Improve the takeoff
See Departure Roll
The rudder input is a changing profile through the roll rather than one that is held. So the demand on your right foot starts large at power application, eases as speed builds and the rudder gains authority, then jumps again at rotation.

From brake release to the end of the climb, against time, then the takeoff point by point.
Lifted off at 134 kt with 3.9° of pitch.
Two traces from brake release: the airspeed on top, and below it the pitch, which is how far the nose is above the horizon. The figure at liftoff is the pitch then. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, the part of the climb scored on holding the climb speed.
The takeoff, point by point
Side view from the start of the roll to the end of Climb 3 at 578 ft.
Reached 35 ft with 5,559 ft of runway left; then climbing at 1,350 fpm on average to 578 ft.
The takeoff from the side: the height above the runway against the distance along it. The numbers along the runway are the speeds reached at each point. Lifting off in the amber last quarter of the runway costs marks for the roll length. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, scored on its average speed against the target.
Plan view the roll down the 9,858 ft runway.
Rolled from 150 ft in, drifted right of the centreline, 6 ft at the widest, and lifted off 6 ft right. Airborne 27 % of the way down the runway, before the 75 % line.
The roll from above, with your left at the top. The line is where the wheels went, and "widest" is the furthest you drifted off the centreline. Lifting off before the amber 75 % line gets full marks for the roll length. The arrow beside the runway is the crosswind, pointing the way the air was moving, so it pushed the aircraft that way.
The final from 4 nm.
Profile height against the 2.7° glideslope, with its 1° band in green.
High from 2.6 nm, where the final began, to 2.2 nm (up to 630 ft over), then back on it to 0.5 nm, then low to the threshold (up to 70 ft under).
Your height above the runway against the distance still to go. The glideslope is the steady descent path to the aiming point, 1,000 ft past the threshold: 2.7° here, which is about 290 ft for every nautical mile out, crossing the threshold at about 50 ft. The row under the distances is the height it puts you at. Inside the green band your path is drawn green; outside it, amber.
Plan distance off the extended centreline, your left at the top, with the 1° band. Sideways distances are drawn 3× larger than distances along the final.
Joined 2,420 ft left of the centreline at 2.6 nm.
Looking down from above, flying left to right towards the runway: up the page is left of the centreline, down is right. Sideways distances are stretched so that small drifts show, so a line that looks wild here may be only a few tens of feet. The labels are how far off you were at each distance, amber when outside the band.
Speed against the approach speed. The green band runs from 5 kt slow to 32 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 18 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.
Fast from 2.6 nm, where the final began, to 1.7 nm (up to +57 kt), then inside the band to the threshold.
Your indicated airspeed down the final, against the approach speed for this aircraft at its landing weight. The band allows 5 kt slow and more on the fast side further out, closing as you get lower, because the speed is expected to come off on the way down. The figures are knots above (+) or below (−) the approach speed.
Over the threshold
Touchdown
3 kt across from the right, which takes about 1° of crab to hold the centreline at 124 kt. Touched down with the nose 2° into wind, wings level.
Wind 200° at 7 kt · 6 kt head · 3 kt across
The wind is the one recorded at the landing, split along the runway (headwind or tailwind) and across it. To hold the centreline in a crosswind the nose points a little into wind - the crab - and is straightened with rudder just before the wheels touch, often with the into-wind wing lowered to stop the drift. These are the nose against the direction you were actually moving, and the wings, at the moment of touchdown. Shown for reading; not marked.
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Crossed the threshold at 31 ft, 19 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 1,785 ft in, 785 ft past the ideal 1,000 ft.
The last stretch of the approach and the touchdown, from the side. The height is stretched so that the last few feet show: 80 ft top to bottom, against 5,000 ft across. The dashed line is the ideal, 50 ft over the threshold and down 1,000 ft in. The flare ring is where you began raising the nose, and "descent slowed" is where the sink came off; the figures beside them are the sink rate, pitch and speed at that point.
Sink and pitch — through the flare, lined up with the side view.
The sink went from 400 fpm at 30 ft to 190 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 2.4° on the way down.
Lined up with the side view above, so a point on one sits under the same point of the other. On top, how fast you were coming down: 0 is level, and −600 is 600 ft a minute down. Below, the pitch. In a flare the nose comes up and the descent slows towards 0. The figure at the touchdown line is your touchdown rate.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 9,858 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 15 ft left of the centreline, and steered back to 0 ft left by the end of the rollout.
The runway from above, with your left at the top. Touching down inside the green bracket scores full marks for the distance. The shaded part is the rollout, up to where it ended. The arrow beside the runway is the crosswind, pointing the way the air was moving, so it pushed the aircraft that way.
Touched down 1,785 ft past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The 1.28 G arrival bounced 2 times.
The rest of the report
The B-2 Spirit aircraft began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 3 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. Once on the runway, the aircraft departed from runway 15 at UWWW Kurumoch International Airport, with a takeoff distance of 2,591 feet, which accounted for 26% of the runway's length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 135 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 36 °F and wind speeds of 7 knots at 199 degrees. The crosswind was 5 knots, while the headwind was 6 knots. The enroute climb began 1 mile southeast of the airport, where the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 1,012 feet above sea level to 1,079 feet, an increase of 67 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles.
Upon reaching the desired altitude, the aircraft began its final approach to runway 15 at UWWW Kurumoch International Airport, heading in a northerly direction at an altitude of 638 feet above ground level and a distance of 2 nautical miles from the runway. The aircraft maintained a steady course, preparing for a smooth landing.
The landing itself was executed with precision, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 124 knots, which was within the target range. The touchdown point was 413 feet beyond the touchdown zone, but the touchdown rate was good at -190 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 17 feet from the centerline, but the runway rollout alignment was very good.
The total landing distance was 4,470 feet, accounting for 45% of the runway's length. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, a process that took 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 9 nautical miles, and the aircraft used 1,886 pounds of fuel during the entire journey, which took approximately 8 minutes to complete.
