Flight Score
Departure
Raise the gear lever promptly once a positive climb is confirmed, before reaching the target retraction height.
What happened: Gear retraction was delayed, with the gear not coming up until 773 ft agl.
Watch for: Landing gear: up by the normal retraction gate
Arrival
Begin the flare with progressive back pressure and keep it coming until the sink is arrested, rather than flying it on flat.
What happened: The nose was barely raised in the flare and little of the sink was taken out, flying the aircraft onto the runway. This pattern usually carries through to a firm touchdown with a noticeable sink rate.
Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: a smoothly reducing sink through the normal flare band, not a steady rate into the runway.
Make sure that you retract the landing gear once you have a positive rate of climb and there is no usable runway left to land back on.

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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,726 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 598 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Taxiing from the parking area to the runway at LIPB Bolzano Airport took less than a minute, covering a short distance of less than one nautical mile. The aircraft then began its departure roll on runway 01, utilizing 62% of the 1,267-meter runway to achieve a takeoff distance of 767 meters. Liftoff speed was reached at 122 knots, with a local temperature of 22°C and a gentle tailwind of 6 knots.
As the aircraft climbed away from Bolzano, it transitioned into an enroute climb, ascending from 1,815 feet above sea level to 20,081 feet in just 9 minutes, covering a distance of 32 nautical miles. The climb was characterized by a significant increase in altitude, with a total ascent of 18,266 feet. Following a brief level cruise phase, the aircraft began its enroute descent, reducing altitude from 20,076 feet to 2,124 feet in 9 minutes, while covering 44 nautical miles. The descent was followed by another level cruise phase, this time lasting 4 minutes and covering 14 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 22R at LIPZ Venice Marco Polo Airport was initiated from the north-east, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 223.0° at 4 nautical miles from the threshold. The landing was executed with a threshold speed of 117 knots, and the aircraft touched down 172 meters beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 111 knots. The touchdown rate was smooth, at -132 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The total landing distance was 928 meters, representing 33% of the 2,772-meter runway. Following a perfect runway rollout alignment, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, completing the flight with a total distance of 103 nautical miles and a fuel consumption of 252 kilograms.
The final approach to runway 22R at LIPZ Venice Marco Polo Airport from the north east was executed with precision, with the aircraft heading 223.0° at 4 nm and 1,349 ft above ground level. The approach quality was excellent, with a smooth descent and a steady rate of descent. The threshold height at 66 ft above ground level was above the target, indicating a slightly higher than desired approach path angle.
As the aircraft touched down on the runway, the touchdown speed of 111 kt was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -132 fpm was smooth, indicating a well-controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, with the aircraft centered on the runway. The touchdown point was 172 m beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively short distance. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 18 °C and a wind of 11 kt at 169°, contributed to a relatively straightforward landing.
The total landing distance of 928 m, which is 33% of the runway length, was within the acceptable range. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, with the aircraft maintaining its centerline alignment throughout the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was executed with precision and control, resulting in a score of 90.9%.
