Work on the flare
Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 820 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 820 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 442 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from EVDU Griva Airfield, the Tecnam P2006T MKII aircraft began its takeoff roll on runway 31. The aircraft accelerated to a liftoff speed of 71 kt, achieving lift-off in a distance of 417 m, which accounted for 51% of the available runway length. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 25 °C and a wind speed of 0 kt.
As the aircraft transitioned to the enroute phase, it began its initial climb 1 mile northwest of EVDU Griva Airfield, reaching an altitude of 1,687 ft asl. The climb rate was impressive, with an increase of 922 ft in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nm. The aircraft then began its descent over Daugavpils, reducing its altitude by 1,060 ft in 2 minutes, while covering a distance of 3 nm. The enroute climb phase was repeated, with the aircraft ascending from 632 ft asl to 840 ft asl, an increase of 209 ft in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nm.
The final approach to runway 31 at EVDU Griva Airfield was initiated from the south east, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 334.0 ° at 1 nm and 526 ft agl. However, the touchdown speed was slightly higher than desired at 90 kt, resulting in a touchdown point that utilized more than 50% of the available runway. The touchdown speed of 64 kt was satisfactory, but the touchdown rate of -248 fpm was only fair. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 13.7 m from the centreline, and the runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 17.9 m from the centreline. The total landing distance was 656 m, accounting for 80% of the runway length. The total flight distance was 13 nm, and the aircraft consumed 4 kg of fuel during the flight.
The final approach to runway 31 at EVDU Griva Airfield from the south east was initiated at 1 nm and 526 ft above ground level, heading 334.0°. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height achieved. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the desired level, reaching 90 kt. This may have contributed to the aircraft's touchdown point being located further down the runway than ideal, utilizing more than 50% of the available 820 m of runway.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was 64 kt, which was within the acceptable range. The touchdown rate of -248 fpm was fair, indicating a moderate deceleration. Unfortunately, the runway touchdown position was not aligned with the centreline, deviating by 13.7 m. This misalignment persisted during the rollout phase, with the aircraft remaining 17.9 m off-centreline. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 25 °C and a calm wind, did not pose any significant challenges to the landing.
The total landing distance of 656 m was 80% of the available runway length, indicating a satisfactory but not exceptional performance. Overall, the landing was scored 77.3%, reflecting a good but not outstanding execution of the landing procedure.
