Flight Score
Arrival
Be established on the glideslope before the gate, with small corrections made early rather than a large one late.
What happened: The approach was off the glideslope at the stabilisation gate.
Watch for: Glideslope indication at the gate
See Arrival Approach
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 2,135 fpm, more than the glideslope needed, glideslope 6.0° against the runway's 3° and wings 12° of bank, against a 10° limit.
At the 500 ft gate: glideslope 5.6° against the runway's 3°.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,097 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 1,097 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 253 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The TBM 850 taxied from the parking area to runway 02 at LFBT Tarbes-Lourdes-Pyrénées Airport, a movement that lasted 12 minutes and covered 3 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 02, the aircraft accelerated to a liftoff speed of 94 kt and became airborne after a takeoff distance of 296 m, representing 13 % of the runway; ambient temperature was 16 °C with a wind of 2 kt from 270°, a 2 kt cross-wind component and a 1 kt tail-wind.
The climb commenced overhead Juillan, climbing from 2 136 ft asl to 18 999 ft asl, an altitude gain of 16 863 ft achieved in 12 minutes while covering 30 nm.
Level cruise began 4 mi east of Campan and continued for 13 minutes, during which the aircraft traversed 61 nm.
Descent started 2 mi north-east of Talarn, descending from 18 993 ft asl to 4 309 ft asl, a loss of 14 684 ft in 10 minutes and covering 43 nm.
A second cruise segment was initiated 1 mi south of Fonollosa, lasting 8 minutes and encompassing 21 nm of flight.
The final approach to runway 13 at LELL Sabadell Airfield involved a descent from 2 572 ft agl to 272 ft agl over 110 seconds, with the aircraft scoring on the stabilisation gates.
Landing on runway 13 was executed with a threshold speed of 94 kt; touchdown occurred 253 m down the runway at 82 kt and a firm rate of minus 362 fpm, with perfect alignment; the runway length is 1 097 m, the total landing distance measured 575 m (52 % of the runway), and local weather reported a temperature of 15 °C, wind 2 kt from 270°, a 1 kt cross-wind and a 2 kt tail-wind.
Runway rollout alignment remained perfect as the aircraft decelerated to a stop.
The TBM 850 taxied from the runway to the parking area in 2 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 164 nm, required 54 minutes of elapsed time, and consumed 141 kg of fuel.
The aircraft TBM 850 commenced the final approach to runway 13 at LELL Sabadell Airfield with an unstable assessment at the 1,000 ft gate, noting a sink rate too high and deviation off the glideslope; the descent progressed from 2,572 ft agl to 272 ft agl in 110 seconds and was scored on the stabilisation gates.
At threshold the aircraft maintained a good threshold height and a good threshold speed of 94 kt, establishing the aim point approximately 300 m down the runway.
Touchdown occurred 253 m from the threshold with a good touchdown speed of 82 kt, a firm touchdown rate of minus 362 fpm, and perfect runway touchdown alignment; the total landing distance measured 575 m, representing 52 % of the 1,097 m runway.
Rollout proceeded with perfect runway alignment and the aircraft remained on the centreline for the remainder of the roll.
To improve the already strong 89.5 % score, focus on achieving a stabilized approach by moderating sink rate and maintaining the glideslope through the 1,000 ft gate, and refine the flare to lessen the firm touchdown rate while preserving the precise aim point.
