Flight Score
Settle the descent rate
Next time
Reduce power earlier on final to bring threshold speed back to 104 kt.
What happened: You crossed the threshold at 127 kt against a target of 104 kt, and touchdown ended up well past the normal point. Carrying excess threshold speed usually carries the touchdown long as the aircraft floats before settling.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator, targeting 104 kt at the threshold.
Departure
Hold the nose until reaching 126 kt before rotating.
What happened: Rotation began at 117 kt, 9 kt before the 126 kt target.
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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
At the 500 ft gate: sink rate 1,414 fpm, more than the glideslope needed, glideslope 1.4° against the runway's 3° and centreline 1.2° off, against a 1° limit.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,525 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,525 m of the 3,335 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 671 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from EDDH Hamburg Helmut Schmidt Airport, the Skyward C680 D-CAWS began its journey with a taxiing period of 11 minutes, covering 2 nautical miles to reach the runway. The aircraft then took off from runway 23, utilizing 481 meters, or 16% of the runway, to achieve liftoff at a speed of 118 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 19°C, with a wind speed of 7 knots at 254°, resulting in a 3-knot crosswind and a 6-knot headwind.
As the aircraft climbed to cruising altitude, it underwent several phases of ascent and descent. The initial enroute climb from 976 feet above sea level to 10,585 feet above sea level, an increase of 9,609 feet, was completed in 2 minutes and covered 7 nautical miles. The aircraft then began a series of level cruises, with the longest lasting 16 minutes and covering 134 nautical miles. The descent phases were also notable, with the most significant decrease in altitude occurring from 34,933 feet above sea level to 10,059 feet above sea level, a decrease of 24,875 feet, in 5 minutes and covering 37 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 25 at EDDS Stuttgart Airport was initiated from the east, with the aircraft descending from 1,135 feet above ground level to touch down on the runway. The landing was successful, with a touchdown point 254 meters beyond the touchdown zone and a touchdown speed of 107 knots. The total landing distance was 1,444 meters, or 43% of the runway. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, completing the flight with a total distance of 327 nautical miles and a fuel consumption of 953 kilograms. The flight duration was 65 minutes.
The final approach to runway 25 at EDDS Stuttgart Airport from the east was executed with precision, with the aircraft descending from an altitude of 1,135 ft agl at 4 nm from the runway threshold. The approach quality was excellent, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 127 kt, indicating a well-controlled descent. The aircraft touched down 254 m beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 107 kt, which was slightly above the optimal range but still within acceptable limits.
The touchdown characteristics were impressive, with a perfect touchdown rate of -3 fpm, indicating a smooth and controlled touchdown. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, with the aircraft aligned closely with the centreline. However, the rollout phase was marred by a slight misalignment, with the aircraft deviating 17.8 m from the centreline. Despite this, the total landing distance of 1,444 m, which accounted for 43% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits.
The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 27 °C and a gentle wind of 6 kt at 290 °, contributed to a relatively straightforward landing. The crosswind component of 4 kt and the headwind component of 5 kt were well within manageable limits. Overall, the landing was scored 90.8%, reflecting a high level of proficiency and control throughout the approach, touchdown, and rollout phases.
