Flight Score
Departure
Level the wings with coordinated aileron to hold bank angle near zero during the initial climb, starting from 2.7°.
What happened: Bank angle was elevated during the initial climb and excess bank usually persists into the second climb segment.
Watch for: Attitude indicator, wings level with bank angle near zero degrees.
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.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 1,000 ft gate: speed below the reference speed.
At the 500 ft gate: speed below the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 741 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 741 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 90 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 9 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a DA42-TDI, then departed from runway 08 at KBUR Hollywood Burbank Airport. The takeoff distance was 421 meters, which accounted for 24% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 73 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 24 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 3 knots from a direction of 179 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 0 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile northwest of Burbank, California. The climb took 4 minutes and covered a distance of 6 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 1,658 feet above sea level to 5,452 feet above sea level, an increase of 3,794 feet.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, starting 2 miles southwest of La Canada Flintridge, California. This phase lasted for 5 minutes and covered a distance of 14 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting overhead Avocado Heights, California. The descent took 3 minutes and covered a distance of 6 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from an altitude of 5,071 feet above sea level to 1,858 feet above sea level, a decrease of 3,213 feet.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting 1 mile west of La Mirada, California. This phase lasted for 3 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting 1 mile southeast of Norwalk, California. The descent took 2 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from an altitude of 1,624 feet above sea level to 833 feet above sea level, a decrease of 791 feet.
The final approach to runway 06 at KFUL Fullerton Municipal Airport was made from the west, with a heading of 79.0 degrees at an altitude of 740 feet above ground level and a distance of 3 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was made on runway 06, which had a length of 741 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 67 knots.
The touchdown distance was good at 88 meters, and the touchdown speed was 63 knots, which was good. The touchdown rate was perfect at -38 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 24 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 3 knots from a direction of 180 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 3 knots and a tailwind of 1 knot.
The total landing distance was 345 meters, which accounted for 47% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took less than 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 37 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 26 minutes. The aircraft used 11 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The DA42-TDI aircraft successfully landed at KFUL Fullerton Municipal Airport, achieving a high score of 99.6%. The final approach was conducted from the west, heading 79.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 740 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft landed on runway 06, which has a length of 741 meters.
The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway threshold. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 67 knots. Despite this, the touchdown distance was good at 88 meters, and the touchdown speed of 63 knots was also within acceptable limits.
The touchdown rate of -38 feet per minute (fpm) was perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, suggesting that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 24°C and a wind speed of 3 knots from 180°. The crosswind component was 3 knots, while the tailwind component was 1 knot. These conditions did not appear to have a significant impact on the landing.
The total landing distance was 345 meters, which is 47% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft was able to touch down and come to a stop in a relatively short distance. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, suggesting that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft was able to touch down and come to a stop in a controlled and efficient manner.
