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 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 7,392 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 996 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Cessna 750 Citation X taxied from the parking area to runway 18L at KTUL Tulsa International Airport. The taxi-out required 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 18L the aircraft accelerated to a takeoff distance of 2,551 ft, representing 26 % of the runway length, and lifted off at 136 kt. Local weather reported a temperature of 62 °F, wind 2 kt from 270°, a crosswind component of 2 kt and no headwind.
Climb commenced 1 mile south of KTUL, with the aircraft ascending from 1,658 ft asl to 24,602 ft asl, an increase of 22,944 ft achieved in 9 minutes while covering 52 nm.
The first level cruise began 5 miles south of 5OK0 Kits Airport Hydro and continued for 49 minutes, during which 411 nm were flown.
Descent started 4 miles north-east of Hazel Green, dropping from 25,006 ft asl to 3,756 ft asl, a loss of 21,250 ft in 12 minutes over a distance of 75 nm.
A second cruise segment was initiated 3 miles east of Soddy-Daisy, lasting 5 minutes and covering 19 nm.
The subsequent descent began 3 miles north-east of Soddy-Daisy, reducing altitude from 3,756 ft asl to 1,939 ft asl, a decrease of 1,817 ft in 3 minutes across 10 nm.
Final approach to runway 20 at KCHA Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport was executed from the north, on a heading of 197.0°, at 4 nm and 1,250 ft agl.
Landing on runway 20, whose length is 7,392 ft, was achieved with a threshold speed of 109 kt. Touchdown occurred 988 ft down the runway at 103 kt, with a touchdown rate of minus 232 fpm and a runway touchdown position 22 ft off the centreline. The total landing distance was 2,576 ft, representing 35 % of the runway. Local conditions at the time were temperature 59 °F, wind 2 kt from 270°, crosswind 2 kt and headwind 1 kt.
Runway rollout alignment was very good.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in less than 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm.
In total the flight covered 574 nm, required 84 minutes of elapsed time, and used 0 lbs of fuel.
The Cessna 750 Citation X approached runway 20 at KCHA Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport from the north on a final approach heading 197.0° at 4 nm and 1,250 ft agl. Local conditions were temperature 59 °F, wind 2 kt from 270°, with a 2 kt crosswind component and a 1 kt head-wind.
The aircraft maintained a good threshold height and the threshold speed was slightly below target at 109 kt.
Touchdown occurred 988 ft down the runway at a speed of 103 kt, both rated good. The touchdown rate was fair at minus 232 fpm and the touchdown point was slightly misaligned by 22 ft from the centreline.
The total landing distance was 2,576 ft, representing 35 % of the 7,392 ft runway, and the rollout alignment was very good.
To refine the already strong performance, focus on moderating the flare to reduce the descent rate and on minor adjustments to achieve exact centreline alignment at touchdown.
