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.

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 six 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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 12,795 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,312 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Dallas Fort Worth International Airport, the aircraft began its journey on runway 36R, where it achieved a takeoff distance of 5,466 feet, utilizing 41% of the available runway. The liftoff speed of 157 knots was reached, and the aircraft then transitioned into a climb phase. Initially, the aircraft climbed from an altitude of 1,659 feet above sea level to 25,010 feet, an increase of 23,350 feet, within a 10-minute period and covering a distance of 60 nautical miles.
As the aircraft continued its journey, it entered a level cruise phase, lasting 27 minutes and covering 227 nautical miles. This phase commenced 3 miles southeast of Lebanon, Oklahoma. Following the cruise phase, the aircraft began its descent, which started 8 miles south of Toronto, Kansas. The descent phase saw the aircraft decrease in altitude from 25,001 feet to 2,303 feet, a decrease of 22,698 feet, within a 15-minute period and covering 79 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered the final approach phase, aligning itself with runway 31 at Topeka Regional Airport, with a heading of 317.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,226 feet above ground level.
The aircraft landed on runway 31, with a touchdown distance of 1,314 feet, which was within acceptable limits. The touchdown speed of 98 knots and touchdown rate of -50 feet per minute were also within the desired parameters. However, the runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 53 feet from the centerline. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking 1 minute and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 375 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 63 minutes, with no fuel consumption reported.
The aircraft, C750, successfully executed a final approach to runway 31 at KFOE Topeka Regional Airport from the south east, aligning with the runway heading of 317.0° at a distance of 4 nm and an altitude of 1,226 ft above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height achieved. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 109 kt, indicating a minor deviation from the optimal landing conditions.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft demonstrated good performance, with a touchdown distance of 1,314 ft and a touchdown speed of 98 kt, both of which were within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate was particularly impressive, with an excellent rate of -50 fpm. Despite these positive characteristics, the runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 53 ft from the centreline, which may have contributed to the subsequent rollout issues. Local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 59 °F and a light headwind of 1 kt.
The total landing distance of 3,306 ft was 26% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing. However, the runway rollout alignment was again misaligned by 55 ft from the centreline, suggesting that the pilot may have struggled to maintain a stable alignment during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing performance was satisfactory, with a score of 92.4%, but areas for improvement were identified in terms of approach alignment and rollout stability.
