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.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate for a circuit: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate is an instrument-approach check and does not apply.
Side view — the last 600 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 600 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 108 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight in the Sirius aircraft began with a departure roll on runway 21 at EGFE Haverfordwest Airport. The takeoff distance was 188 meters, which accounted for 18% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 70 knots. The local weather at the time of departure was 15°C with a wind of 1 knot coming from 270°, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind.
After takeoff, the aircraft entered a right-hand pattern entry from runway 21 at EGFE Haverfordwest Airport, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 22 seconds. Subsequently, there was a right-hand pattern crosswind from runway 21, covering a distance of less than 1 nm in 30 seconds.
During the pattern, the aircraft made a downwind turn at a distance of 1 nm with an angle to the runway of 68.2°. The downwind leg was covered in less than 1 nm in 26 seconds. The base leg turn occurred at a distance of 1 nm with an angle to the runway of 63.8°, followed by the base leg being covered in less than 1 nm in 25 seconds. The final turn was completed in less than 1 nm in 67 seconds.
The final approach to runway 27 at EGFE Haverfordwest Airport was from the east, heading 269.0° at 1 nm and 328 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 27, which has a length of 600 meters, was successful. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was efficient at 52 knots. The touchdown distance was 105 meters, with a touchdown speed of 48 knots and a perfect touchdown rate of -46 ft/min. The runway touchdown alignment was also deemed perfect. The weather conditions during landing included a temperature of 15°C, with a wind of 1 knot coming from 270°, resulting in a negligible crosswind and a headwind of 1 knot.
Overall, the total flight distance covered was 6 nm, taking 6 minutes and using 0 kg of fuel. The flight showcased smooth takeoff, pattern maneuvers, and a successful landing, demonstrating proficient piloting skills in handling the Sirius aircraft.
