Flight Score
Departure
Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.
What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 6.7 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Steepen your descent on final to regain the glideslope, aiming to cross the threshold at 50 ft agl.
What happened: You were high on the glideslope during the approach; carrying that extra energy down to the runway usually leaves the threshold speed fast too, as it was here at 117 kt, 9 kt above target.
Watch for: Watch the glideslope indicator on final, holding it centered all the way to the threshold at 50 ft.
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 1,000 ft gate: sink rate 1,366 fpm, more than the glideslope needed, glideslope 4.2° against the runway's 3° and centreline 9.9° off, against a 1° limit.
At the 500 ft gate: glideslope 4.0° against the runway's 3°, centreline 5.5° off, against a 1° limit and speed 17 kt FAST on the reference speed of 108 kt.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,871 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 23 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Zürich Airport (LSZH), the Phenom 300E began its journey with a smooth taxiing phase from the parking area to the runway, taking approximately 3 minutes to cover less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then accelerated down runway 28, lifting off at a speed of 122 knots after a takeoff distance of 685 meters, which accounted for 28% of the runway length. The local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 22°C, with a gentle headwind of 11 knots and a crosswind of 3 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to cruising altitude, it passed overhead Rumlang, Switzerland, and continued to ascend to 40,005 feet above sea level, a gain of 37,595 feet in just 13 minutes, covering a distance of 75 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise phase began overhead Goschenen, Switzerland, and lasted for 163 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a significant distance of 935 nautical miles. The descent phase started 10 miles northwest of Plaka, Greece, and took 18 minutes to descend from 39,999 feet to 1,691 feet above sea level, covering a distance of 75 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 33 at Santorini Airport (LGSR) was conducted from the southeast, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 341.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,601 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown distance of 348 meters, well within the runway length of 2,129 meters. The touchdown speed of 117 knots was also within the target range, and the touchdown rate of -83 feet per minute was excellent. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline, and the runway rollout alignment was also slightly off-centre. The total landing distance was 814 meters, accounting for 38% of the runway length. After a short taxiing phase of 1 minute, covering less than 1 nautical mile, the aircraft arrived at the parking area, having completed a total flight distance of 1,090 nautical miles, using 1,342 kilograms of fuel in the process, and lasting a total of 155 minutes.
The aircraft touched down on runway 33 at LGSR Santorini Airport, with a good threshold height and a well-above-target threshold speed of 128 kt. The touchdown distance of 348 m was satisfactory, and the touchdown speed of 117 kt was within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate of -83 fpm was particularly impressive, demonstrating excellent control and precision during the landing phase.
However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline, deviating by 10.3 m. This deviation was also evident during the rollout phase, where the aircraft remained 10.5 m off-centreline. Despite these minor deviations, the overall landing performance was good, with the aircraft coming to rest within 38% of the runway length, covering a total distance of 814 m.
The approach quality was not explicitly assessed, but the landing score of 91.0% suggests a high level of proficiency. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 27 °C and a 10 kt headwind, may have contributed to the slightly higher threshold speed. Nevertheless, the pilot's ability to maintain control and precision throughout the landing phase was evident, despite the minor deviations from the centreline.
