Flight Score
Departure
Use smoother, smaller aileron inputs to keep the wings level and hold bank angle near wings-level during the climb.
What happened: During the climb, bank angle rose to 2.2°, more roll than the climb out called for.
Watch for: Attitude indicator: wings level during the climb
Arrival
Add power on final to hold 69 kt across the threshold.
What happened: The aircraft crossed the threshold at 55 kt, 14 kt below VREF, and low energy like this usually carries through to a firm touchdown at 318 fpm.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 69 kt at the threshold
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: no landing flap set, wings 14° of bank, against a 10° limit and speed 65 kt FAST on the reference speed of 69 kt.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 612 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 612 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 11 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Kodiak 100 departed AYFE Feramin Airport from runway 30, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 67 kt. The takeoff run measured 347 m, representing 57 % of the available runway, and the aircraft lifted off under a temperature of 22 °C with a wind of 5 kt from 235°, including a 5 kt cross-wind component and a 2 kt head-wind component.
Climb commenced immediately after departure, beginning overhead the airport. The aircraft rose from 4,793 ft asl to 7,005 ft asl, a gain of 2,212 ft achieved in 3 minutes while covering 6 nm.
Descent was initiated 4 miles south-west of AYTE Telefomin, beginning at 7,018 ft asl and ending at 5,211 ft asl. The altitude loss of 1,808 ft occurred over 3 minutes and spanned 7 nm.
During the final approach to runway 12 at AYFE Feramin Airport, the aircraft descended from 756 ft agl to -23 ft agl in 62 seconds and met the stabilisation gate criteria.
Landing on runway 12, which is 612 m long, was executed with a touchdown distance of 11 m and a touchdown speed of 54 kt. The aircraft touched down with a firm rate of minus 318 fpm, and alignment on touchdown was reported as very good. Local conditions were again 22 °C, wind 5 kt from 235°, with a 5 kt cross-wind and a 2 kt tail-wind component.
The rollout covered a total landing distance of 271 m, equal to 44 % of the runway, and runway-rollout alignment was described as very good.
In total, the flight covered 15 nm, took 7 (unspecified units) and consumed 15 kg of fuel.
