Improve the takeoff
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.

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 seven 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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,094 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 241 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The TBM 850 taxied from the parking area to runway 08 at EGJJ Jersey Airport in a period of 22 minutes, covering a ground distance of 4 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 08, the aircraft accelerated to a liftoff speed of 91 kt and became airborne after a takeoff run of 645 m, representing 39 % of the runway length; local conditions were 16 °C with a wind of 2 kt from 270°, no cross-wind and a 2 kt tail-wind component.
The climb commenced 1 mile east of EGJJ, with the aircraft ascending from 1,370 ft asl to 15,010 ft asl-a gain of 13,640 ft-over 10 minutes while traversing 22 nm.
The first level cruise began 16 nm north of Saint-Malo, lasted 3 minutes and covered 14 nm at cruise altitude.
A descent segment started 2 nm north of Saint-Coulomb, during which altitude fell from 14,933 ft asl to 3,488 ft asl, a loss of 11,444 ft in 8 minutes while the aircraft covered 33 nm.
The next cruise phase originated 1 nm south of Erce-pres-Liffre, persisted for 3 minutes and spanned 10 nm.
A subsequent descent began 1 nm south-west of Chateaubourg, with the aircraft descending from 3,489 ft asl to 2,329 ft asl, a reduction of 1,159 ft in 2 minutes over a distance of 5 nm.
A further level cruise was conducted overhead Chateaugiron, lasting 2 minutes and covering 5 nm.
On final approach to runway 28 at LFRN Rennes-Saint-Jacques Airport, the aircraft descended from 1,534 ft agl to 265 ft agl in 148 seconds, achieving the required stabilization criteria.
Landing on runway 28, which is 2,094 m long, the aircraft touched down at a threshold speed of 85 kt, with a touchdown distance of 239 m and a speed of 68 kt; the vertical speed at touchdown was a firm minus 334 fpm and alignment was very good. Weather at the time was 15 °C with a wind of 2 kt from 270°, no cross-wind and a 2 kt head-wind component.
The total landing roll measured 720 m, equivalent to 34 % of the runway, and the rollout alignment was perfect.
The TBM 850 taxied from the runway to the parking area in 2 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 97 nm, required 39 minutes of airborne time, and consumed 18 kg of fuel.
The TBM 850 approached runway 28 at LFRN Rennes-Saint-Jacques with a stabilised profile at the 1,000 ft gate; gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope, centreline and speed were all within limits and the descent from 1,534 ft agl to 265 ft agl was completed in 148 seconds, earning scores on the stabilisation gates.
At threshold the height was good and the threshold speed was slightly below target at 85 kt.
Touchdown occurred 239 m down the runway at a speed of 68 kt; the vertical rate was firm at -334 fpm and runway-touchdown alignment was very good.
The aircraft rolled out over a total landing distance of 720 m, representing 34 % of the 2,094 m runway, and rollout alignment was perfect.
To bring the already high score of 95.2 % to its maximum, aim to achieve the target threshold speed and refine flare timing to lessen the firm touchdown rate.
