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.

The rest of the report
The Kodiak 100 departed EGBP Cotswold Airport from runway 26, applying a take-off roll of 635 m which represented 36 % of the available runway. Liftoff was achieved at 88 kt. Ambient conditions were 15 °C with a wind from 270° at 2 kt; the crosswind component was 0 kt and the headwind component was 2 kt.
Climb commenced one mile west of the airport near Kemble, Gloucestershire, England. The aircraft ascended from 1,124 ft asl to 909 ft asl, an increase of 215 ft, over a period of 1 minute while covering 1 nm.
Level cruise began one mile north-west of Crudwell, Wiltshire, England. The cruise segment lasted 3 minutes and encompassed a distance of 4 nm.
For the approach and landing the aircraft used runway 08 at EGBP Cotswold Airport, whose length is 1,800 m. The threshold speed was slightly below the target at 63 kt. Touchdown occurred at 276 m down the runway with a speed of 56 kt and a vertical rate of -107 fpm. Alignment on touchdown was reported as perfect. Weather at the time mirrored departure conditions: 15 °C, wind 2 kt from 270°, crosswind 0 kt and a tailwind component of 2 kt. The total landing distance recorded was 510 m, representing 28 % of the runway.
Runway rollout was described as very good, with the aircraft remaining aligned throughout the deceleration phase.
In total the flight covered 6 nm, took 5 minutes, and consumed 9 kg of fuel.
The Kodiak 100 approached runway 08 at EGBP Cotswold Airport in temperature 15 °C with a wind of 2 kt from 270 °, crosswind 0 kt and tailwind 2 kt, aligning with the centreline for landing.
The threshold height was good and the threshold speed was slightly below target at 63 kt as the aircraft entered the flare.
Touchdown occurred 276 m down the runway at a speed of 56 kt, both described as good; the vertical rate was smooth at minus 107 fpm and runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The aircraft rolled out over a total landing distance of 510 m, 28 % of the 1,800 m runway, and runway rollout alignment was very good.
Reduce the approach speed slightly to meet the target threshold speed while preserving the current precise alignment and touchdown point. Maintaining the present flare technique will continue to produce smooth vertical rates. The 95.6 % score confirms overall proficiency.
