Avoid steep turns at low altitude
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.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: five 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.
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,114 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 246 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Congratulations on achieving a landing score of 97.1%! Your overall performance during the different phases of the landing was impressive, with only a few areas that could be improved upon.
During the Approach Phase, you had a descent path that was slightly below the glideslope limit and your speed was slightly below target. While these are minor issues, they could potentially be improved by being more attentive to your speed and altitude adjustments during the approach.
In the Landing Phase, you had a good threshold height and a perfect landing flare, which indicates that your technique and timing were spot on. However, the touchdown phase had a very hard touchdown rate, which could be something to work on in future landings. It's important to focus on achieving a smoother touchdown to minimize wear and tear on the aircraft.
Despite the hard touchdown rate, your speed was on target during the Touchdown Phase and you landed within the touchdown zone. The runway touchdown position was slightly off from the centerline, so paying attention to your alignment during the final stages of the landing could help improve your overall score.
One area of concern was the fact that you landed with a 3 knot tailwind, which is not recommended as it can affect the aircraft's handling and control. In future landings, be sure to always land into the wind when possible to ensure a safe and stable touchdown.
Overall, your Rollout Phase had very good runway alignment, which shows that you were able to maintain control and direction during the rollout. Keep up the good work and continue to focus on areas for improvement to further enhance your landing performance. Well done on a great landing score and keep striving for excellence in your future flights!
