Avoid steep turns at low altitude
Below a thousand feet the aeroplane is slow, heavy and close to the ground. A steep turn loses lift, raises the stall speed and flattens the climb just when the gradient matters most. A normal turn on course is a rate one — fifteen degrees or so, twenty-five at the outside, this penalty is to acknowledge when a turn has stopped being a turn and become a manoeuvre.

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 1,988 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,988 m of the 3,312 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 781 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Congratulations on achieving a commendable aircraft landing score of 95.4%! Your skills in the Approach Phase were exceptional, as evidenced by your excellent glideslope alignment. This is a crucial aspect of a successful landing, and your proficiency in this area deserves praise.
Moving on to the Landing Phase, while the threshold height was slightly above target, you executed a fair landing flare. It is important to ensure that the threshold height is always within the designated parameters, but your ability to manage the landing flare effectively is commendable.
In the Touchdown Phase, you displayed a smooth touchdown rate and maintained the correct speed, which is crucial for a safe and successful landing. However, it is noted that the touchdown point was 371 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, and the runway touchdown position was 1.6 meters from the centerline. These deviations are areas for improvement, but your overall performance in this phase was still solid.
It is important to highlight that you landed with a 6 knot tailwind, which is a significant factor that can affect the stability of the aircraft during landing. It is crucial to ensure that you always land with a headwind or a negligible tailwind for optimal safety.
Finally, in the Rollout Phase, your runway alignment was 3.9 meters from the centerline. While this may have presented some challenges in maintaining a straight path during rollout, your overall performance in this phase was still satisfactory.
Overall, your landing score of 95.4% reflects your strong piloting skills and ability to manage various aspects of the landing process. Keep up the good work and continue to focus on areas that require improvement to further enhance your landing proficiency. With dedication and practice, you will undoubtedly continue to excel in your future landings. Well done!
