Arrival
Make small rudder corrections against a fixed point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline.
What happened: You drifted off the centreline on the approach.
Watch for: Runway centreline: tracked all the way to the threshold.
See Arrival Approach
Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

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.
At the 500 ft gate: centreline 4.9° off, against a 1° limit and wings 10° of bank, against a 10° limit.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,567 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 220 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Beechcraft Bonanza A36 departed KSEZ Sedona Airport on runway 21, applying a take-off roll of 903 m which represented 58 % of the available runway. Liftoff was achieved at 91 kt. Ambient conditions were 15 °C with a wind from 270° at 1 kt, providing a 1 kt head-wind component and a 1 kt cross-wind component.
Climb commenced one mile southwest of KSEZ, with the aircraft ascending from 5,231 ft asl to 5,656 ft asl, a gain of 425 ft. The climb was completed in 1 minute while covering 2 nm.
Level cruise began one mile south of KSEZ and continued for 3 minutes, during which the aircraft traversed 5 nm at a steady altitude.
The final approach to runway 21 was executed from the northeast, on a heading of 213.0° at a distance of 1 nm and an altitude of 782 ft agl.
Landing was performed on runway 21, whose total length is 1,561 m. The threshold speed was recorded at 71 kt, and touchdown occurred 212 m down the runway at 60 kt. The vertical speed at touchdown was minus 204 fpm and runway alignment was very good.
Rollout continued to a total landing distance of 628 m, representing 40 % of the runway, with rollout alignment described as very good.
In total the flight covered 10 nm, taking 6, and used minus 2 kg of fuel.
The Beechcraft Bonanza A36 entered the final approach to runway 21 at KSEZ Sedona Airport from the north-east on a heading of 213.0° at 1 NM and 782 ft AGL. Local conditions were 15 °C with a wind from 270° at 1 kt, providing a 1-kt headwind and a 1-kt crosswind.
At threshold the aircraft maintained a good height and a good threshold speed of 71 kt. The flare was executed within the parameters described.
Touchdown occurred 212 m down the runway at a good speed of 60 kt. The vertical rate was fair at minus 204 fpm and runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The rollout covered a total landing distance of 628 m, representing 40 % of the 1,561 m runway, and rollout alignment was very good.
Refine the flare to achieve a slightly reduced descent rate, targeting a vertical speed closer to the “good” range while preserving the current touchdown speed and alignment. This minor adjustment will help convert the fair rate rating to good without affecting the overall excellent performance reflected by the 99.5 % score.
