 m, a touchdown speed of 64 kt and a touchdown rate of -84 fpm, with runway touchdown alignment described as perfect.
Touchdown occurred at the indicated 359 m from the threshold, maintaining the 64 kt speed and -84 fpm descent rate, and the aircraft remained perfectly aligned with the runway centreline.
The rollout covered a total landing distance of 631 m, representing 25 % of the 2,493 m runway, and runway rollout alignment was perfect.
With a final score of 99.9 %, the landing was exemplary; continue to monitor the touchdown point to keep it consistently within the 300-400 m aim-point window and verify the rate of descent remains in the excellent range demonstrated.
