Smooth the climb
A good takeoff has a defined shape. It also has a defined end. For an airliner that's thrust reduction and acceleration, commonly somewhere around 1,000 to 1,500 ft above the airfield depending on the operator, while for a light aircraft it's established at Vy with the flaps on schedule. Most simmers have no defined end to their takeoff, which is exactly why it never gets judged.

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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,790 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 353 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Reichelsheim Airfield (EDFB) served as the departure point for the Bonanza G36, which taxi-ed from the parking area to runway 36 in less than one minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nm. The takeoff roll measured 504 m, representing 39 % of the available runway, and the aircraft achieved liftoff speed of 74 kt. At departure, the temperature was 32 °C, with a wind of 10 kt from 61°, producing a crosswind of 9 kt and a headwind of 4 kt.
During the climb phase, the aircraft ascended from 737 ft to 2,116 ft, an increase of 1,379 ft over 3 minutes while covering 7 nm. The cruise segment began over Nidderau, lasting 6 minutes and covering 18 nm. Descent commenced over Kriftel, with the aircraft descending from 1,401 ft to 423 ft, a decrease of 978 ft in 2 minutes and covering 4 nm. A go-around was executed on runway 07L at Frankfurt Airport (EDDF) at 87 ft AGL.
The final approach to runway 07L at Frankfurt Airport was conducted from the southwest, heading 69.0°, at 1 nm and 183 ft AGL. Landing occurred on a runway 2,797 m long, with a touchdown speed of 74 kt and a touchdown distance of 358 m. The touchdown rate was smooth at minus 123 fpm, and the touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.1 m from the centreline. The total landing distance was 565 m, representing 20 % of the runway. The overall flight covered 32 nm, took 13 minutes, and consumed 9 kg of fuel.
Approach to runway 07L at EDDF Frankfurt Airport was conducted from the south west, with the aircraft on a heading of 69.0° at 1 nm and 183 ft above ground level. The final approach speed exceeded the target, reaching 92 kt at threshold.
Touchdown occurred at 74 kt, a little fast, with a touchdown distance of 358 m and a descent rate of minus 123 fpm. The touchdown point was 6.1 m off the centreline. The total landing distance was 565 m, representing 20 % of the 2,797 m runway.
Wind conditions were 13 kt from 80°, providing a 13 kt headwind and a 2 kt crosswind. Temperature was 33 °C. The runway rollout alignment was very good.
