Improve the rollout
A crosswind landing is a geometry problem. The air mass you're flying in is moving sideways across the runway, and you need your ground track down the centreline with your wheels aligned to it at the moment of contact. There are two techniques that will help, the crab and the sideslip.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,376 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 411 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Tecnam P2006T MKII aircraft departed from runway 08 at LIDR Ravenna Airport, covering a takeoff distance of 78 meters, which is 7% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 64 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 14 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 20 knots at 22 degrees.
As the aircraft began its enroute climb, it started from 1,016 feet above sea level and reached 1,416 feet in less than a minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. This initial climb phase was followed by a level cruise that lasted for 3 minutes and covered 7 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another climb phase, this time from 1,885 feet to 7,003 feet, an increase of 5,118 feet in 7 minutes, covering 13 nautical miles.
The aircraft continued to alternate between level cruise and climb phases, with notable climbs from 6,971 feet to 6,448 feet in 2 minutes, covering 4 nautical miles, and from 5,753 feet to 2,966 feet in 5 minutes, covering 10 nautical miles. The final descent phase began overhead Gradara, Italy, where the aircraft descended from 2,698 feet to 1,437 feet in 2 minutes, covering 4 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 31 at LIPR Federico Fellini International Airport was made from the south east, with a heading of 308.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,402 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown speed of 67 knots and a touchdown rate of -178 feet per minute. However, the touchdown point was 120 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 14.8 meters from the centerline.
The total landing distance was 688 meters, which is 29% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 23.1 meters from the centerline. The total flight distance was 78 nautical miles, taking 43 minutes, and the aircraft used 20 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Tecnam P2006T MKII aircraft successfully landed at LIPR Federico Fellini International Airport, achieving an overall score of 88.0%. The final approach to runway 31 was initiated from the south east, with a heading of 308.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,402 feet above ground level.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway, with a threshold speed that was well above the target at 80 knots. However, the touchdown point was located 120 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating a slight deviation from the intended landing spot. The touchdown speed of 67 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -178 feet per minute was also satisfactory.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 14°C and a wind speed of 22 knots from a direction of 20°. This resulted in a crosswind of 21 knots and a headwind of 7 knots. Despite these conditions, the pilot managed to maintain control of the aircraft and execute a safe landing.
However, there were some areas for improvement. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 14.8 meters from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was also off by 23.1 meters from the centerline. These deviations suggest that the pilot may have experienced some difficulty in aligning the aircraft with the runway during the landing process.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft coming to a stop within 688 meters of the runway, which is approximately 29% of the runway length. While there were some minor deviations from the intended landing spot, the pilot's skills and the aircraft's performance were sufficient to ensure a safe and controlled landing.
