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.
One stabilised approach gate: seven 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. These checks are the approach's score.
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 421 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Groningen Airport Eelde, runway 23, the Phenom 300E began its takeoff roll, accelerating down the 1,748-meter runway, which was utilized at 70% of its length. At a liftoff speed of 132 knots, the aircraft lifted off the ground, clearing the obstacles surrounding the airport. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 16°C and a gentle wind of 1 knot from 270 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind component.
As the aircraft climbed to a safe altitude, it transitioned into the enroute climb phase, which began overhead Donderen. The Phenom 300E efficiently climbed from 952 feet above sea level to 3,087 feet, an increase of 2,135 feet in just 1 minute, while covering a distance of 4 nautical miles. The aircraft then leveled off and entered a cruise phase, which lasted for 2 minutes and covered 7 nautical miles. This was followed by a descent phase, initiated 2 miles west of Groningen, where the aircraft descended from 2,951 feet to 2,467 feet, a decrease of 484 feet in 2 minutes, while covering 6 nautical miles. The Phenom 300E then leveled off again, this time overhead Thesinge, and entered another cruise phase, which lasted for 4 minutes and covered 12 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached the final approach phase, it began its descent from 1,786 feet above ground level, heading towards runway 23 at Groningen Airport Eelde from the north-east. The Phenom 300E touched down on the runway at a speed of 90 knots, with a smooth touchdown rate of -144 feet per minute. The total landing distance was 939 meters, which was 38% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, and the aircraft came to a stop without any issues. The total flight distance was 34 nautical miles, and the aircraft used 49 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The final approach to runway 23 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde was executed from the north east, heading 233.0° at 3 nautical miles and 1,786 feet above ground level. The approach quality was excellent, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 101 knots, well within the acceptable range. The aircraft maintained a steady descent, touching down at a speed of 90 knots, which was also within the desired parameters.
The touchdown characteristics were smooth, with a rate of -144 feet per minute, indicating a controlled and gentle touchdown. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, with the aircraft centered on the runway centerline. The touchdown distance of 425 meters was also good, indicating a well-executed landing. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 16°C and a light wind of 1 knot from 270°, contributed to a stable and predictable approach.
The rollout phase was equally impressive, with the aircraft maintaining perfect alignment on the runway centerline. The total landing distance of 939 meters, which accounted for 38% of the runway length, was well within the acceptable range. Overall, the landing was scored 98.8%, reflecting the high level of proficiency and control demonstrated by the pilot throughout the approach, touchdown, and rollout phases.
