Top opportunity

Avoid steep turns at low altitude

Departure Climb 3

Below a thousand feet the aeroplane is slow, heavy and close to the ground. A steep turn loses lift, raises the stall speed and flattens the climb just when the gradient matters most. A normal turn on course is a rate one — fifteen degrees or so, twenty-five at the outside, this penalty is to acknowledge when a turn has stopped being a turn and become a manoeuvre.

Landing Summary

First and foremost, congratulations on achieving an overall landing score of 94.6%! This is a remarkable accomplishment and demonstrates a high level of skill and proficiency in aircraft handling.

Let's break down the analysis of each phase of the landing to further understand areas of improvement.

During the Approach Phase, it is noted that there were discrepancies in the descent path above the glideslope limit and poor heading alignment. It is crucial to maintain precision in both vertical and horizontal aspects during the approach phase to ensure a smooth transition into the landing phase. Consider fine-tuning your descent path and headings to better align with the designated approach path.

Moving on to the Landing Phase, it is encouraging to see that the threshold height and landing flare were executed perfectly. However, there were concerns regarding bank angle stability during landing. Maintaining a stable bank angle is essential for a safe and controlled landing. Practice incorporating smoother and more controlled turns to improve bank angle stability.

In the Touchdown Phase, it is commendable that the touchdown rate was perfect and speed was on target. Additionally, landing within the touchdown zone showcases precision and accuracy. However, there is room for improvement in touchdown distance from the centreline. Aim to consistently land closer to the centreline to enhance overall landing performance.

Lastly, in the Rollout Phase, aligning the aircraft with the runway is crucial for a smooth rollout. While the runway alignment was close to the centreline, strive for precise alignment to ensure optimal control during the rollout phase.

In conclusion, your landing score of 94.6% reflects a high level of proficiency as a pilot. By focusing on improving descent path, heading alignment, bank angle stability, touchdown distance, and runway alignment, you can further enhance your landing skills and strive for even higher scores in the future. Keep up the excellent work and continue to practice diligently to refine your techniques. Well done!
