Improve the rollout
Ground control varies with speed, full authority at walking pace, progressively reducing as groundspeed rises. The aircraft becomes twitchy at any speed, every small pedal input swings the nose, which can encourage large-amplitude leg inputs that no real aircraft would accept.

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 2,402 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 625 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 7 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Cessna Longitude, then departed from runway 29 at EDFQ Allendorf-Eder Airfield. The takeoff distance was 411 meters, which accounted for 33% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 117 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 2 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 12 knots from a direction of 286 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 12 knots. The aircraft climbed to an altitude of 21,400 feet above sea level, increasing its altitude by 19,242 feet in just 4 minutes and covering a distance of 8 nautical miles.
The enroute climb started overhead Allendorf, a town in Hessen, Germany, and continued until the aircraft reached its cruising altitude. The enroute level cruise began 1 mile north of Biedenkopf, another town in Hessen, Germany, and lasted for 19 minutes, covering a distance of 142 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its descent from an altitude of 21,398 feet above sea level to 3,455 feet above sea level. This decrease in altitude of 17,943 feet took 13 minutes and covered a distance of 50 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 24 at EDJA Memmingen Allgau Airport was made from the north-east, with the aircraft heading 244.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,363 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway.
The landing on runway 24 was successful, with the touchdown point being 177 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 100 knots, which was good, and the touchdown rate was also good at -161 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 9.1 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -4 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 6 knots from a direction of 260 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 5 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,150 meters, which accounted for 48% of the runway. Unfortunately, the runway rollout alignment was excessively misaligned by 59.4 meters from the centerline. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 206 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 43 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 796 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Cessna Longitude aircraft successfully landed at EDJA Memmingen Allgau Airport, achieving an overall score of 85.9%. The final approach to runway 24 was initiated from the north east, with a heading of 244.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,363 feet above ground level.
The aircraft touched down on the runway, with a threshold speed that was well above the target at 120 knots. However, the touchdown point was located 177 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating a slight deviation from the intended landing spot. The touchdown speed of 100 knots was considered good, and the touchdown rate of -161 feet per minute was also satisfactory.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -4°C, with a wind speed of 6 knots from a direction of 260°. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 5 knots. Despite these conditions, the aircraft's landing performance was not significantly impacted.
However, there were some areas for improvement in the landing. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 9.1 meters from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was excessively misaligned by 59.4 meters from the centerline. This suggests that the aircraft may have drifted off course during the landing roll, potentially due to factors such as wind or pilot error.
Overall, the Cessna Longitude aircraft demonstrated good landing performance, but there are opportunities for improvement in terms of alignment and touchdown point accuracy.
